During Coach Jared Porter’s first season at Fayette as head coach, the team had a successful season, finishing the year with an 8-3 record, which included a trip to the high school football playoffs. However, Porter still sees room for a lot of improvement. “Our two regular season losses were to our traditional rivals, Gordo and Winfield,” Porter said. Those two losses kept us from hosting a first-round playoff game.”
