Two more teams took their names off the area’s football winless list Friday.
East Ridge and Meigs County, both fairly young teams, surprised Howard (21-6) and Meigs County (12-6) respectively.
“You take your lumps – and we’re covered with ’em – but for us it’s a two-edged sword,” Meigs coach Ricky Holliday said. “We’re you’re starting a bunch of 15-year-old kids against basically grown men, you’re going to take some lumps. But they kids haven’t quit. They’re a really good group.”
Though they have been banged and bruised, the Tigers are feeling better.
“Yep, we’re taking our lumps, but it’s a two-edged sword,” Holliday said.
