Blend of vets, newcomers pleases SU coach Richardson

A host of players — from a strong group of newcomers to veterans picking up their games — have made Camp Richardson XVI a strong one. “Overall, I’m real pleased with the first-year guys, with the attitude they have,” Southern coach Pete Richardson said. “They’re aggressive. They’re forcing people to step up.”

Among those newcomers drawing praise are running backs Byron Williams and Jerry Joseph, wide receiver LaQuinton Evans, offensive linemen Lee Almanza and Chris Browne and defensive linemen Ken Frankson and Kennon Gilliard, both from Yates High in Houston. Along with those true freshmen, that group also includes sophomore running back Silas Gibbs.
