SportsReportPatriots rip Raiders; playoffs next By BARRY BURLESON
Marshall Academy is averaging 35 points a game this season. Friday night, the Patriots scored 52, all in the first half. On “Senior Night,” MA wrapped up second place in District 1-AA and a sixth straight state playoff berth with a 52-13 mauling of Kirk Academy. Indians wrap up second in district, home playoff game By CLAUDE VINSON The importance of the game which was played on Indian ground Friday night in a drizzly, cold confrontation was a matter of travel. Both Byhalia and North Panola had identical Region 3-3A records (3-1) and the loser would have to hit the road in the first round of the playoffs, while the winner would be able to bask in all the glow of a home-field advantage. Cardinals finish 9-1 By BARRY BURLESON Coach Shane Stone could not help but get emotional when talking about his 10 seniors. They were freshmen when Potts Camp started its football program. Friday night, they walked off the field 45-10 winners over New Site to cap a 9-1 season. Hawks’ season ends with loss By BARRY BURLESON Holly Springs’ quest for a playoff position came up short Friday night at Kossuth. Coach Chris Rankin said his Hawks gave maximum effort but had execution problems in a 28-19 loss. They completed their season at 4-7. The Aggies move on the Class 3A state playoffs as the number four team from Region 1. Behind The Scoreboard SEC wars History and stats probably played a bigger role than some fans and players failed to realize in the games taking center stage in the SEC in week nine. The SEC didn’t have all of the really important contests. Across the spectrum, games like Notre Dame/Oklahoma, Texas A&M/Kansas State and Ohio State/Penn State were predicted to garner their share of attention. Of the three pairings mentioned immediately above, only one team of the six was not ranked in the top 25. Basketball season starts Saturday It’s time for area teams to hit the hardwood. The high school basketball season tips off this weekend for both Holly Springs and H.W. Byers. Lions eliminated from playoff hunt By BARRY BURLESON H.W. Byers couldn’t slow down the Falkner running machine Friday night. The Eagles, on a muddy field in Marshall County, had 314 yards rushing and downed the host Lions 54-22 in a Region 1-1A game. Potts Camp runs well at Itawamba Invitational The Potts Camp 2A cross country team ran in the Itawamba Invitational at Fulton on October 6. It was a cold morning, but it must have been exactly what the team needed, because several runners won T-shirts and had personal best times. The Lady Cardinals ran with 1A-6A, and there were 72 runners. Lady Pats second in tourney By BARRY BURLESON The Marshall Academy Lady Patriots opened the basketball season last week with a second-place finish in their own tournament. Coach Craig Dailey’s varsity squad knocked off Tunica and Magnolia Heights before falling to Kirk in the championship game. |
