Re: Only 21 football teams for AA in 2017-2018 alignment
Let me preface this by saying what other schools do is up to them and should be in their best interest........That said, this talk of 8-man teams with 20 to 25 players only makes what the football team at Brookhaven Academy did even more admirable. A roster of 17 kids and never a week did they have more than 15 players available because of injuries with the schedule they faced, but they kept coming out there to represent their school as best they could until the able body count was below 11 players. They went into two games with only 12 and one game with 13 kids. But they never quit until they were told we just don’t have enough for the last two games. My hat is off to each one of those young men and their coaches. You have something to be proud of.
