Autaugaville football comes off a 3-7 season. Now the Eagles are looking to turn that around so they can make the playoffs. Several big keys include developing their freshman quarterback and using the playmaking abilities of 8th grader Jason Brown.
“We have a young eighth grader who’s going to be electrifying,” Autaugaville football assistant coach Marcus Burrell said. “Last year, he had a couple of kick returns for touchdowns. He caught a couple passes. So this year, we’re gonna definitely rely on his speed, and we’re just making sure he’s in the right position at all times.”“Last season, we wasn’t really big on teamwork,” Brown, a wide receiver and defensive back said.
For Autaugaville junior offensive lineman Dekeidrich Pettiway, that good season includes making it to the postseason. “Let’s make it to the playoffs,” Pettiway said. “Beat Autauga Academy, cause they’re one of our rivals this year: Autauga Academy. Get our Golden cleats back from the Bears.”
