Gilmer vs. New Boston Scrimmage Canceled

I would rather not go into many details at this time, but, due to a tragedy within the New Boston football program, the Lions scrimmage on Thursday night against Gilmer has been canceled.

 

Both Coach Traylor and Coach Thomas knew I would be posting this information.

 

I've contacted numerous coaches in Class 5-A, 4-A, 3-A, and 2-A in East Texas in case they want to add Gilmer to a three-way scrimmage, but, that's basically irrelevant at this time.

 

Again, I just don't feel comfortable giving out more information at this time. I'm sure, as the day progresses, more information will become available.

 

Meanwhile, please keep New Boston in your prayers.

 

Thank you.

I appreciate everyone respecting my initial request for as much privacy as possible. But, yes, awful news, a young man is gone too soon, far too soon, and a program, school and community is grieving.

 

God Bless the young man involved too, he will need tremendous support over the next few days, months and into the future.
