The G8 Football Team’s Journey to the EMASS Super Bowl (Part 3 of 3)

We have a special 3 part series to highlight the 3 teams for Franklin Panthers Youth Football who are playing in their respective Super Bowl games this weekend.

Part 3 of 3: the G8 Team

"We are incredibly proud to see our team reach the 8th grade Super Bowl this season. The core of this team has been together for many years, and this is their best season in their history.   

We have an incredibly strong roster, with depth at every position. We have two very talented quarterbacks, a deep stable of dangerous running backs, and a powerful offensive line that makes the entire offense click.  

It is said that defense wins championships, and ours has been one of the best defenses in the entire league, allowing only three touchdowns all season enroute to a 7–1 regular season record.  

But beyond football, our ambition is to develop good football players, but even better young men and women.  This is an incredibly high character group of athletes, and they live up to our team motto of “Iron Sharpens Iron”… A proverb that teaches us that we make each other better every day. 

We also rally behind the mantra of Everything is Earned, meaning nothing is given to us in life, but we must work and earn it.  It has been an honor to coach these outstanding athletes in their final year of youth football."
