Faith benefits from spring practice as it moves from six-man to 11-man football
MARBLE FALLS — Faith Academy of Marble falls head football coach Russ Roberts is thankful for spring practice — even though it was a short 10 days.
“Had we not had spring training, we’d be in big trouble,” he said. “Because we bit the bullet and did spring ball, we have a chance to break even. I’m not sure we’ll need spring football next year, but I know we needed to have it this year.”
