Last week was about just making it to kickoff after months of doubt due to COVID-19. This week, it was all about wild finishes and big-time scores for several northeast Georgia's area teams.
Just about the only thing that looked familiar about the NFL’s long-awaited return Thursday night was the sight of Patrick Mahomes effortlessly leading the Kansas City Chiefs up and down the field.
Freddie Freeman homered twice, Dansby Swanson hit a go-ahead shot in the eighth inning and the Atlanta Braves rallied from a 5-0 deficit to beat the Washington Nationals 7-6.
It might have been a slow start, but it was a strong finish as Buford scored six runs in the sixth inning to blow past Lanier 10-4 Thursday at the Buford Softball Complex.
Olivia Duncan earned her fourth win of the season in the circle, and Mackenzie Pickens drove in the go-ahead run to lead the Buford to a 4-2 win over Wesleyan on the road Wednesday.
