Football by the numbers

The first day of fall football drills was a sweat box with the heat index in the Heart of Oklahoma over 100 degrees.

Washington Coach Brad Beller said he has 60 players on the roster while Tracy Scott said the Dragons have 58 players that took the field Monday.

Keith Boles at Lexington welcomed 30 while Brandon Sharp at Wayne reported about 25 players came out.

Players have been in helmets and shorts for the first three days and could don pads starting Friday.
