The first game of the season Coach Tinkler's Gold Team welcomed the Bearcats of Battle Creek Central (BCC) to Hastings. Battle Creek Central is new to our league this year and the team found out that BCC is definately a team to look out for in the future. Coach Tinkler and his coaching staff did a great job of changing up the plays to keep our opponent guessing what was coming each play and the players played well for the season opener. Great job to all of the players for their 34 - 24 victory this week.
