Allatoona is a brand new high school. Of course, with a brand new school comes a brand new athletic program. In its first year, the football team probably has the toughest road toward finding wins. Against South Paulding, they were soundly defeated 51-0. In their second game they once again came up short, losing 55-21 against Chattooga. With only four games total on the schedule, the Buccaneers will have a small window of opportunity with regard to learning how to win. The important thing for head coach Gary Varner and his team is to gain experience and build a program that the new school can be proud of. … In other sports news around Allatoona, the softball team won its first region game against Osborne last week. The Buccaneers then went on to defeat Valdosta on Friday in a surprise 3-0 win. … The volleyball team has had its work cut out for them. To date, they have posted only one win. … Though victories as a whole have been hard to come by, so far for the Buccaneer program, just participating in real high-school athletics has to feel good for the entire school.
