PSN Spotlight - Westlake Lions Football "Working To Get Past That Step"
In one week, the Westlake Lions football team will open up their 2021 season taking on the Archer Tigers in their first ever appearance in the annual Corky Kell Classic, a well-deserved opportunity for the Lions as they are coming off a 2020 season in which they advanced to the Georgia High School Association Class 6A semi-finals and finished the season with an 11-2 record, 5-0 in region for the region championship. And for Coach May and the Lions, momentum carried over into their spring and summer activities as he says things were “great” for them during that time together.
“We had a great spring and summer, it’s been good,” May said adding that they’re looking forward to playing a “healthy, full season”. May also touched on the fact that last season’s semi-final loss to Lee County has made his returning players “hungry” to take things a step further this season. “We’re going to continue working to get past that step. It’s been kind of a boost to our program and it’s kind of put us on the map a little bit,” May stated, adding that now his players realize they now have a “target” on their back when it comes to facing many of their opponents.
