Reeltown's Eric Shaw selected for Alabama-Mississippi game

File / The Outlook Reeltown's Eric Shaw (6) plays multiple positions but was selected to the Alabama-Mississippi All-Star game as a tight end.

No matter how good you are, it is still hard to be recognized on a statewide level if you’re from a smaller classification, especially when it comes to the Alabama-Mississippi All-Star football game.

Of the 40 selections to represent Alabama, only four of them were from classifications lower than Class 6A. One of those four was Reeltown’s Eric Shaw.
