By Lynette Norris Greene Publishing, Inc. The Monday before Thanksgiving, the Cowboys are still hard at work with daily football practice, and their hard work shows in the 11-game winning streak that has now has them in the state playoffs. Part of what makes the team so successful is their defense, as head coach Mike Coe has said on previ- ous occasions when speaking of the hard work the defensive line puts forth. Eddrick Williams, #12, defensive end, Brandon Crawford, #11, defensive end and Keldrick Williams, #6, nose guard, together form the Madison County High School Cowboys starting defensive lineup. Eddrick Williams, son of Latonya Boldin and Bobby Williams, Jr., has been part of the starting lineup for one year, and likes “Dragonball Z,” hot wings and French fries. Like Eddrick, Brandon Crawford has also been part of the starting lineup for one year. The son of Carol and Solomon Griffin, Sr., he also lists French fries as his favorite food. Keldrick Williams, son of Jerry Miller and Sonya Williams, has held the nose guard position for two years and says his favorite food is pork chops and his favorite TV show is “Sanford and Son.” One thing they all have in common is when they talk about their favorite Greene Publishing, Inc.
