Laddie's boy

Gary | 11 October, 2007 12:11 | (253)

If you remember Laddie Renfroe (Nashua High School Class of 1980), who spent seven years pitching in the minor leagues before a brief major-league stint with the Chicago Cubs,  you might be interested to know his son, David Renfroe, is the starting quarterback for the third-ranked high school football team in the country.

David Renfroe scored a touchdown, kicked a field goal and two extra points for South Panola High School of Batesville, Miss., in a 17-3 victory over rival Olive Branch. It was the 66th straight win for South Panola, which is ranked third nationally by Sports Illustrated and 13th by USA Today.

The younger Renfroe will most likely follow in his father's footsteps and play baseball in college. He's a top Division I prospect with a fastball already over 90 mph.

Renfroe is also the punter for South Panola. His father punted and kicked for the football team at Nashua and played goal for the first soccer team in school history.
