LINCOLN, Neb. — The gates opened early as cleats hit the turf and teams from across the US stepped onto the hallowed grounds of Memorial Stadium for the annual Battle at the Boneyard 7-on-7 football tournament.
For many young athletes, it was a unique opportunity to compete where legends have played and chase dreams of collegiate football glory.
“This is a chance for these kids to play in Memorial Stadium,” said Brad Ewing, parent of one of the players. “There are a lot of players from the area, but also from surrounding states like South Dakota. For many, this is a dream come true.”
The event is free and open to the public, allowing fans from near and far to watch some of the region’s premier high school athletes in action.
“It’s good for our younger kids to learn from them,” said Jason Batter, coach of Spirit Elite- Omaha. “And I can learn as a coach too. The atmosphere is really cool — the stands, the field — everything’s awesome.”
Adding to the excitement was the presence of former NFL star Cam Newton, who participated alongside his team and shared advice with the players.
“As a 7-on-7 player myself, it’s really cool to see Cam Newton here,” said Kamden Longs, a fan watching the events. “I want to be in that position one day — playing on a stage like this against great competition.”
Every matchup was a test of mental and physical toughness, with every team vying to walk off the field at Memorial Stadium with bragging rights and, perhaps, a future scholarship offer.
The tournament provides high school athletes with the opportunity to compete on a Division I college field, learn from some of the best coaches, and take a step closer to their dream of playing at the next level.
