Monday night was senior night for the Red Raider football
seniors, as well as dance team, cheerleaders and band members.
These seniors didn’t get to participate in a regular senior night
after their game on Oct. 30 with Riverdale was cancelled due to COVID-19.
Thunder Radio would have been there to broadcast the game, so we thought we should be there Monday night to broadcast senior night festivities at Carden-Jarrell Field. We were there to broadcast live. You can hear the podcast here:
The final Coffee County Central High School home football game of the year on Oct. 30 was cancelled due to COVID-19.
This also meant the cancellation of senior night.

Nearly a decade after picking up his phone to hear Chipper Jones say,
“I think it’s time we start to hang out,” Freddie Freeman can
now compare MVP Awards with the Hall of Fame third baseman.
Freeman was named the National League MVP when the balloting results were announced on Thursday night. The 31-year-old first baseman became the first Braves player to win an MVP Award since Jones in 1999.
