Louisiana defensive back teammates Chanse Sylvie and Rodarius Williams set to join opposite sides of Bedlam rivalry

Chanse Sylvie and Rodarius “Lee Lee” Williams patrolled the same defensive backfield at the same Louisiana high school, but not long ago, the pair was locked in a Pop Warner football rivalry.

“We used to always play them in the championship,” Williams said. “It was a big game for us.”

Said Sylvie: “He actually was my enemy.”

The personal battle was short lived, though, after they enrolled at the same middle school where a friendship fast developed and continued through their final football season at Calvary Baptist Academy in Shreveport this past fall. However, a twist of fate has seemingly led them back to their roots.
