Senior receivers Parker Fulghum of Evangel and Calvary’s Aubrey Hermes finished their careers this past season ranked third and fourth respectively in the list of all-time leading receivers in Caddo-Bossier.
Fulghum climbed a pretty big ladder to get within one catch of former Eagle Steve Parker (236-235) on the list of career catches. His 69 receptions in his senior year were 20 fewer than his junior season but his yards per catch went up with 168 more yards. Catching passes from his twin brother Peyton led to a career of 235 catches for 3,876 yards and 38 touchdowns.
Hermes and teammate Kolby Thomas both had a school-record 70 receptions in 2023. Hermes had 1,363 yards and 15 touchdowns. Thomas 817 yards and 11 scores while Louisiana Tech signee John Simon IV caught 51 passes for 848 yards and 9 touchdowns.
