Pinging a few of my buddies here at FR
(and a few I don’t know, just to annoy you)

What did you do yesterday afternoon? Here is a little of what I did, with the commentary on it.

High School athletes baptized week prior - article snippets.

Same High School State football players contend at playoffs at Brown’s stadium

marching bands & classy coaches & tournaments

A bit more info to show the differences between the two schools.. the privilege & the poor. BTW. I noted my figure of 85% was inaccurate for Solon white population. chart here shows 78%

Glennville Demographics etc

.Comparison of other Nearby Schools to Glenville

Solon Demographics etc

Reading your post was more inspirational than sitting in church. Thanks. Brought back some good memories of my Sunday Granny (cleveland resident)visits...she lived near this very neighborhood!

Check out this website and look at the whole thing, especially the history. Lincoln County Red Devils is the way football is spelled. I was fortunate to be able to play on the first state championship team of many, my son followed me years later on another one. For a small town in Georgia, having your coach ranked as 7th in the nation is not bad. Hope this works.

What an inspiring article. Thanks Dolly!

Rich or poor I'll bet on victory for the "Baptized" team any day of the week.

I'm not very much into football, and especially not high school or college, but I read your comments about the two teams (Solon and Glenville) with interest, Dolly. What an inspiration to read about the Glenville School team, their coach - and their spirituality.

Greetings DollyCali:

Thanks for the ping. The weather was beautiful, and the Solon vs Glenville game was great. And regardless of economic backgrounds, both teams and their supporters were a class act.

As far as the earlier Brush vs St. Edward game, IMHO, a terrible mismatch. My recommendation: hold the next St. Edward vs St. Ignatius game at the Browns Stadium.

Cheers,
OLA

My HS team is in the state playoffs, too.

The schools in our surrounding area made up 4 missed games because of the hurricane by playing on Tues. & Sat. We won the first playoff game.

We lost state last year by one point.
