HSFT Stop #34: Calhoun Academy
SUMMARY: Calhoun Academy, led by head coach Benny Bryant, is motivated to return to the state championship after narrowly losing 32-26 last season.

Despite losing key players, the returning offensive line boasts strong chemistry, essential for their run game. The team’s focus on grueling conditioning is vital in eight-man football, as all players participate in every play. Calhoun Academy’s season begins on August 23 against DeSoto, with the goal of winning the state championship.
