LION (The righteous are as bold as a lion … a lion, mighty among beast who retreats before nothing, Proverbs 28: 1b, 30:30. The Slaton Lions have deep roots: Shannon Adkins (Bradley’s Father) graduated from Slaton High School some years back. Early in life Shannon learned that the righteous are as bold as a lion. They just happen to live at Idalou, TX. where the team mascot is as you might guess ‘WILDCAT’ !
Bradley learned from God many things; including STOP, learn now and enjoy while approaching your goal. Impossible is actually two words, from God I’m Possible!
A person called Mama Bailey by many always gave her support to Bradley however she had cancer and before each treatment she always held a SMALL CROSS in her hand. All too soon she passed from this life so her husband gave Bradley THAT CROSS before he departed for RIO!
