RE: (S40) PT #4 - The Glory Days - moonlight - 03-19-2023
Battle Angel Alita hasn't been doing this very long. Her first actual football game occurred in the DSFL. That game was the week 1 matchup between the Birddogs and the Luchadores. Alita had a really bad performance in her first career game. She had 13 yards on 7 carries. Not exactly a high point for her football career. She has ended up being a fairly average to bad football player. She was a novelty pick for the Birddogs since she had so little football experience. She was known for her motorball days. It requires speed and toughness just like football but it differs in that motorball is an individual sport while football is the ultimate team sport. At the running back position, this is especially apparent. Alita is reliant on the blockers in front of her to open up rush lanes and she also needs to capitalize on those lanes when they open up.

While reflecting on Dante King's illustrious career as a football player, one would be remiss to only look back at his games as a professional and miss out on the legendary performances he has to his name from his time in the amateur ranks. While there are a number of great games to highlight throughout his storied high school and college career, the absolute apex has to be his showing in the 2042 Pac-12 championship game where he led the #5 Stanford Cardinal up against the #2 USC Trojans in a game that ultimately sent the Cardinal to the College Football Playoffs. Facing a prolific Trojan defense that had allowed just two 100-yard rushers on the season, King put his dual-threat dominance on display and was virtually untouchable en route to a season high 278 yards and 3 touchdowns on the ground on 28 carries, including two scoring runs of fifty-plus yards, as well as 57 yards and a score through the air on four catches, leading Stanford to a 45-31 victory.

Written option: Scrolling through your photos, you start reminiscing of the "glory days". For this PT, describe the game that defined your player's pre-ISFL career. Whether it be a great game in high school that got your player recruited, or the time you stepped out on the field in college and led your team to an unbelievable victory, describe what solidified your player being a star that they are!

The game that defined Diego López Alonso’s pre-ISFL career was a friendly scrimmage between the University of Arizona and a local high school. DLA’s pre-ISFL career is actually quite surprisingly unrelated to football, since it’s not common in his country and he hadn’t been exposed to it until a later age. Thus, his first ever opportunity to play it came in this exact match. He’d been sent to the University of Arizona as part of a student exchange program due to his good grades in the Universidad Nacional de San Marcos and when given the opportunity to partake in an American football game for the first time he didn’t pass up the opportunity. He asked to play at receiver since he thought that would be the position most suited to his talents. Obviously it wasn’t a meaningful game by any measure as it didn’t count towards anything. But he absolutely killed it a WR. No stats were kept, but he remembers at least 5 TDs and 250+ yards, and he was soon contacted by a scout present at the game. That’s how he started.
