When you peel back the layers from their proximity and 62-game rivalry, the football programs of the Early Longhorns and Bangs Dragons are in very different places as they open the 2022 high school football season.
Mike Lee stopped by Early’s football practice Monday as the Longhorns prepare for their regular- season opening game at 7:30 p.m. Friday at Bangs. The Longhorns and Dragons are playing for the 63 time in a Brown County rivalry that began in 1946. Early won last year’s game 48-12.
