This Friday night the ongoing recognition program called, “JHHS Football First Family” that is designed to bring attention to family members who have been instrumental in providing the tremendous legacy that Jonesboro Hodge has created on the football field will honor the Brown family of Scott, Andy, Shannon and Wes. 

You would be hard pressed to find a family that bleeds red and blue more than the Brown brothers. For over two decades, including ten straight years, this foursome were main keys in JHHS reaching some of their greatest team acheivements both as players and coach. Scott, Andy, Shannon and Wes all were “two way” players known for not only their skill and ruggedness on the field but for their “team first” mentality in the locker room. Combined their efforts led to four district championships, a state championship, state runner-up, state semi-finalist and two quarterfinals appearances in ten years of competing in the playoffs as players. Shannon, who is currently on the JHHS staff, has also been head coach of the Tigers for eight years. 

Each will be introduced at halftime of the JHHS vs Lakeside football game this Friday, November 5th where they will be presented with “JHHS Football First Family” plaques and a copy of the “100 History of JHHS football” book.
