Al Countryman #22 DB/RB
The Watertown Red and Black Organiztion would like to congratulate Al
Countryman on his induction into the American Football Associaion Hall
of Fame Class of 2012. The list of accolades below are the reason #22 Al
Countryman has earned this honor. In Al's 13 years with the team he helped
the Red and Black earn 95 wins and bring us back to the top in the
Empire Football League. Al was a true IRON MAN to football. When starting
with the team in 1993 Al started out on the defense. By his second season
he proved to be he most feared defensive player earning EFL honors as a Iron
Man, defensive player of the year and a first team allstar. In 1998 when the
team needed an extra boost on offense Al went to Coach Ashcraft and said he
wanted to run the ball. In just four short season's he rushed for over 4,400
yards and became the number one rusher in Red and Black history. In 2006 Al
had become only he 2nd player in Red and Black history to have his jersey
retired. With his short stocky frame, quiet presence, and his ability
to change the game at any time, #22 will never be forgotten. On behalf of
The Watertown Red and Black, Coach Ashcraft, Coaches, players and fans at
this time we would like to thank you for your services to the organization.
Long live #22.
