As far as baseball season-openers go, North Hall coach Trent Mongero could not have been more pleased after his Trojans held on for a 7-6 win over Buford Wednesday at North Hall Field.
No one on the current North Hall roster was even born the last time the Trojans won a region title in basketball. What they didn’t know didn’t hurt them Tuesday night.
The Gainesville High girls basketball team dominated early and late en route to their third straight Region 7-AAA title on Tuesday night at Flowery Branch.
North Hall boys basketball coach Benjie Wood wouldn’t directly say he has been waiting for his Trojans to prove they are ready to join the ranks of East Hall and Gainesville as an elite program.
Jaymee Carnes didn't look her usual self for a half, but once she kicked her game into gear in the second half there was no question that the Gainesville girls basketball team was headed back to the Region 7-AAA championship game.
Flowery Branch girls basketball coach Hazel Hall vividly remembers sitting at the Lady Falcons home gym in December watching some other team win a Lanierland title on their court. It did not sit well with her at the time.
