Heritage Hall (8-4) vs. Pawhuska (10-2)
When: 7:30 p.m. Friday
Where: Pawhuska HS (I’ll be there)

I’ve been accused more than once of short-changing the rest of the Heritage Hall team. With that type of sophomore class, it does happen from time to time.

Not on purpose, but it’s tough to ignore Barry Sanders, Sterling Shepard, Markus Wakefield, Marc Robinson, Quintaz Struble, Brandon Moews, Cale Courtney, and the list goes on and on.

But those sophomores have been quick to point out to me a number of times what the seniors have meant to them and to the team.

Seniors Austin Smith and Tanner France are able to make some plays on offense at the wide receiver position. Smith is also a kicker while France plays in the secondary.

But there are a couple of seniors on defense that sometimes get overlooked: Travis Harrison and Logan McGrath.

That’s why I focused on the two in Wednesday’s story because they don’t get the recognition all the time.
