Eagles Close Season with Semifinal Loss

Few words can describe the ending to Apple Valley’s season. It came at the hands of the Eastview Lightning on Saturday night.  The Apple Valley Eagles played visitors to cross-town rival, Eastview, at the Sectional 3 Semi-Final game.  It was one of those games where Apple Valley could not get on track and Eastview dominated in all aspects.  There was hope going into the third quarter as the Lightning were winning only by two touchdowns at half.  However, bad went to worse as Eastview continued to put points on the board and the game ended 35 to 0.

 

To the seniors this will be the last football game suited up as an Apple Valley Eagle and for many the last football game ever.  The underclassman will start building for next year and creating memories of another season in the valley.  As with life, it is not always about winning but carrying your head high as you know you gave all you had on the field, at practice and in the weight room.  That is what “Friday Night Lights” is all about.  Now these young men will take these important life lessons and truly become stronger men because of them.

Apple Valley Stadium Walk of Fame

Walk of Fame bricks – You may have noticed bricks in the giant ‘AV’ near the concession area with the names of Apple Valley supporters (kids also, if you wish) engraved in them.  It’s been a few years since we have offered an opportunity to ‘sponsor a brick’, but we are doing it again this year.  We also plan to really spruce up the area, including painting the ‘AV’ outline and staining the concrete our school colors so the Walk will be much more prominent.  Cost for a brick is only $100 or $200, depending on the size of brick, and we take care of everything for you.  Immortalize your support of Valley sports.  Complete and return the attached form to participate.  Orders must be in no later than August 8 to have your brick in place for the upcoming season.  Spread the word to your friends and neighbors!
