Jackets outrushed in loss to Catamounts

The football team suffered a disappointing loss against Lassiter in Week 1 and was looking to get its first win of the season as the Jackets took on Dalton last Friday. The Catamounts, however, broke a scoreless tie in the second quarter, scoring 21 points, and the Yellow Jackets could not recover, as they lost to Dalton 34-14. One of the key stats of the game was the rushing yards for Spayberry quarterback Forrest Holt, who gained just 33 yards on 21 carries. In fact, the Yellow Jackets only rushed for 88 yards total, a disappointing number when compared to the 206 yards that Dalton totaled on the ground. The Yellow Jackets also failed to move the chains, as they managed only nine first downs in the loss. The team hopes to get their first win of the season against Northwest Whitefield on Friday. … The volleyball team swept a tri-match last week defeating Wheeler and Campbell. The team will look to win another tri-match this Thursday when they take on Woodstock and Cherokee. … The softball team lost to Ridgeland last week by the score of 7-1. The team will host North Paulding on Thursday.
