For the last 3 years, my son (who you can see back in my photo-stream playing football) has been a high school football coach (defensive backs) for the Upperman High School Bees. This year, they made it all the way to the TSSAA 4A State Championship game in the Blue Cross Bowl in Chattanooga, Tennessee. This was the first ever appearance in the championship game by Upperman and they played the Pearl Cohn Firebirds out of Nashville, Tennessee. As you can see from the photograph above, it was a rainy, cold, dreary day in Chattanooga but we witnessed some great high school football between two teams hungry to take home a state title. Unfortunately, Upperman came up just short and lost to Pearl Cohn 36 - 27. Congratulations to the Firebirds but I am most proud of the fight in the Upperman Bees football team and the way that I've watched my son interact with his players throughout the season. I know that he is doing something that he loves & enjoys and that all makes me proud! Congratulations to him, the rest of the coaching staff, and all the players of the 14-1 state runner-up Upperman Bees Football Team...I'm already looking forward to next season! Go Bees!
