As we approach football season, let’s see what the team has been up to. And get your tickets here!

Did you know that the football team has a Lunch Pail that became the identity of the defense? It began in 1995 when coach Bud Foster was named defensive coordinator. The original lunch pail belonged to a coal miner and was acquired by the mother-in-law of then-co-defensive coordinator Rob Sharpless. Inside the pail was the defense’s mission statement, keys to success and goals.

🏈 Here’s more about the Lunch Pail.
