How did the banquet go?

Can anyone who was at the banquet fill us in on what happened?

The banquet went off well--it started right on time despite the weather. The seniors were honored and Coach Benson expressed his appreciation many times for this class being the original recruits for Georgetown's entry into the PL. The captains were announced (see other post) and several individual awards were presented. Coach Benson is very good in front of a crowd and I think it is for two reasons: 1) He's sincere; 2) He cares...a lot.

One moment in particular stood out for me. When Drew Crawford presented the team's gift to OC, Coach Uzelac, he was effusive in his praise. He said that in his one year with Coach "U", he learned more than he had in his three previous years. I had heard this young man had class, and now I understand.

One final comment. I sensed that the staff is encouraged about their recruiting results thus far. No particular details came my way, but the highlight film was clearly produced to serve as a recruiting piece as well as a retrospective for the 2004 team.

Any way I can get my hands on that highlight film?

Try putting a call into the football office, they're usually pretty helpful with things like that.
