Tomorrow, I will list the Mississippi CC players that were listed in the Others to Watch section. There are 30 of them. Later this week I will post the complete Mississippi CC schedule for the upcoming season. A big thank you goes to Northwest Mississippi CC's Brett Brown for providing this info to me. With Brett's help, as well as help from other contacts who know a lot about the community colleges in Mississippi, I hope to provide the coverage the community colleges in Mississippi deserve.

08/07/98 - Brett Brown, a 1988 graduate of Northwest Mississippi Community College and presently the head coach of the Northwest Mississippi Community College tennis program and assistant for sports information, has very kindly agreed to provide weekly Mississippi community college football info for my page. Included in this info will be weekly scores and statistics (Brett gathers this info for all community colleges in Mississippi and provides it to the media). He has also faxed me the complete schedules for each community college in Mississippi, the 1998 NJCAA Pre-Season All-American team and several other things I believe each of you will be interested in. I will post as much as I can over the next few days. I would just like to say welcome aboard, Brett. Your contributions will be immeasurable.
