Just out of curiosity. How many players is your team dressing this year? DeSales has 80, which I believe is pretty good for 2A football.

Caldwell County had 78 kids in uniform for picture day on Thursday. That's the most the Tigers have ever had. We used to consider 50 to be a lot!

I was impressed with DeSales last year. The Byrd kid was the best running back Caldwell saw last season not named Jonathan Jackson. The Colts showed a lot of heart coming back against Caldwell the way they did and, even though I'm a Caldwell fan, I really felt for the DeSales kids after the game.

That being said, I think Caldwell and Glasgow are going to be the top two teams in the west this season. Then again, who would have said this time last year that Caldwell and DeSales would have met in the state semifinals in 2012?
