What a time to be a Bayside sports fan!
Just this week alone the volleyball team will face McGill and travel to Decatur to play in the Danville Tournament. The football team will travel across the bay to face Mobile Christian. Cross country will participate in the Daphne Invitational and the swim team will face off with Murphy and Alma Bryant @ Bishop State in the second meet of the season.
If you get a chance to catch your breath middle school football, volleyball and cross country are also all competing this week.
Volleyball starts off the week facing 6A McGill at home on Tuesday, September 22 at 5:00. Show up and support the volleyball team as they take on the mighty Yellow Jackets. I have heard the students are organizing a "blue out" so wear blue and make some noise as the Admirals shoot for the upset. The Admirals are the #1 ranked team in 3A in the state and McGill is ranked #5 in the state in 6A. This should be a great match up and our girls need all your support in their bid to swat the Yellow Jackets!
What a wild two weeks for the football team. After coming thisclose to pulling off the biggest upset in school history it might have been easy for Bayside to be a little flat vs. Straughn last Friday night. The Admirals came out and methodically took apart Straughn 27-0! Coach Lazenby has the boys ready and the coaches are doing a terrific job preparing the team. I hope everyone got a chance to attend the games the last two weeks. The atmosphere is amazing. The crowds have been tremendous. Loud and supportive! If you were in attendance you've witnessed two of the best games this football program has EVER played. Bayside had a 1st and goal at the 9 yard line with less than a minute to play vs. #1 ranked T.R. Miller. T.R. Miller is one of the most tradition rich football programs in the state and our boys gave them all they could handle before falling just a little short 28-24. It was amazing to see the effort the Admirals showed in the loss. Bayside dressed 30 players for the game and T.R. Miller dressed 80!!!!!!!!
This week the Admirals will play Mobile Christian. If you can drive over to west Mobile on Friday night and support the Admirals.
Middle school volleyball will travel to Fairhope on Thursday to take on the Pirates. Middle school football will play the appetizer to the Friday night main course as they travel to Mobile Christian on Thursday at 6:00. The middle school match up is a battle of undefeated teams as both the Admirals (2-0) and the Leopards (3-0) have yet to lose a game this season!
Hope everyone has a great week get out and support ALL the Admiral athletes!
