Friday Game Night

Check out video footage and commentary from a few of last week's area football Two-A-Days.

Hall County School System Superintendent Will Schofield announced Monday morning that a lawsuit filed against the school system by the Washington-based American Humanist Association over prayer in the county school system has been dismissed.

Fans of North Gwinnett will definitely need a roster to recognize the 2015 Bulldogs. They only have eight players on the roster with starting experience, prompting coach Bob Sphire to utter the dreaded R-word -- rebuilding.

Probably no team in northeast Georgia was hit harder by injury in 2014 than North Forsyth. The Raiders had four players suffer season-ending ACL tears and at one point played 28 underclassmen that were second-string or lower on the depth chart.

Mill Creek has been one of the most-feared offensive teams in the state the last few years. But after graduating half-a-dozen Division I prospects on offense from last year’s team, coach Shannon Jarvis and his staff are going to go a little retro in 2015.

Lumpkin County snapped a 12-year playoff drought last season under first-year head coach Ty Maxwell, a former Indians' graduate. Now, they are looking for more as they prepare for the 2015 season.

Lanier will go from the hunter to the hunted in 2015. And the Longhorns and coach Korey Mobbs seem just fine with that.

Playing in the rough-and-tumble and fast-paced Region 8-A, Lakeview Academy switched to a spread offense midway through last season. With a full off-season to work out the kinks, Lions’ 10th-year coach Matthew Gruhn is hoping the upgrade in tempo will also translate into renewed interest and wins for the program.

It not all about the numbers for Johnson coach Jason Rocquemore. But, with 72 projected players to dress for the Knights -- the most in nearly a decade -- improving on a pair of back-to-back 2-8 seasons may be a foregone conclusion as they prepare for the 2015 season.

Last year’s 12-1 Jefferson team graduated a number of talented leaders. So, will coach Ben Hall’s 2015 squad be ready to pick up where the last group left off?
