Senior-less Model girls team still expecting big season

Even after 21 seasons of leading the same program at the same high school, there’s still a learning curve, and there’s still a chance to encounter first-time situations. For Sally Echols, veteran leader of Model High Lady Blue Devil basketball team, the 2026-27 season provides an opportunity for both. It will be the first time she has a varsity roster without a senior. So while there’s a lot of girls looking to her to learn about the game at this level, Echols will be learning how to deal with so much youth and inexperience. However, it’s not like nobody wearing the light blue and white uniforms will know anything about winning. In 2025-26, Model had basically a sophomore-senior roster that went 18-10, finished runner-up in its region tournament and advanced to the second round of the state playoffs. Some of those making up the now-junior class were significant contributors in both the frontcourt and the backcourt. “A lot of tradition here,” said Echols, who led the program to 10 region championships and had 14 teams win at least one game in the state tournament. That includes the 2009 squad that played for the championship. Echols could possibly write her own

McEachern completes undefeated region schedule

KENNESAW — McEachern capped an undefeated region campaign Friday with a dominant 57-0 victory over Kennesaw Mountain, recording its first shutout of the season as the Indians prepared for the state playoffs. The Indians wasted little time taking control, scoring on its opening possession when quarterback Coby Pittman connected with Zyon Robinson on a 7-yard touchdown pass. Pittman added a 29-yard touchdown run later in the first quarter, giving the Indians a 14-0 lead. McEachern extended its advantage when kicker Wes Sheehan connected on a field goal, which was followed by a 66-yard touchdown pass from Pittman to Robinson. Pittman added a 3-yard touchdown run before halftime, sending the Indians into the break with a 29-0 lead. The Indians continued their offensive success in the third quarter. Pittman connected with Jarvaris Reed Jr. on a 32-yard touchdown pass, and James Smith added a 1-yard scoring run to extend the lead to 43-0. Jarvis Nance scored on a 4-yard run in the fourth quarter before backup quarterback Brentoni James threw a 56-yard touchdown pass to complete the scoring. While McEachern's offense found success throughout the night, its defense delivered an equally impressive performance, holding Kennesaw Mountain scoreless for all four quarters.

Lassiter putting final touch on best season since 2013

Lassiter can secure its best regular season in 13 years and a possible first-round state playoff home game when it goes on the road for its season finale against Rome in a battle of Region 6AAAAAA teams. With a win, Lassiter (7-2, 4-2) -- which is headed to the state playoffs for the first time since 2016 -- would achieve an eighth regular-season for the first time since 2012 and put itself in position to secure a home game for the first round. It would be the first postseason game at Frank Fillmann Stadium for the Trojans since 2013. “I think more than anything, we’re trying not to just sit here and focus on outcomes, but just trying to get better every single day,” Lassiter coach Sean Thom said. “I think our kids aren’t dumb – that’s the one thing about being at a place like Lassiter, they’re aware of kind of what they’ve accomplished. But I think it shows a growing trend of the hard work that they’ve put in. This senior class is going to be highly thanked, because they’ve really helped put this thing in place.
