A Win-Win

Before writing about these two young HS sophomores from Oklahoma who have spent a couple days in a Leadership Training session here at Concordia University, let me tell of Nebraska's first Football win in the "Scott Frost era".
It came today with a 53-28 win over Minnesota. It would appear from the final score that there was no question who would win. Especially if you heard that Nebraska scored our fist TD on the first possession with less than 2 minutes off the clock. Though the Gophers scored just before the end of the 1st half, the Huskers led 28-8. With them scoring a couple more TD's in the 3rd quarter making the score 28-22, they were driving in the red zone when Nebraska happened to pick off a pass that glanced off a helmet to stop the drive.  It appeared for a moment that "Here we go Again" but thank goodness, we didn't, and got that W. 
The group of Oklahoma students were led by a teacher who had come up from that state to get her Teacher credentials from Concordia some years ago. As  part of their training, she arraigned for small groups to spend an hour or so with us Brookdale residents. We had a great visit with these two young men. I like to think that we might have said something to help them have successful careers and lives. They are Good Boys.
