Buford is loaded; Mary Persons going with the backup

The recent commitment of Vadal Alexander to LSU now gives Buford another bit of bragging rights in Class AA as the team currently boasts two members of the LSU 2012 recruiting class. Reid Ferguson is headed to Baton Rogue while Dillon Lee will go suit up for SEC West rival Alabama. Kurt Freitag has Alabama in his final three while CJ Moore has pledged to UVA and Paris Head is headed to Vanderbilt. Quarterback Sam Clay will play baseball at Georgia Tech and linebacker/fullback Nathan Staub has offers from UNC, Virginia and Cal according to Scout. ...

When Peach County and Mary Persons square off this Friday, the battle of the backup quarterbacks will take place as Mary Persons will go with Jordan Banks and perhaps Macey Zeller, if Zeller is back from the upper-body injury that forced him to leave last week’s game against Rutland. Taylor Williams is out for the Bulldogs with a collarbone injury. Peach County meanwhile has been going with Kentel Kendrick after Greg Williams suffered a knee-injury earlier this year. ...

Greg Chambers lost his season debut Friday when Fannin County fell 35-21 to Rabun County. Chambers is Fannin County’s AD and is serving as interim head coach while the search for a replacement for Clark Drennan is conducted. Fannin County let Drennan go last week according to the AJC/GHSF Daily. ...

The Pope Greyhound volleyball team has been tough to beat this season, recording a 38-2 record into the first round of the state playoffs, but in the Area 7-4A playoffs, forget about it. The Lady Greyhounds have won six straight area crowns and seven of the last eight. Now Pope will seek its third straight Class 4A state title.
