Seahawks Triumph in Super Bowl LX

The Seattle Seahawks claimed their second Super Bowl victory in franchise history by decisively beating the New England Patriots, 29-13.

Here are my Top 5 Takeaways from the Super Bowl:

Like I said in my preview, the Seahawks’ defense is amazing and they showed this by being the real star of the show on Super Bowl Sunday. Seattle’s D completely shut down the Patriots offense, only giving up 46 yards in the first half and totally dominating for three quarters.
Even though he didn’t score any touchdowns, Seattle’s Kenneth Walker, III went full beast mode with 135 yards rushing and taking home MVP honors. In doing so, he was the first running back to earn the MVP since 1998.
The Seattle pass rush was relentless. The D-Line lived in the backfield all night and defensive end Uchenna Nwosu even grabbed a pick-six. The constant pressure made life miserable for Drake Maye.
Sam Darnold did exactly what was needed: In his first season with Seattle, Darnold stayed calm, protected the ball, tossed a TD, and let play-action do the heavy lifting. No hero ball required.
Special teams quietly stole the show: Kicker Jason Myers was automatic, drilling five field goals — a Super Bowl record — and keeping the scoreboard moving when the offense stalled. I guess you can’t give the kicker the MVP, but he certainly made his case.

Ryan Bobb, Staff Writer

Everyone has their ambitions and aspirations but are they willing to do the work for it? For Paint Branch ninth-grader Ryan Bobb, hard work is no obstacle as he dedicates himself to work hard towards his goal. One of the big goals for Ryan is making the basketball team at PB as basketball is a sport that he has treasured deeply since starting at the age of 5 years old. In fact, for Ryan, basketball is one of his motivations for waking up in the morning. In addition to basketball, Ryan is inspired by his family, and plans to get good grades and achieve his goals. One of those goals is building healthy relationships throughout his freshman year. While Ryan is a positive person, he is frustrated in the struggle that many young basketball players face: being taller. In fact, Ryan wishes to be at least 6’2, rather than his 5’8, to suit his future basketball needs. While his height is not something he can control, what he can control is the work he puts in, which is why he proceeds to work on his craft “7 days a week.” When it comes to his future Ryan’s aspiration is to make the NBA and play alongside the best of the best. If he were to achieve this well-respected goal, he wishes to play for his hometown team, the Washington Wizards where his long time idol John Wall played. Speaking of John Wall, for most people, meeting their idol is just a dream, a thing they fantasize about but never achieve. However, that is not the case for Ryan who entered and won a contest to be a Monumental Sports Wizards junior reporter, which he entered by creating a video with his father. Winning this contest led to Ryan having a chance to meet his idol, John Wall. In fact, he not only met him, he had the chance to interview him. In fact, this experience is in part why he took journalism. It helped shape Ryan into a person who sees it as maybe something he can do in the future.
