No. 1 Buford football pulls away from Collins Hill
BUFORD — A 19-point second quarter led to a 17th consecutive win for Buford football. After a slow first quarter on Homecoming, No. 1 Buford used three second-quarter touchdowns to pull away from Collins Hill and eventually win 43-0 on a windy night at Philip Beard Stadium. “It was a slow start,” Buford head coach Bryant Appling said. “It shouldn’t have been that slow, but it was sloppy. There’s a lot of stuff we’ve got to work on, got to handle and get better at. They know what they’ve got to do, they just haven’t had a chance to do it the way they need to do it yet. We’ve just got to put it all together. We showed flashes where it’s great.” Buford (7-0, 3-0 Region 8-AAAAAAA) did not score in the first quarter, but a forced turnover late in the frame did set up the first score. The Wolves got a short field after a forced fumble, and defensive tackle Jalen Brewster checked into the game as part of a goal line package. He powered in from two yards out under a minute into the second quarter, scoring his first touchdown with the program. “(Brewster) grew up playing

South Gwinnett scores 44 unanswered points to race past Archer
SNELLVILLE — South Gwinnett head football coach Bryan Lamar stood on the sidelines anxiously waiting for his team to wake up. After a forgettable start to the Comets’ Region 4-AAAAAAA opener on Friday night, Lamar’s team locked in — and then some. South Gwinnett finished with 44 unanswered points en route to a 52-21 rout of Archer, marking the Comets’ first four-game winning streak since a 4-0 start to the 2023 season. They improve to 5-2 overall and 1-0 in the region, while Archer falls to 4-4 and 0-2. Even following the impressive second-half showing, Lamar knows his team has to start better playing in one of the state’s best regions. “We weren’t focused to start the game,” said Lamar, whose team allowed 21 points in the game’s first six minutes and trailed by 13. “Archer has good players and an excellent coaching staff, and our kids just came out here like they were just going to roll over people, and that’s not the way it works. We’re not that kind of team. We’re not talented enough to be able to just show up out here and just beat people. “If we’re not focused, we’re going to struggle. It took

Dacula escapes with Saturday afternoon football win at Central Gwinnett
LAWRENCEVILLE — After letting a 21-8 fourth quarter lead dissipate into a 22-21 deficit at Central Gwinnett, Dacula football needed an answer as soon as possible. Dacula got the ball back with three minutes remaining and moved the ball to the fringes of field goal range as time ticked away. Then quarterback R.J. Perry connected with wide receiver Damon Flint on a tunnel screen and Flint took it the distance to give the Falcons a dramatic lead with 55 seconds remaining. Junior Brayden Page forced a fumble on the second play of the ensuing Central drive, Justin Campbell scooped it up and ran 18 yards for the defensive touchdown and Dacula escaped with a wild 35-22 victory at Tally Johnson Field. “We’ve got a talented group of guys,” Dacula head coach Reggie Stancil said. “We just didn’t play very well, and credit to them, they played their butts off. They had a good game plan and they shut us down for three quarters. We have good players, we just didn’t execute tonight, but they kind of focused in and got it done.” Dacula (4-3, 2-1 Region 8-AAAAAAA) led 7-0 at halftime off another Perry-to-Flint connection, the highlight of a first

Dorsey brothers enjoying big seasons with Shiloh football
There’s not much that separates identical twins. For Shiloh football’s Tyrese and Tyrell Dorsey, all that divides the two is the line of scrimmage. The brothers mirror each other as quiet, but physical, senior leaders of the Generals. Tyrese is the offensive captain, a 1,200-yard rusher with 15 touchdowns through seven games, while Tyrell is one of the top tacklers (53 tackles, 10 for losses) on a Shiloh defense that’s allowed just over 13 points per outing. That’s where the differences end. “They’re both really similar,” Shiloh head coach Tino Ierulli said. “They both love the game of football, they both love being physical but they’re quiet kids. They’re tough, hard-nosed kids that everyone on the team listens to and respects.” The twins, who grew up outside of Pittsburgh before moving to Gwinnett County in middle school, are nearly indistinguishable in their personalities and their passion for Shiloh football. “I’ve really enjoyed everything about Shiloh,” Tyrese said. “The coaching staff, the moments, the memories, the wins, struggling through workouts, I’ve enjoyed everything.” The Dorseys were on Ierulli’s radar early, noticing a pair of hard-hitting ninth graders who earned spots on the varsity. As sophomores, Tyrese rushed for his first touchdown

Beau Bennett, Hebron Christian give interim head coach Daniel Mejia win after turbulent week
DACULA — Hebron Christian’s Beau Bennett rushed 30 times for 277 yards and scored five touchdowns as the Lions pulled away for a 38-21 victory over Lumpkin County in Region 8-AAA football Friday night. The Homecoming victory capped a tumultuous week for Hebron, which dismissed first-year head coach Quentin Davie mid-week and replaced him with defensive coordinator Daniel Mejia. The Lions, state champions the past two seasons, improve to 3-5 overall and 2-2 in the region — as well as 1-0 under Mejia. “We came to work and all this adversity doesn’t matter,” Mejia said after earning his first win. “We are more than capable of winning from here on out.” Hebron Christian received the opening kickoff and on the first play, Dylan Hudson took the handoff on the end around for 40 yards down to the Indians’ 27. Four running plays later, Bennett carried the ball in from five yards out, leaping over the pile at the goal line. The Lions had a quick 7-0 advantage. Lumpkin County’s drive bogged down after five plays and it was forced to punt back to Hebron. Behind the running of Bennett and a completed pass from Jordan Greene to Hudson, which was
