Rome pulls away from Pope in the second half

(Editor’s note: According to AJC.com, Douglas County High made no further appeals to the Georgia High School Association’s ruling on two ineligible players, meaning the Tigers must forfeit three football wins in September, GHSA executive director Tim Scott confirmed Thursday. That includes a win over Rome High School Sept. 25, and so the Wolves’ season record is now 3-6). As Pope took the field for their final regular-season game at Greyhound Stadium, 47 seniors were hoping to make the occasion a special one. Ultimately, the Greyhounds weren’t able to overcome an injury to starting quarterback Hudson Marinko, falling 35-7 to Rome in their penultimate Region 6-6A game. Two touchdowns for Rome in the first three plays from scrimmage put Pope on the back foot early, and after Marinko’s injury nearing the end of the first half, the Wolves’ defense dominated down the stretch, as Pope had just 10 rushing yards for the game. Heading into the night, both teams likely needed a win to keep their playoff hopes alive under the new PSR system. Rome (No. 42) sat six spots higher than Pope (No. 48), but the Wolves were the ones that would bolster their resume. Rome had success running

Cave Spring's historic Fairview School building gets handicap ramp

Cave Spring’s historic Fairview School, one of the oldest remaining structures in Georgia built for the education of Black students, recently received a new front and side porch, which features an accessible ramp. The addition on the 1920s building was made possible by a grant from the Rome Area Heritage Foundation. The RAHF is dedicated to preserving history through historic sites in Rome and Floyd County, so the foundation’s partnership with the Fairview School was a no-brainer for everyone involved in the project. “When we say it is an honor to partner with an organization that is so dedicated to historic preservation as our friends at Fairview — we truly mean that it is an honor,” said Don Walls, co-president of the RAHF board of directors. “Fairview has been a great steward of history and monetary resources, and we look forward with anticipation as they continue to live out a mission of restoration and adaptive reuse.” The grant allowed the nonprofit Fairview-E.S. Brown Heritage Corporation to purchase lumber for the porch, which was constructed by inmates from the Floyd County Prison. This porch was another addition in a decades-long mission to restore the beloved building, which holds a century of

Rome pulls away from Pope in the second half

MARIETTA -- As Pope took the field for their final regular-season game at Matt Hobby Field, 47 seniors were hoping to make the occasion a special one. Ultimately, the Greyhounds were unable to overcome an injury to starting quarterback Hudson Marinko, falling 35-7 to Rome in their penultimate Region 6AAAAAA game. “We missed a wheel route (for a touchdown), we missed some opportunities to score,” Pope coach Sean O’Sullivan said. “We didn’t take care of opportunities early on, and (Rome’s) been playing hard all year.” Two touchdowns for Rome (2-7, 2-4) in the first three plays from scrimmage put Pope on the back foot early, and after Marinko’s injury near the end of the first half, the Wolves’ defense dominated down the stretch, as Pope (3-6, 2-4) had just 10 rushing yards for the game. “We didn’t capitalize on some stuff (in the run game),” O’Sullivan said. “Nobody’s been able to run the ball inside on them this year.” Heading into the night, both teams likely needed a win to keep their playoff hopes alive under the new postseason ranking system.

The 10 scariest defenses in high school football this season

While offenses always get the hype for any successful team, the old adage of "defense wins championships" has never been truer than it is today. As good as an offense may be, no team is championship-caliber without a great defense on the other side. This is especially true at the high school level as several teams have gone on championship runs solely because of how dominant their defense was. That appears to be the case this year as several teams around the nation boasts defensive units allowing less than 10 points a game.

KSU students send pumpkins flying in annual engineering competition

MARIETTA — Pumpkins were flying all over the place at a Kennesaw State University field Thursday afternoon. It was the site of the university’s 16th annual “Pumpkin Launch,” a fall tradition where students from KSU’s Southern Polytechnic College of Engineering and Engineering Technology form teams, build trebuchets and compete to see who can send a 10-pound pumpkin flying the farthest. The longest launch was 218 feet, by the team "Evil Vegetable Throwers." A trebuchet is a special type of catapult that uses a heavy counterweight and gravity to launch a projectile. Since its inception 16 years ago as a small, student-led game at the former Southern Polytechnic State University, the “Pumpkin Launch” has become a fun, festive way for students to apply the engineering skills they learn in class. “Completely what the engineering college is about here is applying what they’ve learned, and this is a great opportunity here with the pumpkin launch,” KSU engineering instructor Paul Scarpinato told the Journal. “It's a great opportunity with the competition teams. That's exactly what they're doing, just applying what they learn in class. It's hands-on application.” The event was previously a required class project for the school’s dynamics class, but this year
