How about those Hounds!

The Greyhounds finished the 2008 football season on the road at Dollarway on Friday. What a game! It came down to an overtime battle with Dollarway on top by only one point. Knowing it was the last night the seniors would wear a Greyhound jersey was sad. That final minute was heartbreaking. You can see the action shots here.

I have enjoyed this football season so much, and have grown so fond of these young men. I am terribly proud of what they accomplished this year. The scoreboard is not the only indication of a winner. You guys should hold your heads high because you have lots to be proud of. I know Newport is proud of you! You will always be a Greyhound at heart, so take what you've learned here and go out into the world! - Cheryl
