NORTH ROBINSON - It wasn't perfect by any means, but the new look Colonel Crawford Eagles opened the season with a win.
"We've had eight months prepare, and we have a young team," acting head coach Chris Solis said. "Kids are gonna make mistakes, but we were very proud of their effort tonight."
For the second consecutive year the Eagles won big over Fairbanks. And, just as he did a year prior, Parker Weithman put on a show against the Panthers scoring a trio of touchdowns — 11-yard reception, 35-yard jet sweep, 99-yard kickoff return.
WEEK 1 PICKS! NJ Sports Reporters' knowledge tested right out of the gate
"Parker is just a kid who is fun, but he's competitive," Solis said. "Kids love him, coaches love him, the community loves him ... kids feed off his energy and he's a great leader."
