North Springs dominates Lakeside for win number two

After losing 41-0 to Chamblee in Week 2, the football team redeemed itself by beating Lakeside-DeKalb 33-6 last Friday. Before and after the game, the coaching staff discussed the importance of the team buying into the systems that they are trying to establish on offense and defense. The team seems to be responding, because there were big plays on both sides of the ball against Lakeside. Sophomore tailback K. Hudson had over 100 yards rushing. Despite the Vikings being flagged for pass interference on the play, wide receiver Ricky Lang still made a one-handed highlight-reel catch for a touchdown. On defense, Derrick Bowdy returned an interception for a 65-yard touchdown. The Spartans head to Marist for a matchup on Friday. … Last week, the softball team lost to Forsyth Central 10-2, beat Berkmar 13-0, and lost to Dunwoody 4-3 in a tough eight-inning game. Pitchers Erica Burgess and Kali Gray combined for a two-hit shutout against Berkmar. Megan Light hit her third home run of the season against Forsyth Central. Liz Stowell and Peyton Glass played strong defense throughout the week.
