Every year it seams so bleak

Not from me, but, we seem weak

Despite the everlasting tweak

We barely make a bowl

Then the season ends, we find

A small new hope, the really good kind

And all our pessimism does unwind

A diamond from the coal

But this year’s different, so we say

These from where the palm trees sway

I truly hope they like it and stay

Sad, but that’s our goal

Sagapolutele looked good right up until the end when he was intercepted to end the last minute comeback threat.

Wait, somebody thinks 11.66 in the 100m and 5’6” in the high jump are good numbers? For a high school girl, yes….

I had similar thoughts lol. 11.6 is fast but not crazy fast; you'll place at some high school meets. 5'6" is enough to be a high jumper but not to turn heads -- I did better than that and certainly didn't get to Cal for my athletics lmao

It’s been a whole lot of years since I tackled rigorous math in my Cal linear algebra class, and I’ve definitely forgotten a lot. But hey, I’m pretty sure count 4. 🤔

Young just dropped a pick-six, but the read was top-notch.
