[DEVILOLOGIST]

Russell Red Devils, are from Russell, Kentucky. This is across the river from Ironton ,Ohio and close to Huntington, WV. We are always confused with either Russell County, or Russellville... Our kids played in the state baseball tourney this year in Louisville in the 11 yearold division and everything in the programs and on the souveniers said Russell COUNTY.. So my kids took a black permanent marker and marked out COUNTY.........What a way to be remembered?????

Anyway... NHC is tough and I expect to see them do very well next year..... I was talking to the coach before the game and his worry was keeping up with us and not wearing down.......I think we got a little tired at the end but when you drive 3 hours to play and then drive back.... well that may happen,, We chose to run the clock out in the 4th quarter and was not focused as much on trying to score but to keep the ball grind out the clock......I know the backs get alot of credit and rewards but they could not put up those years without my linemen.... If you got to see us play then you know now why I brag on these young men..... Very disciplined, very fundamentally sound and this is the first year that they have played together as a team for the entire season......


Thanks again to all the great people in Leslie County,, I look forward to playing again next year..... or if not us I will make sure that the next years team wil be there...
