Freshman Football, Austin was one crazy Running Back; fast and furious. Austin went head to head with an opposing team player splitting Austin's helmet in two down the seam. The sound of the two helmets hitting was so loud. I can still see the hit occur in my mind as he ran past me on my right (on home - concrete bleachers) side. Austin got back up and jogged to the sideline the other payer didn't; they carried him off. I think it was that hit that caused Austin to not play JV or Varsity. As a side note, I believe Dan Fager was QB that game. Rest in Peace Austin.
