A shared success
(Misty Watson/The Daily Citizen) Dalton High’s Dante Thomas, left, and Caylor Summers, second from right, are congratulated by fellow senior Catamounts Scott Abernathy, second from left, and Tre Bonds. Thomas and Summers both had signing ceremonies in the Dalton High commons on Wednesday. Thomas, a defensive back, will play at Carson-Newman. Summers, who served as a manager the past three seasons, received a scholarship to fill the same role at Jacksonville State.
Dalton High’s Caylor Summers hasn’t been on the football field as a player since he was a freshman, becoming a team manager when injuries forced him to give up the game. The Catamounts’ Danté Thomas was such a shutdown defensive back in his final two seasons, most opposing coaches didn’t want their players on his part of the field.
