Key Highlights

Getting better takes setting and upholding a standard with everything they do.
For a decade, the Green Wave have been doing so for longer than almost anyone in Mississippi.“What they're doing is not normal, and to play that many football games in consecutive years, it's really hard on kids.
It's hard on people,” Morgan said.
“It can grow old and tiring.
It gets tough, but we’ve got a special, special group, people that keep pushing, and it's led to a lot of success.”Only two defenses in Class 5A give up just nine points a game: West Point and its opponent tonight, the Brookhaven Panthers.
