Tonight was the Homecoming Game. And AHS has been an unexpected 5-0 so far this year.<\/p>\n

At the end of the first half, the Arapahoe Warriors were down 24-7,<\/i> and Gateway was basically dominating the field. Our lone TD had as much to do with Gateway penalties as Arapahoe good play.<\/p>\n

With 3 minutes left in the second<\/i> half, AHS scored its third touchdown of the half, to bring the score to 28-24.<\/p>\n

With 12 seconds<\/i> left (when I took this picture, during a time out), Gateway was on the Arapahoe 2 yard line.<\/i><\/p>\n

And the Warriors held them, winning their Homecoming Game. Yay, team!<\/p>\n

(I personally credit the excellent halftime show by the marching band with getting the team back into a winning frame of mind. Harrumph!)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
