LYMAN — The Lyman High School football team had a better 2019 season then their 5-5 record would indicate:
Three of the Eagles’ losses came at the hands of some talented non-conference competition, and after posting a 4-2 record in the 2A West, head coach Dale Anderson’s team earned a berth in the 2A State Playoffs.
Lyman fell to a tough Thermopolis squad 49-14 in the opening round of state, though that doesn’t detract from what the Eagles accomplished this season. For their efforts, Lyman placed eight players on the 2A West All-Conference team (second only to 2A state champion Mountain View in West), with three of those players earning All-State honors. The Eagles will only lose five seniors to graduation, so next year’s team should be able to make some noise in the 2A West.
“We felt pretty good as a team going into the season,” Anderson said. “We were picked to finish near the bottom, so that’s a credit to our kids for coming out and working hard, being able to earn that second-place finish in the conference. We were excited about it.”
Eagles named to the 2A West All-Conference team include – Seniors: Richie Brewer, Hunter Gines, Hagen Lamoreaux and Blake Palmer; juniors: Preston Brewer, Hansen Bradshaw and Carter Smith; and sophomore Briggs Richards.
