IRONTON òòò½ÊÓƵ” Beau Brownstead wants to be able to say he played college football, not just that he was on the roster.
IRONTON - Beau Brownstead doesn't want to break his dad's records, be known as a better football player then him nor earn a scholarship to a bigger school.
PEDRO, Ohio òòò½ÊÓƵ” Rock Hill High School football players don't make excuses, not with T.J. McGinnis on the team. McGinnis doesn't allow it, although he doesn't say a word. The 6-foot-2, 240-pound fullback's actions are motivation enough. Born without a right hand, McGinnis does everything any other player does, but better than most.
IRONTON - Garrett Carrico doesn't mind sharing.
The 5-foot-11, 185-pound senior running back at Ironton High School likely will carry the football plenty as the Fighting Tigers' featured back, but he figures to have more help than he did last year when he rushed for a team-high 923 yards and 14 touchdowns on 139 carries.
SPRING VALLEY - Maybe Elijah Wellman's position on the West Virginia University football team's roster should be "TB."
Tailback? No - teddy bear.
