Now that Grant has beaten the number 2 team in the country Poly of Long Beach 25-20 maybe now teams will come up to Sacramento and play.

I have lived in Southern Cali and love it but Grant is one area of Sacramento that always has had athletes that could compete with Southern Cali they just needed to know they can do it.

I hope this forever changes the attitude in Sacramento in more than sports that you can take the lead instead of trying to live up to what other areas do!

Now for De La Salle how about really scheduling Grant now? Can't duck us with that  wanting half of your home gate craziness.

Now De La Salle can't go around just saying your the best in Northern Cali, you have to prove it!

The other great thing is that two public schools played for the championship that don't recruit city and region wide.

Once again CONGRATULATIONS 2008 GRANT PACERS FOOTBALL TEAM YOU ARE THE CALIFORNIA STATE CHAMPIONS!!

Grant pacers are California state champions!!!

GET SOME DPH NORTH SAC!!!

Way to represent for Grant alums!!!

First Congratulations to the 2008 Grant Pacers Football Team for being 13-0 and being selected as the Northern California representative for the California State Bowl in Division I.

Despite being a Division III attendance school Grant has always played with the big boys and cannot get anyone from Northern California to schedule non-league games against them any more and have to schedule out of State competition!

This year they beat the State Champions of Utah & Idaho!

Grant keeps trying to schedule perennial National Powerhouse De La Salle for a home game in the Bay area one year and the next year in Sacramento but I hear De La Salle wants to get their full gate at their stadium and half the gate when they play Grant's stadium.

Either to the current 2008 Grant Pacers football team from a Grant high alum no other than me Snakeice play that smash mouth in your face speed & power Grant football style and you will be just fine in the state bowl game against Poly Long Beach!

Plus my younger brother another Pacer alum coached a lot of these kids in youth football.

I can hear the chant from the stands now with two fingers in the air forming a "V" for victory: PACERS!...PACERS!......PACERS!......PACERS!......PACERS!......PACERS!.....
PACERS!......PACERS!......PACERS!......PACERS!......PACERS!......PACERS!..
