Big thanks to Saluki offensive lineman and team captain Ze'Veyon Furcron for getting us hyped for the home opener versus Dayton this Saturday.

The Carterville Lions were selected as the Week 2 Southern Illinois Healthcare Team of the Week after they beat Pinckneyville and followed that game up with a convincing win at Sparta.  Hear Coach Shane Hawkins speak with Matt Varney about that and more!
