Morse, Mission Bay, Hoover, Madison, UC, and Chula Vista high School’s were some of the teams invited to compete in an all day 7-on-7 All The Smoke football tournament last Saturday on Hoover High School’s turf.
Quarterbacks and clever route runners were able to sharpen their skills and perfect their timing while thrilling onlookers with their gifts of toss and grab.
“We bring the kids out here to compete in these tournaments to keep them busy and get them in playing shape and have some fun,” Morse Coach Brian Wilson shared.
“A lot of people only associate me with basketball but at Morse we are supportive of all our team sports: track, lacrosse, volleyball, baseball. You name a sport and we support it at Morse and this 7-on-7 is no exception,” Wilson continued.
“That’s right,” said Morse’s head football coach Tracy McNair. “We look out for each other, that’s how we do.”
Morse players and staff had their share of shining moments. However. when the smoke finally cleared from the 7-on-7 All The Smoke Tournament at 4474 El Cajon Blvd’s Herbert Hoover High School, Mission Bay’s much too great Buccaneers defeated University City for all the SMOKE!.
