Here are the Wolfpack Cheerleaders.

Here are me and Gord before the game began.  We sat on the west side of the stadium (we usually sit on the east side).

God Save the Queen and O Canada were sung before the game.

 And the game began ...

It seemed like most people sat on the west side of the stadium this week.

The Wolfpack cheering section was loud and enthusiastic, as usual.

At the end of the first half, the Wolfpack were winning 40 - 6.  Yay!

Jefferson, the Wolfpack's new mascot, entertained during the intermission.

And then the second half began ...

The Wolfpack won 64 - 12.  Yippee!

The players hugged it out after the game.

Wolfpack head coach Paul Rowley was interviewed after the game.

The players are great with their fans, hanging out after the game, taking pictures and signing teeshirts, etc.

The beer garden is a popular spot after the game
