IN 2003 IT WAS A TOUGH YEAR GOING 4-6 BUT MAKING THE 4TH ROUND OF THE PLAYOFFS AND PLAYING WITHOUT A STARTING QB.IN 2004, WE WERE HOT AND COLD BUT FINISHED THE LEAGUE STRONG WITH A DIVISION CHAMPIONSHIP AND MADE THE CITY PLAYOFFS WITH A RECORD OF 8-2. IN 2006, WE HAD A GREAT YEAR GOING 8-2 (WHILE BEING CHEATED OF 2 WINS BY THE REFS) AND WINNING THE DIVISION. WE FINSIHED 2ND IN THE PLAYOFFS AND 4TH IN THE CITY TOURNEY. iN 2007 WE FINSIHED WITH A 9 -1 RECORD AND AN ABRUPT EXIT IN THE PLAYOFFS. 2008 WE TOOK A SHORT BREAK.

Meet The Players from South Park
KEEP THE TRADITION ALIVE!
SINCE OUR INCEPTION IN 1997 THIS TEAM HAS UNDERGONE A LOT OF CHANGES. THE NAME STARTED OUT AS JUST THE COWBOYS. THAT FIRST YEAR WAS A LEARNING PROCESS OF HOW TO PLAY FLAG FOOTBALL AS A TEAM. THE RECORD THAT YEAR WAS 2-8, AND NOT TOO GOOD. THE NEXT YEAR WE ADDED A LOT OF KEY PLAYERS AND WON OUR DIVISION UNDER THE NAME ADVANCED DIGITAL SOLUTIONS. WE FINISHED WITH A 9-1 RECORD. THE YEAR AFTER, A.D.S. SHARED SPONSORSHIP WITH THE SPORTS PUB AND WON THE TITLE AGAIN GOING 10-0 IN DIVISION THREE. SINCE THEN WE HAVE BEEN SEVERAL OTHER NAMES AND HAD SEVERAL SPONSORS. MOST PEOPLE KNOW US AS THE HORNS, THAT BEING OUR NAME THE LAST COUPLE OF SEASONS. FOR THE FUTURE OF THIS TEAM WE HAVE GONE BACK TO OUR ROOTS FROM SOFTBALL. WE WILL FOR NOW AND THE FUTURE BE KNOWN AS MERCHANT FLAG FOOTBALL.
I PERSONALLY WANT TO THANK SOME OF THE PLAYERS OVER THE YEARS WHO HAVE PLAYED AND HELPED BRING A WINNING TRADITION TO THIS TEAM. FROM THE EARLY YEARS THERE WAS JAMES AIKEN, TIM MCKNIGHT, JASON JAGNEAU, CHARLIE PRUITT, ERIC LEE, AND THE TWINS. MORE RECENTLY WE HAVE HAD SHAWN POUDRIER, DANIEL POUDRIER, MATT MARSIGLIA, RANDELL LILES, SHAWN SAUNDERS, RONALD NORWOOD, AND CHRISTIAN HICKS. BUT THE SPECIAL THANKS TO THE TWO CONSTANT PLAYERS OVER THE YEARS, EVEN SINCE THE BEGINNING, RODNEY MEDLIN AND DANNY EVANS.
tHANKS AGAIN TO ALL THE GUYS WHO HAVED HELPED OVER THE YEARS. SEE IN 2004!
