David Richard, a former Lutcher High School star running back and head coach of the 1983 state champion Bulldogs, may have offered the best definition of 'Lutcher football.''It’s a football that’s an attitude. We are good. We will play hard every down. No matter the situation, we can overcome the situation. They (Lutcher players) know they will be supported by the fans. It’s an expectation from the parents and fans to expect them to play a certain way. When kids know that expectation is on them, they will perform to that level.'That understanding has allowed the Lutcher football to perform at a consistently high level. A perennial favorite as a district and playoff contender, the Bulldogs have captured five state championships.The Bulldogs: A History of Lutcher High School Football examines how teenage boys for generations have come together through hard work, dedication and sacrifice to form something greater than the individual sum of their parts - to create an ever-evolving definition of 'Lutcher football.'
