Pop Warner

David Marshall of Jackson, the onetime Eastern Regional Pop Warner director, today was sentenced to 27 months in prison for helping himself to hundreds of thousands of dollars in the organization's funds.

A onetime regional director in the Pop Warner youth football organization from Jackson awaits a scheduled June 25 sentencing for systematically diverting money for his own use over the span of several years.

It hasn't been a great year for sports fans in our area. Which is a bit of an ironic statement if you think about it, all the usual favorites (save the lowly NY Mets) were in the baseball playoff hunt up until the very end.
