Congratulations to our final White County Farm Bureau Badger Football Player of the Week -
🏈 #79 Senior Garrison Waldrop! 🏈
Garrison plays both offense and defense. On defense last week, he had 6 tackles, one for a loss, and one sack. He has been captain for two years and will be missed terribly. Not only is Garrison a great player but an outstanding leader and student. He is a member of the Beebe Badger Drama Department and is a pretty awesome singer!
Way to go Garrison! #BPRD
