Jeff Davis High School may have taken the field at Cramton Bowl with a different look on Thursday.

But the Volunteers mimicked the same team that lost 19 of 20 games in the past two seasons, only in a different uniform.

Dothan was convincing in its 27-6 victory over JD, which wore a brand new style of uniforms (much like the look of the Oregon Ducks) for the first time since the school fielded a football team in 1968.

The defensive front may be the key to JD’s early-season success. (Staff Photo. For more photos, visit our photo gallery)

The message given to the Jeff Davis Volunteers by head coach Travis Pearson this week is simple.

“Let’s get a win!”

Undemanding to some but for a team coming off a 1-9 season and one that struggled to score points, it’s the right place to start.

Travis Pearson believes his second year as the head football coach at Jeff Davis will be better than the first.

In some ways, it already reached a higher level.

Then again, after a 1-9 finish, there was only one way to go.

The 2010 high school football season will be ushered in with pre-season drills this week. With it comes the usual heat, humidity and two-a-days.

For three Class 6A teams in Montgomery, it brings something new…. freshmen football players.

For the first time since the inception of the city junior high football program in the 1940s, three city high schools - Robert E. Lee, Jeff Davis and Sidney Lanier – will dress out a full complement of ninth graders for football practice (G.W. Carver already had access to junior high players through the link with its junior high school).
