Gallatin County begins second decade

The first decade of Gallatin County football comes to an end this season. Head coach Tim Browning has been the front man for the Wildcats since the beginning and seen the program grow leaps and bounds over the past few years.

Maintaining depth to be competitive has been a struggle but Gallatin County has seemed to find a way to weather the storm under Browning’s guidance. This fall will be no different as the “next man up” philosophy will be the mantra as the offense returns enough pieces to be respectable. The defense loses some of its top experienced players filling those holes is a big hurdle for the Wildcats.

When they take the field this August you can bet that the boys from Warsaw will put up a fight.
