Before and after!


Andrew in the middle of the Orange Line... on defense, quarterback is ready for snap... notice size of front three players, Andrew is down and ready too....

Grandma and I headed to OKC and then to Edmond last night to watch Andrew and the (Stillwater) Oklahoma Cowboys play football in the Edmond Football League.

Short version here... They WON, again... 19-6!

And guess what... with plays like this... is it any wonder? Andrew is in stance in middle of defense line and in the next photo he has the quarterback on his back, after blowing by not one, not two... but three of the defense's biggest players...

and this was the first series of plays!!! With young men playing like this, this team will be unbeatable!

Needless to say, his level of playing improved with each down and by the end of the game, their opponents were tripping clipping and doing about everything to stop him, and could not do it. I watched as this gentle giant ... came alive, and as the punches were thrown, his elbow found it's way to a player's chin who had actually punched him in the play before, and he fell accidentally on the biggest player holding him to the ground by accident...

In the end ... Andrew Blankinship was the star and my photos prove it, not my words!

PS.. Andrew, this is why you don't want the ball.... they will all try to do what you did so great last night... You were the big monster in the barn... and played great!

This is how it's done!


and he blew by their big 3 and booooooom! have a dirt sandwich Mr. QB!
Uncle Jake will be proud to see this photo.. having gone to the OU and Dallas Cowboys football camps... when he played with the Perkins-Tryon Demons... He could do this too.. 

Andrew, you ruled. It takes a team to win, and in a very short amount of time, the Oklahoma Cowboys have become just that. I saw them pull off plays one might expect from high school boys - with ease, passing and running.
Last night, in Edmond,  it was Blankinship on Defense and Gundy on Offense that "led" their team to victory!
