Local legends: Lanett and Valley players with ULM return to home area against Auburn

It was a bit of a homecoming on the ULM sideline this Saturday.

Two of the Warhawks who made the trip to Jordan-Hare Stadium to take on Auburn University came back to the area they once played high school football in.

Linebacker Seidrion Langston, who graduated from Lanett in 2021, was one of those players.

The former Panther put together a solid game in ULMs loss, making five tackles.

Langston was a member of Lanetts 2019 state championship team and headed off to Coffeyville Community College in Kansas before eventually ending up at ULM.

On the season, he has made 18 tackles and one tackle for loss in nine games played.

Langston was a part of the 2020 Opelika-Auburn News All-Area defensive first team for small schools.

Valleys Jaden Hamlin took a similar path to ULM.

After graduating from Valley in 2020, he signed with East Mississippi Community College.

He found success at the JUCO ranks, and his work ethic got him a spot on a Division I team.

While he didnt record a stat against Auburn, he did find the field and has six tackles and one tackle for loss this season.
