This season, Pocahontas County Middle School Football is primed and ready for battle as last year’s Head Coach Kyle Graae returns to football, as delighted as ever. His flaming passion for teaching and bringing young teens to football drives his players to attend practice, even through scorching hot temperatures. Through tremendous training and hard lessons, the Middle School team is proud to say that they are overflowing with pride and confidence, and that they will not only win, but will thoroughly enjoy this season!
The team is led by eighth-graders Joey McClure, James Smith, Jaxon Hill, Levi Hill, Liam Burdette, Mitchell Koerber, Noah Foe and Payden Kerr.
When asked for his thoughts on this upcoming season, Couch Graae said, “I’m optimistic for this season! The offensive line will be our work-horses.”
