Editor's note: Twinsburg quarterback Aaron Macer is taking readers inside his team's huddle by writing a blog for cleveland.com throughout the football season.
It was great to get our first Northeast Ohio Conference win this past week over Lakewood High, 56-7. The regular season is more than halfway done and you can see all the hard work our team has put in. I'm not talking about the practices everyone goes through. I'm talking about the stuff that people don't see, such as the commitment to the weight room and the off-season conditioning. We've bonded and become a better team. Because we graduated so many starters from last season not many people gave us a chance this year. We graduated "that class" -- the one that many folks in town felt would be the most successful in school history. Last year 19 of our 22 starters were seniors. We've been asked "How are you going to win this year graduating so many seniors?" We've been told things like, "You'll be lucky to be .500 this year." But despite all the doubters we are pushing to do something "that class" couldn't: BE PERFECT. The classes before us were very good and I'm honored to have played with them. But, now it's our turn and we are taking advantage of every opportunity we get. This week we are at Cuyahoga Falls and focused on getting another win in conference play. They are a team that can beat us if we let them so we have to come out and give them everything we've got.
