To all my Vernon Family: What a night Friday was. Our Vernon Lions likely put together their best performance of the year against the Burkburnett Bulldogs with a dominating performance. Winning will always be important to me yet how we approach and play the game matters significantly to me as well. Our kids showed up and played a very clean and disciplined game last night that reflects well on those kids and this entire community. Perhaps the real story of last night is with the band kids. They too submitted their best performance of the year. Due to lack of time remaining at halftime, I personally went to the band kids and shared with them the thought of us establishing a 5th quarter after the game for them to play. I was initially concerned with them not having fan support but a simple request for the football team, the cheerleaders, the students, and for the fans to remain after the contest to support them was easily obliged. This, I am learning is typical Vernon and I am so proud to be part of this community. I am very much aware of the disappointment of the individuals watching the stream from home not being able to watch the 5th quarter due to the stream being shut off. The termination of the stream is set before the game to stop when the clock hits 0:00. We will work to determine if there is a way around that as the 5th quarter had some unintended benefits. This however, should not diminish the obvious hard work of the kids to add so much diversity to their show since the last time they played. Much like the Colorado Buffaloes are now saying: We coming too!!!!
