Troy’s Neal Brown challenges youth to be spiritual leaders

Troy head football coach Neal Brown shares a laugh with Jeff Coleman at the Wiregrass Fellowship of Christian Athletes' annual awards banquet Tuesday at the Wiregrass Rehabilitation Center.

“Our team’s definition of leadership is ‘influencing others,’” Brown said to the crowd at the Wiregrass Rehabilitation Center. “From the CEO to the lowest man on the totem pole, everyone is a leader because everyone has an opportunity to influence others.”

Brown’s message was borne out of a motorcycle accident in Gulf Shores that claimed the life of Troy football player Nathan Harris on April 30.
