There will be even more along the sidelines.

In all, four members of the Lampasas High School family will make the trip to Waco this summer to take part in the Fellowship of Christian Athletes’ Super CenTex Victory Bowl.

Seniors Rush Seaver and Brandon Abbott will represent the Badgers by putting on the pads, while Lampasas head football coach Joey McQueen works as an assistant coach, and Chelsea Ragland takes part as a cheerleader. The quartet will side with the Blue Team and line up across from the Red Team when the game kicks off June 12 at Baylor University’s Floyd Casey Stadium.

Waco University’s Matt Carroll will serve as the Blue Team’s head coach. Joining him will be Stephen Burrow (Groesbeck), Robert Little (Chilton), Gary Proffitt (Goldthwaite), and McQueen.

Practices for players and cheerleaders begin three days prior to the game on June 9. Participants also will take part in service projects and various clinics.

A Victory Bowl banquet will be hosted at the Ferrell Center on April 11.

Players, cheerleaders and coaches for the game are chosen from a group of 85 high schools located within 12 counties in the Central Texas area.
