Friday Night Lights

Tomorrow night (Friday) the Roadrunners will be under the lights for the first time this season at Neyland Stadium for the 2009 KOC Jamboree. Roadrunners will match-up against Halls High School for what Coach Graham and company hope to be a coming out party for what is to come in 2009.

During summer camp '09 the Roadrunners had three scrimmages. Throughout each scrimmage the Roadrunners grew stronger and stronger. The defense only gave up one touchdown and continued punishing opposing offenses'. The offense showed signs of greatness as well. Many believe that the Roadrunners have started faster and been more consistent than they have in a long time. Graham believes his team is very close to reaching that level of greatness acheived by previous state championship teams, but there is still work to do.

This should be a great year! So come out this friday and begin to support your 2009 Austin-East Roadrunners.
