THE CURIOUS CASE OF MAX FORD

He first suffered the knee injury during the track and field season last spring; then severely re-aggravated it during the first week of Football Workouts.

The prevailing wisdom at the time being that Max Ford's senior season at Macomb would be a complete washout.

The talented Defensive Back's left knee best described as a ticking time bomb of sorts.

Which made his presence on the field Friday against West Hancock...check that...his effective presence on the field Friday night a complete and total stunner.
