St Thomas Aquinas High School Football Team

By Jana Serrano


Football is undoubtedly the most popular sport in the United States. It is by far the most watched event in the entire nation, bringing together multitudes of people from all walks of life. This creates a friendly, testosterone driven atmosphere filled with shouts and cheers for their bets to win.

This game requires extensive training to maximize chances of winning and minimize the dangerous consequences of errors in this full contact sport. The number of students who participate have grown quite fast and they all have the passion and competitive edge to become champions. The Raiders, which is the St Thomas Aquinas High School football team, have won almost a hundred trophies.

The Raiders are considered the best football players in the high school level, and for valid reasons. They have also produced such student athletes as Chris Evert, Michael Irvin, and Sanya Richards Ross. Not only have they won tons of trophies, they have maintained an enviable culture of respect and professionalism.

The Raiders, or the St Thomas Aquinas Team, are no new bloomers. They have claimed victory in numerous states and have proven their longevity in this sport. One good reason for this good chemistry among the players is that they show sincere love of the game and interacting with teammates.

It is a bad idea according to the coach to either waste a day of practice or for the kids to miss school. But this would not make much of a difference in the game. They do not want to create excuses. They would rather manage.

St Thomas coach Rocco Casullo himself has verbalized how proud he is of the guys on the offense, defense, and special teams. He mentioned that they put it all together after their previous loss. This shows resilience which makes them very admirable and popular.

Many opponents are anxious to play against The Raiders. They have the dominating performance in every game which gives them a higher chance of yet grabbing another trophy. Their players are really fearless, smart, and surprisingly tough for high school students. They are faster and more experienced. Among their well known players are Michael Irvin, Leonard Hankerson, and Major Wright.

Opponents can either attack them intelligently and powerfully, or end up reduced to a heap. Quite frankly, some even achieve both. It is still a good thing though because at least the opponent did not lose without a good fight.

The Raiders took on the challenge of football as high school kids. That alone is a great inspiration for people to have more confidence in themselves and at least have a shot of pursuing their passion, may it be sport or another endeavor. It may be just a game to some, but to others it is a life changing and enlightening path to discover your capabilities and test your limits. This true test of character and resilience among the youth has been definitely proven by the St Thomas Aquinas Football Team.
