Home Game
Talk
about Friday night lights!
The field looked fantastic. The sky was filled with surprise.
The stands were full and spirits were high.
Cheers abounded and both teams played hard.
It was a beautiful evening.
Spotter, Mr. Gallagher, looks up into the pale evening sky, maintaining radio contact with the sky diver prior to jump, while holding the locator flag.
Pete Swan soars out of the sky to the strains of Lee Greenwood's 'I'm Proud To Be an American.' The crowd went wild. It was awesome!
The parachute billows as sky diver Pete Swan hits his target while Mustang cheer leaders gather up the flag that Swan delivered just prior to kick off.
All's well that ends well. Oakdale High School cheer leaders whoop it up as old glory is displayed to the capacity crowd at Oakdale's first home game.
Mike Bacigalupi, center, and John Shatswell greet Pete Swan on the sidelines after Swan completed a daring pinpoint landing in center field.
Trevor Machado-Ching, honorary captain of the Oakdale Mustang varsity for the home game, looks on as his team mates open up in the first quarter.
Mustang cheer leaders beautifully lit up the stadium with their enthusiasm and talent, even if the score did not turn out quite the way we had hoped.
