In Cherokee Bluff’s brief six-year-plus history, there have been two constants: Tommy Jones and North Hall.

With just two races left before the start of the NASCAR Cup playoffs, a 36th place finish at Daytona last week was not what Chase Elliott had in mind in building momentum for a run at a Cup series championship.

East Hall remained unbeaten in Region 8-3A with a tough 2-1 win over Jefferson on Monday at East Hall Park.

Chestatee took a pair of big Area 6-3A matches on Monday on the road in volleyball action at the Dawson County gym.

Atlanta United fell 2-0 to Los Angeles Galaxy Saturday night at Dignity Health Sports Park.

A day after being dealt the toughest — and oddest — penalty of his 20-year NASCAR career, Denny Hamlin was still trying to cope with what it might do to his season and his chances of finally winning a Cup Series championship.

There is no nickname for Buford coach Bryant Appling yet, but there needs to be.

Week 1 saw some stunning outcomes while also being marred by rain and lightning. Week 2, however, is not as marquee-packed as the opening weekend.

Gainesville and North Forsyth got Week 2 under way on Thursday, with the Red Elephants getting their first-ever out-of-state road win in program history and the Raiders letting a half time lead slip away.

Julius Columbus said they wanted to make history. He and the rest of what is already turning into a nasty Gainesville defense made sure nothing got in their way.
