As was his style, he did not have much to say in his acceptance speech, but little did we know then that Daryn would lead us back to Giants Stadium and the 1996 finals.</P> <P>We were picked pre-season as the #1 team in the area, we won our first game 35-8 and then we lost our second game 20-6 at home.&nbsp; We were winning 6-0 at the half and then we were outplayed 20-0 inthe second half.&nbsp; I could tell that the players were a little shook up coming off the&nbsp;field and I spoke to Coach Martin about how we were going to address the team.&nbsp;

We were 7-1 and the three other teams were 8-0; we would have to go on the road for the first time in three years.&nbsp; However, the players knew that would be the case from the second week on and they were excited about the opportunity of being back in the playoffs.</P> <P>We played the number one seeded team at their field.&nbsp; They were undefeated and to make matters worse they were coached by a close friend of mine who had come over fr
