FORT MYERS, Fla. (WMBB) – The Holmes County Blue Devils share their thoughts after winning the 2025 Rural Class state title. 'The game we played today, I told them, is this bigger than us. It's bigger than the program. Now we're talking about the community.' – Head Coach Jeromy Powell '(Lyndan Flanary) has been producing in situations like that all year, and I knew when he got out there, in the biggest moment we've faced, he'd come through for us.' – senior Colby Powell 'I told Carson, 'Get me to the plate, and I'll win this game for us.' And they did exactly that. I trust my teammates so much, we've been like family all year.' – junior Lyndan Flanary 'It's an awesome feeling. These are my brothers, and I wouldn't want to do it with anyone else.' – senior Bradley Garrett 'As soon as Colby crossed home, the emotions hit me, I started crying.
