Coaches and players, what a great year. JK, thank you for bringing a vision and a plan to Ronda for this program. Players thank you for buying into that vision.
Seniors, thank you for leaving your mark on this program. I know your lives will be taking you into different directions, but when possible reach back out to this program and encourage the future teams.
I would not dare to tell anyone on these boards that East Wilkes will win a state championship in football. I have been around high school football for way to long. I will tell you this for the next several years this program will be in the mix as long as a few things continue to happen.
Work hard, do what the coaches ask of you. Be proactive, seek the coaches out and have them teach you the in's and out's of football.
Keep a level head on your shoulders and be humble. Respect every team and remember that it also takes good health to continue to play well. Ask and trust the Lord for safety.
Have fun. Never let football become a job, but keep it a game. Enjoy the ride as you are only young once. Have fun.
Next year will be fun. We lose several great seniors, but we also have a ton coming back. This team started at least 4 sophmores and there is a strong junior class in place. I would give a slight edge to Wilkes Central, however East should be right there with them. WC, East, Starmount, Ashe, Alleghany and West should all be well. Alleghany was so young this year, but that program has potential.
Sure wish it was the beginning of football season again.
