Atlantic Central Football Conference/Independents

SU Backer · November 13, 2008, 10:30:45 PM

I would like you to be right Pa, I also hope my Gulls don't let down this week and let one slip away that they should take care of, or they may not even get a home ECAC game. 3 teams that SU beat this year look to be set for the playoffs-Albright, Christopher Newport, and St John Fisher. Thomas More lost to Geneva, a team that SU thoroughly whipped and TMC is in too. The playoffs don't always have the best 32 teams in the country, but if we would have beaten Del Valley I think we would have made it, so no one to blame, we just didn't get it done. I have not seen Millsaps, but if they are better than the Wesley team that played us they must be awesome. I am obviously not a Wesley fan but that team is loaded and I think they will win the South region. Good Luck to all the seniors Saturday and in the future. Go Gulls!

....Man, this season went by fast, didn't it?

Good luck in the Regent's SU Backer. And good luck on getting into the post seaon. I always like it when 50% of a conference make into the playoffs! 8)

Wesley has been at the top of the class in the ACFC and the South Region for a number of years now. I expect big things out of them throughout the playoffs.

On paper Salisbury shouldn't have any issues with FSU, but the game isn't played on paper. For whatever reason the Gulls have struggled when they are the favorite in the Regents Cup. Last season was a strong win for the SU. I see them cruising in this game and maybe sneaking in the backdoor of the playoffs. If not the field of 32 then I suspect the Gulls will be hosting an ECAC game.

I think if when they win Saturday they host a ECAC game....if they would slip up they probably travel to someone else's house to play. The ECAC game isn't so bad as a senior let's face it, unless you are Mount you probably won't finish with a win, and the ECAC game gives you a real good chance to go out with a W. I don't see the playoffs at all this year though. May all the athletes come out of their games healthy and GO GULLS!

well, here we are on the eve of my son's final game of the regular season. first, i would like to thank all the people whom i have met these past 4 + years in person, my life has been made richer by my contact with you. my son has really appreciated all the compliments he has received from all of you and especially appreciates the time he has spent with some of you in person.

we have been blessed with a son who has been given the ability to play a sport that most of us only wish we could play. these past 4 years have so exceeded our expectations that i can not even begin to try to explain it.

at this time i would like to extend a thank you to pawesleyfan, teamski, etc. for your support of a great program even when you have no tie to it. secondly, i would like to thank the guys of stone station, you guys rock and i cant wait to see you again either at wesley or the stagg bowl. we are hooked on this d3 thing as most of you are. next, my kudos go out to the guys at d3, without you this would have been extremely boring. keith, i was so glad to meet you last year, your professionalism is only exceeded by your writing. conrad and gordan, your kind words of support this year have been appreciated.

finally, i would like to thank my son, without whom this would have never been possible. jason, you have handled yourself with the greatest of professionalism in the toughest of times. some would have walked away, you decided to do what was right and do what you could for the team. i, as a father could not be any more proud of the way you have turned out as a young man, thanks for all the memories these past 4 years and god bless you. thanks to everyone whom i have spoken to on this site and i look forward to the continued meeting of as many of you as i can.

Wesleydad:

One thing you must remember...your son is a product of what you , your wife, and family did for him. I often tell the Centennial fathers that the fact that rain, snow or not feeling well does not keep parents away from the games the sons, and/or daughters, are playing in. Yes it feel good to watch and have an athlete that does play sports. You took time for the practices that got him to that point. A lot of people do not understand the dedication of the parent.

So therefore I tip my cap to you for getting your son, to and thru another rememberence of parenting.

good job!!!

Well stated Wesleydad. It's been nice knowing you as well. We'll see you at the game!

getting ready to head to dover. looks like the weather is not cooperating so it will be a wet one, thank goodness for turf. hope to see as many of you there as can make it. stop by, we will still be tailgating, thank goodness for a tent.

Heading for Dover in 20 mins...Sitting in the rain and watching a game at Wesley isn't so bad ,Unless you have an easterly wind

Got the rain gear ready

Teamski · November 15, 2008, 05:20:35 PM

Thankfully, the rain held off and we had a sunny game. Wesley led Gallaudet 41-0 at halftime and went on to win with reserves in the second half 55-7. Gallaudet was applauded by Wesley fans for their touchdown in the 4th quarter. I thought that was pretty neat. Hats off to the Gallaudet players. They definately played with spirit.

So, now it's off to the playoffs for Wesley......

ps....Old Wesley away jerseys were being sold, and I was lucky to nab Bryan Robinson's #92. I was giggling like a little school girl on the way home... Now to repair all of those rips!

The great thing about that is that you know it's authentic!

Another fantastic regular season for the Gulls........the Regents Cup stays in Salisbury AGAIN! 5 years in a row and counting. Great job guys! ECAC home game should be a lock....damn that loss to DV hurts....this team would have been a tough out in the playoffs. Wesley should rep the conference well though.
Go Gulls!
