Prep football: Coal Grove's Murphy, Ironton's Williams head All-Ohio locals

Morning sun rises, cold weather in December and a Coal Grove running back earning all-state honors.

Murphy, a 5-foot-9, 190-pound senior, rushed for more than 1,500 yards this season to lead Coal Grove to an 8-3 record, the Ohio Valley Conference championship and a spot in the playoffs.
