Jesuit linebacker Anthony Harrell lightened his load when he cut his dreads off to meet school dress code standards. His football load, however, got a whole lot heavier.

The starting linebacker will see a lot of action on the offense too.

Harrell won’t start on offense, but will rotate in during two-back sets with starter Miles Bennett and also will take a couple of turns at receiver.

“There’s a few guys now in the backfield that we feel comfortable with,” Jesuit head coach James Harrell said. “At the end of the day, we’ve got to block and our offensive line is pretty good.

“We’re excited with them.”
