...Hornet Cody Akers finally made it back to the gridiron against Boswell – but he didn’t wear his usual jersey number of 16; instead, the senior donned No. 23 in honor of his injured friend Kolton Van Gelder. Akers scored four TDs in his first game of 2018, but it was Van Gelder’s name that was announced – and that appeared in box scores in the area, too. Coach Devon Dorris said he had no problems with the goodwill gesture between friends. Photo by Mark K. Campbell
