Football season just around the corner
Both the Butler County High School and Butler County Middle School football teams are wrapping up a summer full of practices and are now taking to the field for game action.
The BCHS Bears, under the direction of first-year Head Coach Brandon Embry, travelled to Breckinridge County on Saturday for a preseason controlled scrimmage and will have another one at Caldwell County on Friday, August 10. The Bears are coming off a week-long team camp at Camp Loucon.
Coach Embry said both Camp Loucon and the Breck scrimmage went well.
“We did a lot of good things but still have some stuff to clean up,” said Embry.
Earlier this year, the team participated in 7-on-7 passing leagues at Ohio County and Russellville, and a 7-on-7 passing tournament at South Laurel High School.
Also, football media day is scheduled for 3 p.m. on Thursday, August 9.
