Walhalla rushing game keeps Flame winless in region

PICKENS — On a homecoming night that featured an engagement and a crowning, all Pickens High School fans were missing was a win, as the Walhalla Razorbacks’ rushing attack led them to a 35-7 victory over the Blue Flame.
“We weren’t able to start or finish drives tonight,” Pickens head coach Chad Smith said after the game. “Give Walhalla all the credit in the world. They’re a good football team. I don’t think we executed like we needed to, and that falls on me. We struggled to contain (Walhalla quarterback Corey) Loggins, we were overpursuing a lot, and that just comes down to discipline.”
Pickens saw some success throwing the ball, with quarterback Drew Campbell delivering his first touchdown pass of the year and Pickens’ only offensive score of the night to running back Zionde Clark.
“They stacked the box, and we were able to throw it some,” Smith said. “We just did not execute in the passing game. When someone stacks the box like that, you have to be able to throw them out of it.”
Prior to kickoff, Pickens linebackers coach J.J. Stone walked out to midfield

IVA — Riding a four-game losing streak and hoping to get back on track after a collapse at Seneca to open region play the previous week, the Liberty Red Devils got just what they were looking for as they took a 26-21 win in a wild back-and-forth game on the road at Crescent on Friday night.
Red Devils head coach Kyle Stewart had high praise for the fight in his team after a frustrating start to the season — and Friday night’s game.
“I’m just proud of the competition level in the second half,” Stewart said. “Adversity hit

Offensive struggles doom Easley against TL Hanna

news@thepccourier.com
ANDERSON — T.L. Hanna took advantage of a short field in three second-quarter scoring drives to break open a close game on the way to beating Easley 37-10 on Friday night.
Things started out hot for the Yellow Jackets on their homecoming night. Easley seemed to relax a bit as Malachi Calhoun’s game-opening kick was caught right at the goal line, but Ja’nike Truesdale took the ball and raced untouched for the 99-yard kickoff return to give Hanna a 7-0 lead just 13 seconds into the game.
Easley answered with a nice drive. Starting at the 20, as the Green

Crosby, Hamilton cap Lions’ last-second comeback

PIEDMONT — After weeks of everything going right for the Daniel Lions, things started to go very wrong at the end of Friday’s game against the Wren Hurricanes.
The Lions allowed Wren to come back from a 20-point fourth-quarter deficit to take a 28-27 lead with just 1:13 remaining, and with star quarterback Tyler Venables out with a leg injury, the Lions turned to backup quarterback Jackson Crosby.
Crosby didn’t disappoint, taking the Lions 70 yards in just more than a minute as they pulled off a 34-28 win with a touchdown in the game’s final second.
“This was awesome,” Daniel coach Jeff Fruster said. “There was great effort on both sides. We have plenty to work on, but when you talk about complete
