Statesboro's heart and soul
Wesley Budgett's knee injury may keep him down, but not out
SHS FOOTBALL 090514 178
Statesboro's Wesley Budgett (5) rises after taking down Wayne County's Kory Washington in the first quarter on Friday. Budgett suffered a knee a few plays later. The extent of the injury is still unknown, but Budgett will continue to be a team leader regardless of when he can get back out on the field.
A 38-25 loss to Wayne County last week stung the Statesboro Blue Devils. What hurts even more is the potential loss of a team leader. Midway through the first quarter, the Devils chased down a Wayne County ball carrier on a long run.
