The excitement and happiness are what we wanted to feel when hopefully lifting up a trophy. We needed to prove that not one person can talk down about us without there being a consequence. Every day for hours we pushed ourselves and each other. We became stronger individually and as a team. It was time for preseason, and this is where we must justify our position in our division. We played in one of the hardest group divisions in the whole country, which was exceptional because that left no room for failure, it just left room for us to

As the movie progressed and Coach Boone’s vision came together, Coach Yoast slowly but surely began to show more support. Coach Boone’s consistent preaching, that he did not view the team as black and white players, but instead, simply as football players who must form cohesion and take actions not for self, but for team, eventually rubbed off on Coach Yoast. This is where the culture in the coaching staff began to form. Trust also began to build and the three coaches, now more cohesive themselves were able to accomplish much more in order to coach their players much more constructively. By the time the Titans had made it to the championship, all three coaches had put their differences aside, bought in to the vision and culture, and were able to coach their players to victory.

Growing up in Southeastern Kentucky I have always felt a little out of place. Whether that be because of the way that I dress, the fact that I don’t like country music or the fact that I don’t represent the standard model of what a “true” Southeastern Kentuckian is. One of the vastest differences between me and the majority of people around where I live lies within the area of politics. Where I live is known for being one of the most conservative Republican areas in the country. Just walking or driving around town you can see a plethora of Republican memorabilia, both negative and positive. For some, being one of the only Liberal Democrats in a strongly Conservative Republican town may not seem like that big of a deal, however, like most things,

My first memory that I have of Hotchkiss was the day that I was enrolled in kindergarden. It was the first time that I had seen the town since we had moved here from Texas. To a kid who had never seen anything other than endless acres of shrubs and mesquite trees, the towering mountains and greenery blew me away. For months I would spend all of my time after school exploring where I lived and biking around town with my friends. As the years have gone by this tiny town has still kept that certain magic that enthralled me as a kid, if only in a more reminiscent way rather than just pure wonder. However, the most important part of Hotchkiss to me is the effect that it had on who I am. From the day that I became a part of this lovely town, I have learned three major values that have played a key role in the decisions I’ve made. These values were hard work, community, and pride.

Billy wanted the truth so he went to the railroad by the river and he knew if there was an answer he’d find it there. So him and a couple friends got into a train car on the train tracks and they set out to find it. They looked for hours and hours when finally they got to the end of the tracks there was a cave but it’s already dark and they didn’t bring flashlights so they went back to the beginning. They came back the next day but when they got to the end the cave wasn’t there but they saw the tracks continued. When they continued they found another cave so they walk in and it lights up.

Coach Dix believes that this style of coaching helps him motivate his young team. Being that crazy, funny, heady, and intense coach gets the young teens pumped and ready to run through a wall for him. When we talked about the difficult situations he has had to endure while coaching, Dix described two situations that occurred during his tenure at East Hall; Coach Dix mentioned a time when his star player who happened to win the Georgia Player of the year the previous year, kicked a ball during practice and broke out a window in the gym. He stated this was a difficult and sticky situation because the team played its big rival in two days. He said he did not sleep well the next few nights because of the impact a suspension would have on his squad. Another situation Dix had to deal with was a parent during a game, walked to the bench, grabbed their son and told the player to get dressed, we’re transferring from this school. Dix said that this was new territory for him and at that time he did not know what to do. To conclude the interview, I asked Dix two final questions. I asked him what were his ultimate goals for his team and what advice would he give to a first year coach? “Championships and graduation,” Coach Dix stated. As for advice for a first year coach, Dix said “Preparation was KEY.” “Great coaches are always prepared for anything and everything!”

It’s been a great experience coaching and mentoring kids in the same park I once played in. I will never forget the memories of me walking on that practice field for the first time as an adolescent. I had seen and heard so many great things about the program to the point I was anxious to be a part of that hard nose “Bulldogs tradition”. I had heard all about the coaches from Marcus Jerry, Corey Denson, Craig Davis, and D. Millines etc... I heard everything I needed to know about “Coach Bo”, before ever meeting him. Everyone said he was tough, but he was fair. Everything they told me turned out to be the truth. “Coach Bo” showed me how to be a man through football, Coach Rodney was a great coach and communicator, although he rarely raised his

This was the exact place where my mother grew into a women. I’m chomping on my food as we coast farther into the neighborhood. When I glance at my surroundings, my eyes turn into wide saucers. I was captivated by what had managed to happen over the years. It was as if a spirit has blew on the neighborhood and knocked everything down. You would think a storm caused this disarray, but this is what crime and corruption does communities. The food weighed in my hand, for I was no longer hungry, just in complete shock. The air was eerie and uncomfortably silent as we turned the corner. My mother’s gasp breaks the silence and I snap my head in her direction. “This was my friend’s house! I would come over to watch movies and eat popcorn in her basement,” my mom moans, getting emotional. This house was charred, allowing red bricks, scorched wood, and glass to collect in a heaping pile, leaving only the chimney standing. The more we drove around this neighborhood, the more it looked like an abandoned warzone then a tight-knit community that once caused my mother so much
