Ethan Cash and the undefeated Vilonia Eagles look to spoil senior night for also-undefeated Greenbrier.
After an impressive 9-0 start to the season, Vilonia has proven that they belong in the discussion for this year’s Class 5A title.
“This season has been outstanding for everyone,” Eagles senior linebacker Ethan Cash said. “Every single player on our team has had a great year. Even though we are undefeated, we can still get better. Week after week, we’re focusing on the little things to make us better, whether it’s dropping catches or missing tackles. Our goal is to win state, and we do that by avoiding slow starts and preventing teams from hanging with us that shouldn’t be playing close with us.”
Tonight, the stage is set for what just may be the most important battle for the Judge’s Cup in Faulkner County history. With both Greenbrier and Vilonia flexing undefeated records and the Class 5A West conference title up for grabs, someone must lose this Friday night. Cash says it won’t be the team wearing red and white.
We wish you a very successful post-season, Ethan, and want to officially congratulate you on being chosen as a 2021 501 LIFE Football Team Member.
