Rising Watertown High senior Tyler Russell died Wednesday night following a two-car accident on the Sparta Pike. Russell, a D-Lineman for the Purple Tigers, was a passenger in a car with two teammates and a younger boy (brother of one of the other players). They were headed to pick up some clothes so they could spend the night together, then go to workouts together the next morning. Their vehicle was struck by a car driving on the wrong side of the road and was spun into a bluff. The other three were treated and released, Tyler died at the scene. Bond Memorial Chapel in Mt. Juliet is in charge of arrangements. Funeral services 10 a.m. Monday at the Galdeville Baptist Church. Terrible tragedy. By all accounts, Watertown lost a fine young man.

      Pickett is good, may have a Mr. Football like season if he’s used correctly. One of the best teams Marion has fielded in a while. I think they go 12-1 and loose to ER.  ER has better players at almost every position. If they play discipline this year, they win soundly. If they don’t though…Marion could sneak away with it.

      I’m betting the house on the Indians. Pickett and Co will be the only team to challenge the Indians in the East. Huntingdon can in the West. I think Brooks goes 15-0 and has the first perfect season and state championship in ER history.

      Sounds like a great opportunity has opened up for the football team.  With the head coach of the diamond rebels making it official and quitting this week, there should be some room for the gridiron guys to benefit. I assume the administration won’t continue paying six figures to two former coach that quit to continue teaching drivers Ed. Thats pretty good money that could be redirected toward the football program. Also, with the more recent policies of pushing kids to only play one sport, abolishing the baseball program altogether would help on Friday nights in the fall. There is some decent speed on that baseball team that should’ve been playing on Fridays IMO. I’m not sure if anybody would really miss that baseball program anyway with it being across town from the school. The liability of letting players actually use the facilities could also be mitigated with closing the program. That liability seems to be a really big issue for 825. Anyway, it seems like a great opportunity is available.

      Yeah, I read about their spring blue/gray scrimmage after I typed that.   Sounds like a real mess over there.  I just hate that for 'em.  Haw
