TRUSSVILLE — Sam Sollie and Dylan Perry did about all they could do in Gadsden City football's attempt to pull off a surprise win over Hewitt-Trussville to open the AHSAA playoffs on Friday, Nov. 6. The Titans raced out to an 11-point lead in the second quarter, as Sollie threw for two scores and the Titan defense was able to force back-to-back interceptions to set up the scoring drives. The Titans took a 4-point lead into the half as thoughts of an upset started to go through the visitor sideline. The second half saw a shootout ensue, with Sollie finding Perry on three touchdowns, from 59, 54 and 29 yards out but ultimately Jack Floyd was able to lift the Huskies to a 38-35 win with a three-touchdown night of his own.
