Rams defeat Brookwood and Berkmar, move closer to region title

“We’re getting everybody’s best game.” That was what head football coach Mickey Conn said following the team’s huge 10-7 win over region foe Brookwood on Oct. 10. The win gave Grayson victories over its top two opponents for the Region 8-AAAAA title. Running back Ean Pemberton became the first rusher to gain 100 yards against the Bronco defense this season, as he recorded 139 yards on 26 carries. Quarterback Tyler Horne had the lone Grayson touchdown and kicker Austin Clark’s third-quarter field goal turned out to be the winning margin. The Rams avoided a letdown against Berkmar last Friday with a 28-7 win. The team welcomes Meadowcreek this Friday. … The softball team fought hard but ultimately came up short in a bid for the state sectionals. The team watched Dacula lock up a bid to the sectionals, falling 2-0 to the Falcons. Hayley Downs and Ariel LaRocca had the only two hits for the Lady Rams, who, as a team, struck out 14 times in the loss. The team then rallied from a 10-2 deficit against South Gwinnett to tie the game before falling 11-10.
