H.S.P.D.

This is a program that all schools in the borrow participate in, H.S.P.D. stands for high school player development. The NFL is what gave us this activity which is kind of like camp. Our school Lafayette has actually improved and we know this because we do 7 on 7 at the end of the day and the patriots has been catching interceptions on defense and had completions for more than 20 yards and this is 5 division teams that we are playing with and against. What they really do is they mix the teams up so its different teams on a team, black team or white team. Other teams when they seened the patriots they said "they actually came this year" and we didn't have many people but our performance was incredible. The last day of this camp is Friday and we play as a team against the other teams so that's going to really determine how good we have gotten. Well at the line men drills they have full contact and I thought that our line  men we're going to get beat down but they did incredible even our J.V. line men did great. Well unfortunately I wasn't able to come that Friday but I heard that our team was giving other teams like Midwood and New Utrecht the work patriot style as in hitting. Well that's it on H.S.P.D. see ya.

AFTER A WONDERFUL SEASON.

After our great season we head off to the weight room to get those muscles for next season. Our coaches are happy for the hard work we put in as players throughout the season and it all payed off also, the techniques the coach has taught us and the smarts we have thanks to them. One thing for sure the coach says "during the season I will not be smiling because I know we should make it to at least the playoffs and you still might not even see me smirk if we make it that far". As you can see our coach believes in us and so do we towards him which is why we are working hard at the weight room. The one thing that might hurt the us is losing seyquan grant who was our leader. Now that we have set the season in the right tune so far. we have many players at the weight room, we have some bodies for the may-ball also. This week 5/24/10-5/28/10 we will be at Grady high school for something called H.S.P.D. I believe it stands for high school players development. That's where all schools from the same borrow participate and practice different skills with each other. Well lets get back on topic, about the weight room we've been working hard many of us look like we got stronger and others you can actually see results on their body. Those that have been their consistently are the ones with the best results and that's just about half the team.

THE ENDING OF SEASON 2009

The Lafayette patriots has proven great power. We had not a great season but had a great big step forward from the losing streak. We left the 2009 season with a record of 3-7, say good bye to that losing streak, well at least for now. While the patriots has shown everyone that we can win and want to continue that. Even though everybody from our schools has put us down we still had a great out break. We were just as surprised as the school was, it was an emotional day for us. We continued our intensity throughout the rest of the season, we didn't win ever game after our first win but, the way we won those 3 games its incredible, to see a team that wasn't winning end up getting 2 shut outs and 1 of those shut outs was a blow out at the same time how crazy, the score was 38-0. The other shut out was by a touchdown, all we had to do was lock the team down defensively and that's exactly what we did, the score was 6-0. The first game we won was by a field goal, who would of known the Lafayette football team would ever win by a field goal that's advance skills, by the way you can watch that game on youtube.com the videos name is varsity Lafayette @ Stuyvesant or at least something like that, the score was 7-9. So as I said the ways we won were impressing so that's what makes teams scared of us for next season and the same players that played the season of 2009, they will be on the team still. From what I heard theirs teams that don't want to play the patriots cause we have heart and make the game difficult also, we hit hard. Thats just a shout out to those that thinks we're soft.
