(Cleves, Oh.) – Taylor High School will honor the late Brady Gabbard with a special marking on its football field tonight when the Yellow Jackets host Lawrenceburg.

Athletic director Larry Herges announced Thursday that the hash marks on the 28-yard line have been painted orange in memory of the 14-year-old, who passed away in early July after a battle with cancer.

The Taylor student section will also wear orange to show their support to the Gabbard family and Lawrenceburg community.

The Battle for Route 50 will kick-off at 7:30 p.m.

Lawrenceburg is looking to bounce back from an opening week loss versus East Central, while Taylor looks to improve to 2-0.

Yellow Jackets head coach David Dransman picked up his first career varsity win last Friday against Greenon.
