Who is on the Football Crew?...

We have a wonderful team of coaches and crew that teach, mentor and challenge our boys from week to week during the season. Who are they? As a first time football mom last year to a freshman player on the team I really wanted to know who was working with my son. I wanted to know who they were so I could also spend time praying for them and their families. I hope that this list is helpful and that you will join me in praying over our wonderful Metro coaches and crew.
