A police car and an SUV were blocking the road. The police officer boarded the bus and said to the team, 'It's days like this that make me proud to be a police officer in Trafford.' He then offered a police escort to the high school to recognize what we had accomplished.

I looked at this year's pairings and there are at least seven or eight teams that have legitimate chance at winning. North Allegheny has an excellent team, and they'll be tough to beat.
beat expected knew large match north tough
I knew North Allegheny would be a tough match, because we don't match up very well with them. I never expected to beat Trinity by such a large margin.
anybody middle tight win won
Chris' win was huge. Anybody could have won this match. I thought we got a little tight in the middle weights.
