Page 2B The Braselton News Wednesday, October 24, 2007 Football continued from page IB on the outcome,” he said. “Our kids looked them square in the eye, and didn’t back down the entire game. They played just as hard in the last play as they did the first play. Our kids responded very well to the challenge of playing a team like Norcross. I’m proud of that. “Our kids showed us they can play at a high level. We played at our level, and made Norcross match it. We didn’t try to play against Norcross, we just played very well, and made them play their best game to beat us.” Up Around The Bend With Norcross behind them, the Hawks now look to concentrate on Friday night’s matchup with Peachtree Ridge. The Lions are 5-2 overall, and 4-1 in the region. They’re coming off of a loss to North Gwinnett, 31-19. In their previous meeting, Peachtree Ridge defeated the Hawks 21-13 last year. Jarvis is quick to point out that the chal lenge his team faces Friday night is just as big as the one they faced last week. “It’s a carbon copy of what we just saw. They’ve got great play ers, they’re well coached, and it’s another great challenge. I was pleased with Friday night, and I’m anxious to see if our kids can do it another week in a row. It’ll take our best effort to beat a good Peachtree Ridge team. “Our kids showed us Friday that they’re capable of playing well and playing with the elite teams in the state. That’s what we’re play ing against, the elite teams, not just in our region, but also in the state. That’s the level we want this pro gram to be at, and we’re going to have to beat one of these teams to gamer that kind of recognition.” Game time in Suwanee is set for 7:30 p.m. Forecasts call for pos sible showers, with temperatures in the lower 60s to upper 50s at game time.

Bikefest held at Atlanta Dragway BY TIM GLOVER Hundreds of motorcycle enthusi asts and even more spectators came to Atlanta Dragway Saturday for the First Annual October Bikefest, a benefit event for the American Cancer Society. All proceeds were donated to the American Cancer Society. The event featured the Quarter Mile Challenge, non-stop test and tune runs on the track and a large bike show, inflatable slides, a rock climbing wall, many different ven dor booths, and live music. One of the main attractions was the Bike Show. All brands of bikes were welcomed, and a total of nine classes were contested for this event. Two husband and wife teams did well in the show. Tracy Addison of Toccoa brought his Suzuki M109 Boulevard Cruiser to the event and won first place in Big Twin Cruiser. His wife, Sharon, also enjoyed a first place in the Woman Rider class with her bike. “I finally won something this year,” exclaimed a happy Jimmy Heisler, an Atlanta Dragway regu lar who lives in Woodstock. Heisler won the 750cc and under class with his 2000 ZX6R Kawasaki, and his wife Eeman took second with her Kawasaki in the Woman Rider Class. Another Atlanta Dragway regular, Paul Cavanaugh, picked up two second place awards, one in Sport Bike, and the other in Mild Custom. Two former Atlanta Dragway racers enjoyed wins in their class, Richard Lewis (Vintage & Classic) and Bert Chapman (Sportster). First place winners received a plaque and a Year One gift certificate, and second place winners were awarded a plaque. Other first place award winners were Daniel Taylor (llOOcc & over), Tim Farmer (Mild Custom), Mike Jones (Radical Custom), and Hector Santiago (Sport Bike). Many of the show bikes did much more than look pretty. On track, many of the show bikes showed just how quick they could go. Quarter mile elapsed times for all partici pants varied mostly from the nine second range to the mid teens. The “Big Easy” husband and wife team of Jimmy and Eeman Heisler did well in the show as well as on the track. Eeman may not have had the faster bike, but when they ran against each other, she smoked Jimmy at the starting line with a very good .012-second reac tion time. His was a less spectacu lar .199-second time. Their elapsed times were 10.51 seconds at 125.13 mph for Jimmy and 12.05 at 118.52 mph for Eeman. Lady Hawks ready for tournament play The Mill Creek Lady Hawks volleyball area season ended with a runner-up status last week, as they were defeated by the Norcross Blue Devils for the area 7-AAAAA championship. Norcross won in sets of 25-23, 13-25, 16-25, 24-26. Despite the loss, Mill Creek rounded out their season with a 4-1 area record, and 22-20 overall. The Lady Hawks now move forward to state tourna ment play, which is set to begin Saturday. Mill Creek will start their tournament out with a matchup against Houston County in Roswell, at 4:30 Saturday after noon. Pure golf... It’s within your reach.
