The Deweyville Pirates (1-0) will host Cushing (1-0) on Friday and they will be honoring a former player for the rest of the season.
The Pirates helmet logo will include the number 8 that was worn by Shawn Dreyer. Dreyer graduated in 2022 and passed away in June of this year in an automobile accident in Starks, La.
“Most of the seniors played with Shawn and almost everyone around here knew him,” said Coach Brandon Prouse. “He was just that kind of guy. We wanted to honor him for everything he did for the program and the school.”
Dreyer was All-District in football and basketball and also went to the Regional Track Meet. He was also part of the 2020 football team that won the first playoff game in school history.
