Arkansas TE pledge Courney heads up young Dragons

FAYETTEVILLE — After leading Dewitt to a 7-5 season, qualifying for the state playoffs for the first time in 20 years and winning its first postseason game in 40 years, Dragons head coach Mark Courtney knew his young 2020 team would likely have its ups and downs.

The father of 2022 Arkansas tight end commit Dax Courtney (6-6, 212) has already experienced both with a 36-6 road loss to McGehee in the season opener and a 46-6 home win over Drew Central on Friday.

Next up for the Dragons (1-1) is a Friday meeting with visiting Stuttgart (2-0), which has whipped Star City 42-12 and Warren 36-0 in its first two games.
