[Ram-Fan]

Raceland could go 9-1 this year or 8-2 with POSSIBLE losses to Lawrence and Ashland-POSSIBLE, yes they will be young but the talent and mentality or Football Smarts is there with these guys. The younger kids coming up have been in the system, already, know the job requirements and stunts that will be called. 2 years in a middle school program that grooms them for highschool really is effective. The Family atmosphere there is the glue to this program and that Everyone believes in the coaches and what they do. BIG SUPPORT from fan base and kids who are focused will play. Great returners this year, Marcus Reed is a beast, Caudill is a beast, not withholding the lineman that are returning. Remember that they had 4 freshman starting/playing last year. Loosing just a few seniors that started is a concern that has already been addressed. Other junior classmen are really stepping up in the weightroom and FOOTBALL101 ! This year is going to be exciting, they are strong, finishing second to Scott Co in the weight meet, who brought three teams. Strongest POUND FOR POUND at the meet was MARCUS REED, projected tailback/featureback at Raceland this coming year. I think he is around 165 pounds and started his squats at 465, think he ended up throwing a 495 as the best. Not bad for a SPRINTER!!!!. Yea we are very happy with the team progression and the devotion of the players. When you ask alot from your kids and they produce, they see the rewards that keeps them coming for more..... I see a bright future ahead for RACELAND, Even if LCA was still in our conference we feel that we were ready for them, Our middle school program defeated them in 7th and 8th grade and have the understanding of their offense and schemes, go figure, they run the same as us....... Still the future looks good and people are happy..........why you ask????,,, Because it is a great day to be a RAM FAN!!!!
