GCFPC WEEKLY UPDATE Game 4 – Denison University
GCFPC WEEKLY UPDATE
Game 4 – Denison University
The Bullets travel their longest distance of the season to Granville, Ohio to try to pick themselves up from -- let’s say a game we’d rather not talk about -- to avenge a home loss last year to the Big Red of Denison University.
NUTS AND BOLTS OF ATTENDING THE DENISON GAME / ALUMNI TAILGATE: Information was previously sent to the football parents regarding the pre-game Tailgate that will be hosted by a Gettysburg Ohio alumnus family. You needed to RSVP for this Tailgate by now. As it turns out, we football parents will account for about 40 of the 52 people attending the pre-game Tailgate! Since we are the bulk of this event, please try not to be too late for the 10:30 a.m. start.
Denison charges $4 for entrance to the game. This is our first time at Denison, so we do not know their policies, but most away teams who charge admission do allow players to reserve at least two “will call” tickets for family members, so remind your son to be alert to this (if this is in effect, your player needs to speak up for you).
For families staying at the Heath-Newark Hampton Inn, let’s try to get together informally on Friday evening at 9 p.m. or so. There is no restaurant / bar at the Hampton Inn, but there is an Olive Garden within walking distance, so we are told – let’s give that a shot. Safe travels to all attending!
LAST SATURDAY’S GAME: For the third week in a row, Gettysburg has garnered “player of the week” honors for the Centennial Conference – this week, Nate Smith as Co- Player of the Week for special teams. In addition, Harold Barton was named a CC “Outstanding Performer” on defense.
J.V. SCHEDULE: The J.V. “Team” (basically anyone who is not a starter) clobbered Dickinson this past Monday 48-8!
The remaining J.V. schedule is as follows:
Monday Sept. 26 -- Frostburg State at GC 4 p.m.
Monday Oct. 17 -- at Dickinson 3:30 p.m.
Monday Oct. 24 -- at Lebanon Valley 3:30 p.m.
CONCLUSION: The Bullets have a bye week next week, and return home for the Centennial Conference opener against McDaniel on October 8th -- pre and post game Tailgates in the Pavilion. Thanks to everyone who continue to make this season a great one for all GCFPC families.
