SUMMARY: Shannon High School in Mississippi has a new head football coach, Ken Topps, who was a former star quarterback for the school in the late 1990s.

The team has not made it past the first round of playoffs since 2010, but with Topps’ leadership and the dedication of the players, they hope to meet the high expectations of Shannon football. Quarterback Trey Spurgon is learning from Topps to become a successful Shannon quarterback.
