“All of my other offer were pretty far away and I wanted to stay close to home but Coahoma treated my entire family as if they were the player, Qualls said.

Brandon Snowden:

Snowden had the job of protecting the quarterback and paving the way for the running backs on the offensive line. He did just that which earned him a scholarship to Louisiana Christian University.

“It feels like a University over there and they have a 100% graduation rate on their football team including being National Championship contenders for the past few years but their coach really showed that he wanted me,” Wright said. I want to thank all my coaches, parents and grandparents, all of my teammates both football and baseball, and the Warren County Ravens because I wouldn’t be here without them.”
