Devils gun for Upstate title
When his team takes on Great Falls tonight in the Upper State title game, Ride Spring-Monetta coach Mark Rodgers doesn’t want to play football as much as he’d like to play keep-away.
That tactic worked to perfection when the two teams met last year. The Trojans scored on the game’s opening drive and ate up the entire first quarter clock in the process. At game’s end they had a huge edge in time of possession and a narrow 12-8 win.

Gamecocks prevail in annual tourney
The University of South Carolina golfers, as has been the norm, celebrated a 19-15 win Thursday in the sixth annual Big Thursday Scholarship golf tournament at the Lancaster Golf Club.
The news won’t be as good a week from Saturday in the annual USC-Clemson football game, if the norm holds true.
In the past in the tournament, when the Gamecock golfers win, the Tigers’ football team prevails.
A year ago in the tournament, Clemson snapped a four-year losing skid to the USC golfers with a 22-18 win in the 18-home match.

Jackets Lower State champs
Buford High School's cheer competition season has gone from rebuilding to rewarding.
"These girls just keep surprising me," said BHS cheer coach Julie Thompson.

Devils in Upstate title play
GREAT FALLS - Great Falls High football coach Kenneth Schofield said before his team's second- round playoff game against McBee, that a win would get his team three more practices.
"Nothing else is really assured," Schofield said.
Not only did GFHS's 24-0 win Friday earn the team those three practices, by virtue of top-seeded Whitmire's loss to Ridge Spring-Monetta, it also got the Red Devils a Class A Division II Upper State title game at home Friday.
"This feels great," said linebacker Isaiah Lynn. "Ridge Spring has to come here."

Devils bid for rematch repeat
The McBee High School football program took decades to record its first-ever playoff victory. Great Falls coach Kenneth Schofield hopes to make the Panthers wait at least a year for postseason win number two. Last Friday’s 14-12 win over Christ Church in the first round of the Division II-A playoffs was a high watermark for the school, and the players know it, according to coach Terry Sowell. “When I first got here four years ago, I didn’t know the history,” Sowell said. “But we’ve got faculty members who’ve been here for a long time.

2nd half run keys Foxes by Jackets
MARION – The Buford Yellow Jackets’ return to the Pee Dee wasn’t as good this time around. Two weeks ago, Buford rallied for a 30-20 comeback win over host Mullins in a non-region clash. BHS was back in the Pee Dee on Friday when Marion foiled the Jackets’ 2007 football hopes with a 36-22 win in the Class AA Lower State football playoffs.
