Local Sports: Tuesday, August 23

The South Fulton Red Devils and Greenfield Yellow Jackets were unable to complete their opening football game last Friday night due to the game being stopped for a medical event. The game was declared a no contest.

Both teams were emotionally involved because Blake Rodehaver, who went down on the sidelines, played for South Fulton last year and is now a Yellow Jacket.

South Fulton Coach Eric Knott said his younger players handled the pressure of the close game well ….

Greenfield Coach Russ Brown was really proud of his team as well…

South Fulton will play Ballard at home this Friday night. Kickoff is at 7:00.

Greenfield will play Dresden at home Friday. Kickoff is at 7:00 with updates on MIX 101.3.
