SUMMARY: The West Point Green Wave football team, aiming for its 14th state title, has appeared in the championship game for ten consecutive seasons. Their sustained success is rooted in faith, with head coach Brett Morgan emphasizing a strong spiritual foundation through FCA and reliance on God. Senior leadership also plays a key role, as each class sets the tone for younger players. The team prepares by facing top-tier opponents like Tupelo, Starkville, and Lewisville early in the season. With a “fours up” mentality, the Green Wave focus on fourth-quarter resilience, pushing themselves to give everything until the final whistle.
