High School, College and Pro Football have different starts to their seasons. While the pros are still in pre-season play, college is one week into their season and most high schools have completed three weeks. So, where are we in raising money to eradicate polio? As of today, 22 Rotarians have pledged $567.50 based on their team's success! President Erik's Oregon Ducks scored an impressive 59 points!!
Fun stat from Oregon's opener:
In their season debut against Montana State, Oregon fielded 18 new starters - including a lineup of transfer players who had a combined 190 career starts at their previous schools. Talk about experience hitting the ground running!
We'll have a full breakdown next week once the pro teams enter the competition. Thanks everyone for sharing your team spirit to benefit Polio Plus!
