I just finished this book about Rusty Russell and the Masonic Home Orphanage High School team of the 1930s and 40s. Talks about playing Highland Park at Ownby and later becoming the coach at SMU. It is a great read if you like high school football and its history in Texas. Highly recommended!

Read it last year. Great follow-up to 'The Junction Boys', also by Dent.

Twelve Mighty Orphans by Jim Dent - Great Reading!
