New QB here, new one there in GHSA

Most Georgia teams have at least one game under their belts and some squads were breaking in new quarterbacks after watching previous signal-callers depart to college.
-South Gwinnett is on its second replacement for last year’s starter Kent Rollins. Coach John Small thought Jordan Ramey would be the new starter; however an injury in the team’s scrimmage forced junior Mason Hart into the lineup. Hart threw for a score in his first series against Lowndes, but the Vikings also snagged two interceptions off the 5’10 quarterback. Ramey, a 6’4 junior may not be able to return this year but could be highly sought after in next year’s quarterback crop.
-Buford replaced Alex Ross with baseball standout Sam Clay. Buford has racked up a pair of big wins with a sound running game and a dominating defense though Clay did fire two touchdowns in the win over Gainesville.
-Flowery Branch replaced Austin Brown (UAB) with Kanler Coker, a transfer from North Hall. Coker racked up a combined 260 yards and three scores in a huge win.
-Clarke Central replaced Martay Mattox with sophomore Cameron Johnson, who threw for four scores and 181 yards on 10-17 passing.
-Colquitt County replaced Tyler Brown with White County-transfer Cole Seagraves. The newest Packer fired a late touchdown to earn a win against Madison County (FL).
-Camden replaced Joel Ruiz with 2013 Georgia-commit Brice Ramsey…

The Battle of Five Forks-Trickum isn’t just limited to the gridiron. Brookwood and Parkview went at it earlier this week on the softball diamond but it was Brookwood coming out on top in a 10-1 decision. Brandi Jones struck out eleven in the win, which helped the Lady Broncos improve to 14-1 on the year, 2-0 in Region 8-5A play.
