Walton, Lassiter Scratch Out Wins

Pope and Kell won easily on Friday, while Wheeler and Sprayberry lost Homecoming games.

After three quarters Friday, Lassiter had just 16 points on the scoreboard. 

Woodstock's defense had something to do with that, along with a few injuries for the Trojans. 

But Lassiter, ranked No. 2 in Class AAAAAA, pulled away in the fourth quarter to win 30-7 in a Region 5AAAAAA game. 

Eddie Printz threw for 170 yards and a touchdown, Willie Police scored a touchdown and so did linebacker Patrick Levandoski, on an interception return in the fourth quarter. 

The Trojans (5-0, 2-0) can now turn their full attention toward Friday's clash with Walton on Friday.

The 6th-ranked Raiders (4-1, 2-0) won their Homecoming game 21-7 over Cherokee, as Tyren Jones ran for 180 yards and scored two touchdowns in another Region 5AAAAAA game. 

After the game, Walton coach Rocky Hidalgo was rewewing the "Super Bowl of East Cobb" reference he dropped before last year's regular season meeting with Lassiter. 

“Lassiter and Walton can’t stand each other, so we’re going to go over there and play our tails off and do everything we can to win that game," he said in the Cherokee Tribune.

In another Region 5-AAAAAA game, Wheeler fell in its Homecoming game, as Milton rolled to a 34-13 win. The Wildcats (3-2, 0-2) have lost two games in a row after a strong start. 

Sprayberry also was playing its Homecoming game, and the visitors spoiled it Sequoyah got the game-winning touchdown in the final two minutes in a 41-34 contest. The Yellow Jackets are 1-4 on the season. 

Their two East Cobb rivals in Region 7B-AAAAA rolled to easy victories Friday. Pope got 175 yards rushing and three touchdowns from Ron Woods to crush Cambridge 49-7 as the Greyhounds improved to 3-2. 

Kell had no trouble with North Springs, winning a 48-0 rout that pushed the Longhorns to 4-1 on the season.

Louise although I do not follow your faith, I appreciate your understanding about being inclusiveRead More for everyone in this country, rather than just the ones you want to include.

If you follow Christ’s teachings then you must acknowledge that the sole domain for sex is theRead More married man and woman. One of the problems in our society is the acceptance of (or participation in) a behavior simply because we find out that someone we like participates in that behavior. Whether it is a teenager who thinks doing illegal drugs is OK because their best friend does it, or those who now accept homosexuality because they have discovered a family member or friend is homosexual. One can still love the other person without embracing the particular activity. As St. Augustine wrote in the "City of God" - "the character of human will is important...since no one is evil by nature, but whoever is evil is evil by vice, whoever lives according to God should hold a perfect hatred for evil men. He should not hate the man because of his vice, or love the vice because of the man."

The reason that they call you bigots is because you are bigots. Look the word up in the dictionary.

I guess not since Boston marathon incident, terror from within USA is prevalent.

I'd say heighten our security alert levels for all events nationwide since as a nation we have manyRead More enemies worldwide, including festivals, marathon races, all sporting events, everything were there is a large gathering of people.

I don't think there is any way to stop these things from happening. Or just stop everybody who hasRead More a backpack. There really is no way to watch everybody. There is a fine line between surveillance and rights to privacy and civil rights.

shares that the easy (Matthew 11:30) way to make sure our neighbors around us are in a right stateRead More of mind (i.e. neither homicidal or suicidal) is by simply asking them how they're doing and persisting past the "pat answer" to determining if they are able to say they are "wonderfully hungry" because homicdal/suicidal people cannot say they are "wonderfully hungry" because they'd definitely **not** be looking forward to their next meal.

A better question would be, why do theKSU police department need M-60 machine guns? And have theRead More KSU police department received training the the proper methodology for tactical use of a crew served weapon? An M-60 machine gun is not a sniper weapon; it is designed for use against troops, plural, in the open field. But what the heck ...let's go ahead and issue them a flame thrower and a couple dozen hand grenades as well!
Marlene Mitchell May 13, 2013 at 10:23 pm
How many M-60's do they have?

In 1997, when the number "42" was universally retired, 13 active players were wearing theRead More number and were allowed to keep using it until they left baseball. Mariano Rivera, the consummate closer for the NY Yankees, is the last player in Major League Baseball wearing Jackie Robinson’s No. 42. He will retire at the end of this season...and Robinson's number will also be retired.

This movie was great!

Retiring Jackie's number was huge. I created a visualization of MLB teams who have retired numbersRead More (including 42). Check it out: http://bit.ly/14wUpGq
