🦅 A HUGE thank you to the team at the Chick-fil-A Thunderbird location for coming through for our Eagles this morning! ❤️🐔

When we found ourselves in a breakfast bind, their team stepped up with incredible customer service, understanding, and urgency to help make sure our players were fed at the end of practice this morning. They truly went above and beyond, and their kindness and support did not go unnoticed.

Eagles — be sure to show them some love and support! The Thunderbird Chick-fil-A team is truly heads above the rest.

Thank you for supporting our players and our program!

🏈 Player Spotlight: CJ 🏈

A huge congratulations to CJ, a senior offensive lineman, on earning 1st Team All-Region honors! 🔥

A dominant force at left tackle, CJ anchored the line that powered the offense to 2,277 rushing yards this season — with four separate 100+ yard rushers. His strength, technique, and leadership have been vital to the team’s success.

As team captain, CJ has led both on and off the field, and his presence is felt by everyone around him. He was also named Ironwood’s Ironman of the Year for his excellence across multiple sports, including spirit line and track & field. 🏆

With seven college offers already on the table, we can’t wait for his announcement — and to watch him dominate at the next level. 💪

💬 His advice to underclassmen: “Play the game with no regrets.”

🏈 Player Spotlight: Amir 🏈

Congratulations to Amir, a junior offensive lineman, on earning Honorable Mention All-Region! 💪

This season, Amir looked forward to starting on varsity to help protect the line as a right guard. He was also voted as a team captain to help lead the team this year. Along with football, he’s a proud member of the Ironwood track & field team.

Amir has big goals — he’s interested in becoming an electrician or a chef. But that will have to wait until he dominates his senior yr.⚡🍳

🎹 Fun fact: Amir once performed in a piano recital his freshman year!

Way to go, Amir — your hard work shines on and off the field! 👏

🏈 Player Spotlight: Jaxson 🏈

Huge congrats to Jaxson, a junior offensive lineman, on earning 2nd Team All-Region honors!💪

As the starting left guard for the last two years, Jaxson has been a powerhouse up front — protecting the line with his strength, smart play reads, and versatility. His hard work and consistency have been key to the Eagles’ success allowing for 2277 rushing yards with 4 separate 100+ rushers.

Off the field, Jaxson continues to impress — not only is he a dedicated member of the track & field team, but he’s also maintained an outstanding 4.0 GPA throughout high school. 📚 His drive for excellence shows both in the classroom and on the field. When he’s not training or competing, you can find him off-road racing, chasing adrenaline and adventure in his free time. 🏁

We’re looking forward to watching him lead the offensive line his senior year and continue to be a dominant force for Ironwood Football! 🦅
