JUNE 8, 2018, KEIZERTIMES, PAGE B3 Toughness focus of spring camp By DEREK WILEY Of the Keizertimes Wearing new “TNT” T- shirts, McNary was focused on playing with tempo and toughness during its spring football camp. From running plays to drills, everything the Celtics did was fast. “These kids are excited to play football,” McNary head coach Jeff Auvinen said. “It’s the end of the year so some- times you don’t know what you’re going to get. But they want to get better. They want to have fun. They want to pull for each other. I’m pretty ex- cited about their attitudes.” Below the “N” in “TNT’ was the McNary “M,” which Auvinen said stood for “No Mercy.” “We had a habit of play- ing down to our opponents at times and up to our op- ponents,” Auvinen said. “We want to play to our ultimate potential all the time. We just want to take care of ourselves and how good we can be and be as tough as we can and go as hard as we can all of the time.” McNary’s three-week spring camp began on May 22 and fi nished June 7. The Celtics added helmets during the second week and shoulder pads in week three. The Celtics will lift weights and participate in 7-on-7 pass- ing leagues in Woodburn and Portland throughout June and July, hosting an event on July 10. Summer camp is Aug. 6-10 and practice begins Aug. 13. Blue Day is Aug. 18 McNary opens the regular season at home on Aug. 31 against North Medford.

Both losses came to the 4-H Timber Juniors. “We had a lot of miss- ing players,” Mosqueda said. “We’ll see (what happens) if we meet in the playoffs again.” CCMS will play in Keizer Soccer Club’s six-team play- off on Saturday, June 9 at 1:15 p.m. at Whiteaker Middle School with the winners ad- vancing to the championship on Sunday. Although it’s the fi rst sea- son all of the Claggett kids have played together on one team, the boys have built chemistry together in other sports. “A lot of these kids have played together in football or track,” Mosqueda said. “They all know each other. They all go to Claggett and the eighth graders are really good lead- ers on the team so they help with the sixth graders com- ing up.”
