Kelser and Rutledge to take on Johnson Twins Sept. 11th

Football fans will all have a chance to see some of Bibb County’s best in college football action very soon.  Last week it was announced, that Sillman College will host Tuskegee University on Saturday, September 11th at 5:00 p.m. 

The game will take place at Stillman Stadium in Tuscaloosa.  This will be a conference game, as both teams are members of the SIAC (The Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Conference).  For fans of the Bibb County Choctaws as well as the West Blocton Tigers it will be an opportunity to see last year’s standouts from those high schools play at a higher level.

BCHS tailback, Quail Rutledge will suit up with the Tigers of Stillman, as will West Blocton star fullback/linebacker, James Kelser.  BCHS athlete, Justin Sanders has also been picked up by Stillman but awaits completion of work at Shelton State, before he joins the team.

On the other side of the ball, former BCHS standout twins, Courtney and Neil Johnson will likely both suit up on the defensive side of the ball for the Golden Tigers of Tuskegee.  All members of the Bibb County area should feel encouraged to attend this match up and support their local athletes, as these warriors continue their legacies beyond the high school level.

    I am really excited about seeing this game. Penn State visits Alabama on the same day, but the heart of this community should be at Stillman field.
