I have no connection, really, to Farmington High School, except that we live in the same town. Our neighbor's kids attend the school. My son would be attending, but we homeschool and he likes his teacher.
In the past, I'd watch a local high school game now and again. They broadcast them on Thursdays and Fridays in our market. They've been fun, but as far as on-field talent, let's just say, it's lacking, but that's as far as it goes. Those kids, coaches, and fans love their teams and you can see players play with passion. It's refreshing.
It's also the only football to watch right now.
Since my favorite college team has canceled the season until spring (I'd be surprised if they play at all...), there's high school ball. Other colleges are planning on playing this fall (again, I'd be surprised if they play at all...), and the NFL is planning on having games.
But, the upcoming games, pro and maybe college, will come with attachments. Will it come with passion? Time will tell, but on a warm summer Friday night in Farmington Utah, the boys in teal and black were victorious against their cross-county rivals.
And it was a lot of fun to watch.
