In this episode of Inside the Lines, Curt Conrad and Effie James welcome Lexington senior Dantrell Hughes, a standout WR/DB and track athlete who has Division I college offers. Dantrell reflects on the resilience of this senior class, how long-standing relationships have helped them bond and succeed and what it was like to overcome an injury last year that sidelined him. He shares the high expectations the team has for itself on and off the field, the improvements they’ve made from last season and how competing in both track and football has shaped his athletic growth.

The conversation dives into Dantrell’s perspective on playing both sides of the ball, how he maximizes his impact defensively and where he sees himself at the next level. He also discusses the unique experience of competing alongside his twin brother Latrell. The episode wraps up with rapid-fire questions covering everything from homecoming plans to pre-game meals to college aspirations.
