Faith Christian Eagles Football
2010
Faith vs. Ridgeview ::: September 3, 2010 The 2010 Faith Christian Football Team got off to a fast start on Friday night in their season opener against Ridgeview Academy. Wide Receiver, Evan Marshall took the first offensive play of the season 75 yards for a touchdown off of a perfectly placed pass from quarterback Alex Buchmann. On the first defensive series for the Eagles, Evan intercepted a pass and the team struck quickly again with a 27 yards touchdown pass from Buchmann to Wide Receiver Nolan Beasley. Two offensive plays, two touchdowns and a great start to the season. Offensive highlights include Alex Buchmann setting a school record for passing yards in a game with 263 yards, finishing with 9 completions off of 14 attempts and 3 TD passes. Evan Marshall set a school record with 178 yards receiving on 6 receptions. Oran Tool rushed for 109 yards off of 6 attempts including an exciting 53 yard touchdown run. The defense was equally exceptional recording a shutout in the season opener. Marcus Banister led the team with 12 tackles including a sack. David Kim recorded 6 tackles with 3 of them being tackles for loss. Derek McCartney got off to a good start with 6 tackles and 2 sacks. Evan Marshall had 7 tackles and 1 interception. The game ended with a final score of 41-0. Following the game the Faith players prayed with the Ridgeview Academy Rams on the field and prayed for their season, health throughout the year, and for an injured player. Our hope is that the visitors saw a difference in our team and that would draw them closer to knowing Christ. This week kicks-off the annual Turn-Over Hunger food drive lead by the football team. Each student at Faith is challenged to bring in a canned good for each turn-over forced in the previous weekends game. The donated food is then taken to local food banks to help those in need in our community. Last year faith students donated over a ton of food to the community.
