La Mirada~The Beatitudes of Our Lord School varsity football team kicked off the season with a 40-0 win over St. Pius X on Saturday, September 24 at St. Paul High School.
This victory comes off the heels of the Bobcat's championship success at two pre-season tournaments; the 1st Annual St. John Bosco Flag Football Tournament and the 7th Annual St. Paul Swordsmen Elite Boys "A" Football Tournament. Coach Bernie Edwards states, "The kids worked hard this summer and have shown great team work so far. We still have a long way to go this season, but if the team continues to stay focused we should continue to win games."
Cheering on the football team was the Beatitudes Bobcat Cheer Team. The cheer team is coached by Rachel Gutierrez and competes in three competitions annually. The team currently holds the 1st place Small Show Cheer A Division title in the 2011 CYO Cheer, Song and Dance Competition
"The Beatitudes sports program has a long history of success not only in football, but in many other of our boys and girls sports." says Mary Forrest, Athletic Director. "We look forward to more success this year from all our young Beatitudes athletes."
