Model grounds Eagles in homecoming shutout
Football coaches always preach the importance of playing well in all three phases of the game. The Model High Blue Devils did that Friday and then some, bludgeoning the visiting Mount Zion Eagles of Carroll County 42-0 on Homecoming night at Model’s Woodard-Tuggle Stadium. The Blue Devils forced four Eagle turnovers on defense, dominated the ground game on offense, and returned a blocked field goal over 80 yards for a score on special teams. All of this followed Model’s first loss of the 2026 season, and so it improved to 5-1 overall and 2-1 in Region 6-AA. Mount Zion has lost three straight to fall to 2-4 overall and 0-3 in the region. “It was big for our kids to recover in the way that they did (after last week’s loss to Bremen) … we talked about what would be our response, and I thought it was pretty good, especially early,” said Model head coach Jeff Hunnicutt. “We talked about our character a lot this week, and at the end of the day, your character is going to carry you a lot further in life than any shutout or any win. I was happy for our kids … I enjoyed

Kiwanis Youth Charity Golf Tournament for 2026
On Sept. 16, the Kiwanis Club of Marietta Golden K and The Kiwanis Club of Lost Mountain held their Annual Youth Charity Golf Tournament at the BridgeMill Athletic Club In Canton. For the past 31 years, the two Kiwanis clubs have hosted this tournament, which has become to be known as the “Tee It Up for the Kids” tournament. Since 1995, the clubs have raised over $1,000,000 for kids. The 2026 tournament was very successful. Over 120 companies and individuals donated from $125 to $3,500 for a net proceeds of over $34,000 that will be distributed to youth charities and Kiwanis supported programs by the two clubs as well as the Kiwanis Foundation. The slogan for the tournament has been aptly named “Tee it up for the Kids” because many Kiwanis supported organizations receive proceeds as a result of the tournament. Combined membership of the clubs is approximately 130 members. Over 10,000 hours of community service were volunteered last year. The focus of Kiwanis is to support and develop international, national and local youth programs. The clubs actively sponsor Circle K clubs at the college level, Key Clubs at the high school level, Builders clubs at the Middle school level,

Bremen field positions doom Dragons
As the big Region 6-2A game in the Lindale community moved into the second quarter, Bremen’s starting field positions began to get worse and worse ... from the point of view of the Pepperell High Dragons. What was a one-score game got quickly out of hand, and the Bremen Blue Devils went on to cruise to a 42-7 victory to remain undefeated at 6-0 in 2026. Pepperell entered the game even in the region standings at 2-0 but the result slipped the Dragons to 2-1, even now with the Model Blue Devils for third place. In the first quarter, Pepperell caught its fair share of breaks, beginning with Bremen’s opening series on offense. Blue Devil back Canyon Carter streaked upfield into Dragon territory at the 36. The visitors attempted a 50-plus-yard field goal but missed. Pepperell punted away its first possession deep into Bremen ground and then came up with an interception on the Blue Devil 26. The visiting defense, however, was able to push back on the Dragons, who eventually lost the football on downs. Two big plays later, including a Carter run to the Dragon 30, set up a touchdown pass from Eli Brock to Carter for the

Woodstock aims to keep Rome winless
Last Friday might, Woodstock played its closest game of the year since the season opener. It didn’t go the Wolverines’ way, though, as they fell 13-10 to Cherokee County and Region 6AAAAAA rival Creekview. Despite the result, first-year coach Justin Pearce saw the effort he was looking for to start the second half of 2026. ‘We have to play at one play at a time, and that’s what our guys did,” Pearce said. “We told them to get up and make them earn it, and defensively, we did that. We kind of limited some of the big plays that we have been giving up and we made them continue to drive. I couldn’t ask for better effort, right? Those dudes played as hard as they possibly could and gave us a chance.” It was the best defensive performance of the year for Woodstock (1-5, 0-3), which is the No. 48-ranked team in the GHSA’s latest PSR report. The Wolverines have a chance to improve that ranking this Friday night as they square off with a struggling Rome (0-6, 0-3) team that holds the No. 47 spot. Like Woodstock, Rome has a much younger roster than in years past, along with

Big first quarter leads Dalton past Allatoona
ACWORTH -- Allatoona never recovered from Dalton’s blazing first quarter start, as the Catamounts cruised to an easy 49-7 victory over the Buccaneers at Cobb EMC/Buccaneer Stadium on Friday night. Dalton (5-1, 1-1 7AAAAA) set the tone for the game as Kamdon London returned the opening kickoff 99 yards for a touchdown to give the Catamounts a quick 7-0 lead. “It’s obviously a tough thing to overcome to when momentum hits you that hard and that fast,” Allatoona coach Paul Carter said. “We have I think guys in the right places to make the plays, they just got to make the plays and at times we didn’t do that.” Dalton was just getting started. They scored three more times in the first quarter, jumping out to a 28-0 first quarter lead. Receiving the ball at the Buccaneers’ 46-yard line on their opening possession after the defense forced a three-and-out, the Catamounts quickly took advantage of the field position. Runs of 27 and 18 by Bronx Stallion and DeMari Mason respectively brought Dalton to the 1. Quarterback Caine Woods punched it in on the next play to increase the Catamounts’ lead to 14-0. On the following two possessions, Dalton increased their
