[Old school Dawg]

I wish there WAS SOME NEWS.Im disappointed at the low number of boys lifting.Expections are high but workout numbers are a disappointment.I hope baseball doesnt take away too many of our players.Guys I dont think you all realize how much work needs to get done to get back to the level Lawrence County football had reached.The last season where we played at times to that level was the 7-3 team led by James storts,Kyle Barnett,Short.That was a class alot of us believed had a chance at winning the state.That team got stunned by an early loss to Belfry, but of course Belfry went on to win the 2a state championship that year.The year we lost in the semi-final to Bourbon County, by a Jason Michael led team,I still believe we had the best team in the state.The team led by Nick Meadows had the biggest win in the history of the school over undefeated Breathith county and the biggest crowd to ever watch a sporting event in the county.The Gerad Parker led team ran into a buzz saw in Highlands.We scored 34 or 35 but could not stop them as they rolled up 70 points against us and that was in some peoples eyes the greatest team In LCHS history.I thought it was amazing that Parker led the state in receiving and we threw about 1 pass every ten plays but we also had Lawrence countys best back ever,,Michael west.Our offensive line on that team was far superior to our o-line the last four seasons for sure.Our linebacker play needs to improve drastically.Cody roberts is a good player to led a linebacker core.Defensive tackles need to make more plays for negative yardage.We have the players coming up that could take us to that level again but if they dont totally dedicate themselves to the football program we will stay just an average team.Back to the basics,,smash mouth football with a team that leans on its defense when things get tough!!I think we have some exciting football laying ahead myself but its not a guarantee.
