Preseason to real season
On Thursday night, the Indians traveled to one of our rival schools, Ft. Myers HS, where it is usually a very difficult atmosphere. The last time we won in there was in '04 to claim the Regional Championship and head off to the final 4. Thursday night did not disappoint as I witnessed one of the best comebacks in a long time out of a Venice squad. Down 2 to 1 in games and down 17-9 in the 4th game, it was all but over except for the VHS players who still believed. They came back to win 25-23. Spirits were high as we entered our 7th fifth game match of the year. Result.......Venice over a stunned Ft. Myers crowd 15-13. Now that everyone in the state has 0 wins and 0 losses, this is when it get really fun! Its called Playoffs. We will play a tough young Charlotte team Monday night at 7:00 in the TeePee. See you there.
