Dudley is the 3-AA champion
No chance to blog during the game, unfortunately, and I'm having difficulty getting my story posted online, but rest assured Dudley fans, Ricky Lewis Jr. has led the Panthers to the promised land. The defense was passable, but the passing game was unbelievable.
Lewis, a junior, was named the game's most valuable player after rushing for 150 yards and the Panthers' first touchdown and going 7 of 10 through the air for 196 yards and three scores. That came a week after completing 1 of 5 passes for 7 yards at Oxford Webb.
"They came prepared," Lewis said of the Cougars, "but we came even better (prepared) than we thought we would. Everybody came prepared to play: The O-line, D-line, offense _ we just came ready."

As a Dudley Alumnus and old teacher, it gives great gratitude & honor to see Dudley High School win the "big one". I'm over in Japan & to see the school achieve this accomplishment even sends "waves of impact" over here.
Many of the students of the team from the past four years were my students or had relationship in the community via the church. Again, it's great to see them continually show character & this championship is just the "cherry on top".
Let it continue in all facets of your life, books & sports, Dudley High.
Way to go, Coach Davis...and "Little Ricky" remember Who is the Reason for true success in your life.
