Grantsville vs. Millard

Week three of the Cowboy Football season took a different direction than most expected.

We hosted Millard in Cowboy Stadium. Millard is one of the elite football programs in the state regardless of classification. They have the second most State Championships, second only to Skyline High of Salt Lake City. They were up on us 19 to 0 before we woke-up. Afterwards, it was a hard fought battle losing to Millard 33 to 14. A close friend of mine said it best when he said, "You didn't play bad you played young." Since the opening kick off against Wasatch our youth and lack of experience have been our challenge. Like in the Wasatch game our boys grew up and learned a lot that night.

As a coaching staff we believe pre-season is a time for growth and learning. The cowboy squad has done this. After the Millard game we had a bye last week; we have used the time to prepare for our long time rival Morgan. We will be ready for the battle that exists when these two teams take the field against one another. You don't want to miss this one.

Thanks for Your Support,
Coach Tony Cloward
