First day of football contact

By Michael V. Hannigan/HCN

Friday was the first day that players could put on the pads and hit each other, according to UIL rules.

I had the chance to stop by practice at both Athens and Malakoff to see a little real high school football being played in Henderson County first the first time in the 2016 season.
