2019 Season Week 2 Update



September 4th, 2019


Dear Colonel Parents and Family,

What a tremendous first week to kick-off our 2019 season!  Varsity and JV both won and we had a huge crowd and beautiful night for our first home game vs Scott HS (TN)



Scott HS Game Recap:

It was a solid team win - our offense generated over 500 total yards and our defense allowed less than 200 total yards.  Scott was o/12 on 3rd downs.  We ran almost 30 plays more than Scott did, starting with a 67 yard run by Cameron Gibbs.  Here are the stats and box score for the game: http://www.hudl.com/game/whitley-county-vs-scott/varsity-football/31782-10991783/box-score

Of course a highlight of the night was the recognition of our honorary captain Ryan Leach, a new tradition for each home game.  Contact me at jepirwin@gmail.com if you would like to nominate an honorary captain this season.

Ryan was nominated by senior DB Bobby Trent Downs.  Also each week we will recognize a teacher or staff member that has made a positive impact on one our players.  Our first honoree was Ms. Renee Lawson of the English Department.
