Morgan City High track will have Olympian's name

At Friday's Morgan City High homecoming football game, the school's track was named for Vernon "Tootie" Norwood, the MCHS grad who brought home gold and bronze medals from the Tokyo Olympics. Norwood is shown holding his nephew, Tamaje Ray, on his shoulders. Among those present were his high school track coach, Denver Chapman Jr., and Morgan City Councilman Ron Bias. Out of the picture to the right were Mayor Lee Dragna and MCHS Principal Tim Hymel.
