Chiefs Week: Toby Weaver’s Very Special Championship Delivery
December 13, 2012
The Northview Chief’s Class 1A state football championship trophy received very special treatment as it was transported from Orlando back to Bratt.
Toby Weaver, son of Northview Principal Gayle Weaver and her late husband Tommy Weaver, kept the trophy for his boys after the win. Toby, mom Gayle said, held the trophy close practically the entire trip back from Orlando. He even kept the trophy in his room Sunday night before delivering it Monday morning to head coach Sid Wheatley at Northview.
Toby is a Friday night fixture on the Northview sidelines, cheering on his Chiefs and motivating the team. Under his No. 7 jersey during the state championship game, Toby wore a t-shirt that simply said “Tommy”. The Chief’s 2012 football season was dedicated to his dad Tommy, a beloved Northview teacher and coach who passed away in March.
