I believe the answer is 23 consecutive victories for the Red Devils Varsity squad at Henry R Evans Stadium.
When was their last home loss you ask? 2nd game of the 2003 season losing to Ashland 33-14. BTW, my senior season at Ashland.

REMEMBER we are DEFENDING THE "R".
Yes we "R". And if anyone gets the opportunity, please comment on how good the "R" looks to a school board member, administration staff or A.D. I don't think anybody would have liked the looks of the first "R" that was painted without maroon paint and thanks to a couple of the boosters who took their case straight to the top and had it changed. The problem with the maroon paint is it is not environmentally friendly and it kills the grass. The repainting of the "R" resulted in not having enough time to paint Ivan McGlone Field in one of the end zones. But the big billboard was on that end of the field so I don't think anyone had a problem figuring out who's field it is now, and has been for the last 31 years.
Kudos go out to all that were involved in getting the stadium ready for the first home game. The facility is something to be proud of. Also if anyone gets the opportunity please thank Mr. Louie Gabbard for his volunteer work laying out the "R" and redoing the championship signs to include the 2005 championship. Most people involved with Russell Football know Louie, but in case you don't, just look for a big guy carrying a big "R" on Friday nights. Louie's price for all of his hard work was the same as always; tell the boys good luck Friday night.................

OKAY.........Devil68, took me awhile but Dng glad to see you made it...... I must have been stupid just looking at the Devil68.... Yes the R looked great,The field looked great, The painted endzones was a one of a life time thing Iguess.
You know you hear people outside Russell saying that the school is rich and the football program is well taken care of by the school, blah,blah,blah........
People do not realize that it is not the school but the Boosters, the parents and the ALUMNI of Russell who make it look the way it does.
I know that Sam Smith puts alot of time in, his oldest graduated last year Tim SMith, Micah Williams puts alot of time in, His boy graduated last year too. Louie Gabbard is still donating time and presents to the game, his boy graduated in 2003 played 2002.
AND all the current parents and boosters that make the place look like it does.
Keep up the good work parents and fans and boosters.

I'll have to agree with that statement. I am one of the people he mentioned. The boosters were asked for everything. The coaches asked for a stat program last year. So as the booster club we voted on it and approved it. About a week later the coaches came back and asked for a new laptop to run it on.
The boosters do an excellent job. They feed the boys every Thursday night. They tailgate for them on Friday nights. Trust me I hauled their stuff for the last 2 years. They sponsor a scholorship. They do field decoration and maintenance. If you like the looks of the stadium you can thank the boosters for it.
Sorry to derail the whole thread.
Russell wins handily!
