Congratulations to Coach Doug Verby on winning the Large Class - 2023 Head Football New Hire of the Year Award. Anyone that has ever Co-Op'd a program will tell you it is extremely difficult! The job done on and off the field by Coach Verby and his staff deserve recognition. Brentwood had been a solid Class 1 program in its own right but to Co-Op with Clayton, who had struggled as of late, and a new staff while producing a 7-5 season is nothing short of amazing! @BCGreyhoundFB

Here’s the Chest X-Ray of a young girl suffering from a condition that is now the #1 cause of death in children and adolescents in the U.S.
