Ethan Blome opened the Tigers’ scoring with an eight-yard touchdown run on a fourth and goal play with just under two minutes remaining in the opening quarter. Cooper Souders made the first of his seven PAT kicks to put the Tigers up 7-0. The scoring play was set up by a 30-yard punt return by Chris Roper to the Ramblers’ 18-yard line. On Adairsville’s next possession, Gough raced 40 yards on a keeper that set up a 24-yard touchdown run by Roper. The Tigers’ second scoring drive covered 68 yards in just three plays. Roper picked off a LaFayette pass to stop the Ramblers initial drive of the third quarter. The turnover was turned into more Adairsville points when Gough later connected with Chase Hilburn for a 16-yard score with 4:16 remaining in the period. In a continuously running clock fourth quarter, Kolt McCord sprinted to a 67-yard touchdown run that gave the Tigers a 49-0 lead and LaFayette’s Sam Hall closed out the scoring with an 8-yard touchdown run for the Ramblers. Jason Brown made the PAT kick with 4:30 remaining in the game. The loss dropped LaFayette to 1-5 on the season and 0-3 in Region 6-AAA.

  • Cartersville softball maintains region lead, Cass falls at Calhoun

    Cartersville softball closed out Dalton Thursday night on the road with a 10-run fifth inning as the Lady Canes won 14-3. A tight game through four innings, Cartersville exploded for eight hits and took advantage of a pair of Dalton errors in the top of the fifth inning. Kennedy Stevens (2.1 IP, 0R, 0H, 2BB, 3K) picked up the Cartersville pitching win in relief of starter Ava Perkins (2.2 IP, 3ER, 3H, 2BB, 2K). The Lady Canes totaled 13 hits.

  • Colonels control field position, cruise at Woodland

    Freshman quarterback Brodie McWhorter threw for one touchdown and ran for two more as Cass rolled to a 42-0 halftime lead and went on win at Woodland Thursday night, 49-12. McWhorter connected with Devin Henderson for a 7-yard touchdown pass late in the first quarter then had touchdown runs of 11-yards and one-yard in the second quarter as the Colonels took advantage of dominant field position throughout the first half. Those touchdowns — the third, fourth, and fifth of the night for Cass — were short drive of 25-yards, 32-yards, and 35-yards. Sacovie White started the Cass scoring barrage by returning the game’s opening kickoff 85-yards for a touchdown. The first of Saul Viella’s seven PAT kicks on the night gave the Colonels a 7-0 lead after just 14 seconds. Mac Nelson capped a five-play, 57-yard drive on the next Cass possession with a 27-yard touchdown run. That gave the Colonels a 14-0 lead with 7:15 remaining in the first quarter. The Colonels’ final touchdown of the first half was the first of two defensive scores by Kevin Henderson. His 41-yard scoop-and-score of a Woodland fumble with 3:55 remaining in the second quarter gave Cass a 42-0 lead at halftime. With a continuous clock in place for the second half, Woodland began a productive drive. It was stopped, however, when a Wildcats’ pass was picked off by Kevin Henderson and returned 80 yards to the final Cass score of the night. The pick-six put Cass up 49-0 with just over six minutes remaining in the third quarter. Woodland added two scores in the final period. Isaiah Livsey capped a six-play, 80-yard drive with a one yard touchdown run to make the score 49-6. Later on the final play of the game, Woodland quarterback Brelace Williams found Jaeden Smith streaking down the sideline for a 32-yard touchdown pass. The scoring play made the final, 49-12.

  • Canes lose triple overtime shootout with Calhoun, 50-48

    Top-ranked Cartersville committed five turnovers Thursday night at Weinman Stadium and dropped a 50-48 triple overtime decision to Region 7-5A rival Calhoun. Four of the Canes’ turnovers took place in the first half as Calhoun built a 28-7 lead. After Cartersville fumbled the opening kickoff and later gave the Yellow Jackets a short field with an interception, Calhoun quarterback Trey Townsend scored on a 1-yard keeper. The PAT kick by Carlos Lopez gave the visitors a 7-0 lead with 7:40 remaining in the first quarter. Malachi Jefferies broke loose with a 48-yard jaunt to tie the game moments later. Ryan Johnson’s PAT kick tied the score 7-7 with 3:52 left in the first period. Calhoun responded with an 85-yard drive to go up 14-7. Townsend capped the drive with a 1-yard sneak with 11:37 remaining in the second quarter. Cartersville fumbled on its next possession and the Yellow Jackets turned the third Canes’ miscue into more points. Calhoun running back Caden Williams finished off a 30-yard drive with a 1-yard plunge to put the Jackets up 21-7 with 9:52 left in the first half. The fourth Canes’ turnover of the half led to more Calhoun points. Makadan Griffin picked off a Cartersville pass to set up the score. Townsend connected with Hunter White for a 42-yard strike and Calhoun led 28-7 with 8:48 remaining in the second quarter. The Hurricanes drove 42 yards to cut the Calhoun lead to 28-14. Jeffries capped the drive with a 21-yard scamper with 5:07 remaining in the half. Cartersville’s had a third quarter scoring opportunity thwarted early in the period. After recovering a sack fumble at the Calhoun 13-yard line, another Cartersville pass was picked off in the end zone by the Yellow Jackets’ Cam Curtis. It was the fifth Canes’ turnover of the night. The Canes rally to send the game into overtime began in the opening seconds of the fourth quarter. A 51-yard drive included a long run by Jeffries to the red zone. He then finished off the drive with a 4-yard run with 11:15 left in regulation time making the score 28-21. Following possession exchanges and a Calhoun punt, the Canes started at the Calhoun 48-yard line. Cartersville quarterback Paul Gamble tossed a 28-yard touchdown pass to Collin Fletcher to knot the score at 28-28 with 5:06 remaining in the fourth quarter. With their next possession, the Canes moved the ball close enough to attempt a Johnson 47-yard field goal. It missed wide right, however, sending the game into overtime. Cartersville won the toss in overtime and chose to go on defense first. Calhoun scored on its first play. Williams’ 15-yard touchdown run put Calhoun up 35-28. Cartersville answered with a touchdown pass from Gamble to Ahmari Thomas on a 2nd-and-20 play. Johnson’s PAT sent the game to a second overtime tied 35-35. This time the Hurricanes went up 42-35 with a touchdown pass, but Calhoun responded with an 8-yard touchdown pass from Townsend to Emaree Winston to force a third overtime tied 42-42. The Cartersville touchdown toss was from Gamble to Ja’mauri Brice. Once the game reaches a third overtime, both teams must attempt a two-point conversion following any touchdown. Williams scored on a 3-yard run and ran in the two-point conversion to give Calhoun a 50-42 advantage. Cartersville scored on a Jeffries run to make the score 50-48, but a two-point conversion keeper by Gamble came up short. Calhoun improved to 4-2 on the season and 1-0 in Region 7-5A. The win also means the Yellow Jackets would take any tie-breaker head to head with Cartersville. The Hurricanes will need to win their remaining four region games and have Calhoun lose twice to overcome the Yellow Jackets in the Region 7-AAAAA race. Cartersville (5-1, 0-1) will look to bounce back next Friday at Cass in a 7:30 p.m. kickoff.
