  1. "LONG, LONG OVERDUE TO GET RECOGNIZE FOR GREATNESS,' AND EVEN THOUGH IT TOOK A LONG TIME, "I AM TRULY HAPPY FOR ALL OF YOU"!! "YOU ALL HAVE GREATNESS AND ROYALTY IN YOU"!!🌄🏡🏘️🌇🏠📺📽️🎥📻📚📰🗞️📒📑🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏅🏅🏅🏅🏅🏅🏅🏅🏅🏅🏅🏅🎖️💜🖤💜🖤💜🖤💜🖤💜🖤💜🖤💜

  2. I was transplanted from PA to Perry in '79, attended Perry High for two years. Never heard a thing about this. Now, for the first time, I'm experiencing something I can only call "Perry pride."

  3. Here, the reporting of overdue justice of black players not receiving championship rings…BUT look at the mascot. Now, all of a sudden…they have no problem with using Native American imagery for sporting purposes. NATIVE lives matter!

  4. All the way from NY…. I’m so sorry it took so long. Congratulations boys!! You’ve earned it!!! God Bless

  5. It’s simply shameful it took so long for this to happen! It made me sad, happy, and angry all at the same time… 💔💔💔

  6. History shall be your brothers keeper…the truth has set that city free and the desires of the players and race has been brought to Light and life… now let the healing begin…for every person of color who steps up to his dream and goal please…above all else remember this…IMMANUEL HALLELUJAH AMEN

  7. In the midst of such bad news, this is awesome. I lived in Houston County and I never knew it was a Houston High. I hope they do make it a movie😊

  8. Good for them. It’s so sad the awful, racist, discriminatory actions taken against Black people all over this country. Every family has a tale of woe.
