Honoring the Aracoma Bulldogs Legacy | Charleston News

Logan High School in West Virginia is honoring its forgotten Black predecessor, Aracoma High, by unveiling championship banners for the Aracoma Bulldogs—victors of back-to-back state titles in 1948 and 1949—right before their home opener. Principal Zach Anderson says this isn’t just nostalgia; it’s a powerful act of remembrance for Coach Lacy Smith and the entire Aracoma community, now woven into Logan’s legacy. Former students, cheerleaders, and even the last living Aracoma graduate attended the emotional ceremony, underscoring how vital it is to preserve history—and inspire other schools to do the same.
