Shawna Posted October 11, 2008 Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 Tommy's my nephew, and ranked 2nd in San Diego County. By Kevin Gemmell UNION-TRIBUNE STAFF WRITER October 11, 2008 SEAN M. HAFFEY / Union-Tribune In the six-year history of Westview varsity football, nothing has warranted a field storming. Last night that all changed, as the Wolverines shocked No. 7 Valley Center 20-16 on a last-minute touchdown, skyrocketing the program into legitimacy and giving the homecoming crowd a reason to hop the fences. Tommy Hansen's 24-yard touchdown pass to Tyler Musco with 53 seconds remaining capped a winning drive that spanned 81 yards, overcame a fourth-and-10 and kept the Wolverines (5-0, 2-0) undefeated. “It's amazing,†said Hansen, who stood with arms raised at the 50-yard line with the student body mobbing him. “This is so big for our school. It just shows how a football team can bring everyone together.†Several Westview players fell to the ground in tears. Others hugged and mugged it up for their fans – soaking in the defining moment of a program still in its infancy. “We told (Hansen) he'd have one more chance to win it,†said Westview coach Mike Woodward. “That final drive was unbelievable. It wasn't his greatest game. But he played with confidence and courage on that final drive.†It was Hansen's worst game of the season, statistically speaking. He completed 19-of-47 passes for 219 yards and three interceptions. But he also threw three touchdowns – none bigger than the final one. “Everything just seemed to slow down,†said Musco, who split two defenders and went untouched in the end zone. “They said if I beat my man, the seam would open up. All I had to do was catch it.†While the offense stalled until the second half, the defense was phenomenal – sacking Valley Center quarterback Tyler Bernard six times, knocking down three passes and allowing three points in the first half. But Valley Center (4-1, 0-1) rallied in the fourth quarter, scoring on a 7-yard touchdown pass from Bernard to Jeremy Dozier and again on a 67-yard run from Stanton Upson, giving them a 16-13 lead after the missed PAT. Valley Center failed to convert deep in Westview's territory on fourth-and-1, turning the ball over with 2:28 to play and setting up the dramatic finish. “I'm sure a lot of people doubted us,†Woodward said. “Hopefully we proved something tonight.†Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shawna Posted October 12, 2008 Report Share Posted October 12, 2008 Congrats Shawna, how old is he? Thanks! He's a junior, and he's been playing varsity since 10th grade. He'll be getting scouted next year, for sure, and when he goes pro, I have an in to the big leagues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucky Posted October 12, 2008 Report Share Posted October 12, 2008 (edited) I can't believe we lost that game. Mizzou lost theirs as well. It was sad. Shawna we searched for the local high school highlights, and found we'd missed 'em. I'll pay more attention next week!!

Shawna Posted October 12, 2008 Report Share Posted October 12, 2008 By all means, allow me to remedy that. Here is a clip on the local news that my brother forwarded to me.

Lucky Posted October 12, 2008 Report Share Posted October 12, 2008 He wasn't too fired up, was he?? Good for him! The unseen reporter getting the interview was probably my next door neighbor. He's the field reporter for the high school Pig Skin Report. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uncle Joe Posted October 16, 2008 Report Share Posted October 16, 2008 Farin, Fin...soccer fans out there....I have a question. What's it called when a player kicks the ball through the legs of another player? This question was on "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire" today. I guessed and got it right. The choices were: A-Cinnamon B-Pepper C-Curry D- Nutmeg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farin Posted October 16, 2008 Report Share Posted October 16, 2008 I have to admit, I have no idea how to say that... if I had to guess I would say D, but that's really just a guess in German that's called "jmd. tunneln" (to tunnel s.o.) but regardless of what's the right choice I'm really looking forward to the explanation, why it's called that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Joe Posted October 16, 2008 Report Share Posted October 16, 2008 It's D-nutmeg. They didn't give an explanation. The nut part offers one clue...but, nah. That couldn't be it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
