The Lamar Middle School Competition field will now be known as Lamar Middle School Brad Dusek Field in honor and memory of the former Temple High School star who went on to play linebacker for the Washington Redskins.

“We are so pleased to be able to name the competition field here at Lamar Middle School in honor and memory of Brad Dusek,” Bobby Ott, superintendent for Temple Independent School District, said. “He was very proud to be a Lamar Bearcat and built the foundation of his athletic career at this campus.”

Temple ISD held the renaming ceremony between the A and B eighth grade football games against Lake Belton on Tuesday evening.
