North side’s Marques Ivory attempts to shake loose from some Habersham defenders
during the Eagle’s AAAA quarterfinal win Friday in McConnell-Talbert Stadium.

that feels good. Last year I
didn’t get to play. This year
it’s my opportunity to play
in the Dome as a starter.”
Quarterback Marques
Ivory completed eight pass
es for 90 yards and two
touchdowns. Both were
on shuffle passes inside to
junior receiver Nick Bass.
Bass caught five shuffles
in all and bulled his wav
through the crowd of line
men and linebackers for 52
yards.
Ivory did a little running
of his own after faking some
handoffs to Green in the
shotgun. He had 11 official
totes for 56 yards.
It was the Northside
defense that really brought
some intensity to the sta
dium against Habersham
Central’s basic I formation
attack.
Not only did Jordan,
senior linebacker, shoot
past everybody unblocked
for a sack on Raider quar
terback Bo Hatchett, but
other Eagles got their hands
on Hatchett as well.
Anthony Taylor had a
solo sack and shared one
with Ben Hicks.
Habersham Central had
just three first downs in
the first half and four in
the second. In the first half,
two first downs came on
delayed reverses to star
wideout Tavarres King.
In the second quar
ter, when King gained 16
yards to the Eagle 45, the
Raiders tried a draw with
tailback Matt Roberts,
but Isaac Wilson stopped
him for a one-yard gain.
On third down, Habersham
did a counter run that Eric
Fields was all over for two
lost yards.

The Raiders went for it
on fourth down only to see
Mario Armstrong deflect
the pass.
King’s other reverse run
in the second quarter came
after an Eagle fumble at
midfield. King gained just
12 yards on the run as
Charles McKenzie tackled
him on the 39. Taylor and
Hicks sacked Hatchett to
set up 4th-and-15.
“They threw a lot of
things at us,” said defensive
coordinator Kevin Kinsler.
“They tried to get physical
up inside, then they spread
it out. I thought our kids did
a good job getting lined up
and competing with them.
We made a couple of mis
takes on the reverse, but
I’m proud of the way our
guys recognized the things
they were trying to do.
“When Habersham did
make a big play, we came
back and shut them down
... got the ball back for our
offense.”
In the third quarter, King
made a leaping catch by the
sidelines on 3rd-and-12 for
first down on the Eagle 48.
Habersham, two plays later,
tried a different receiver for
the reverse, but he fum
bled back the ball back to
Northside.
The Raiders had one last
serious drive into the fourth
quarter lasting 13 plays.
Once again they tried a dif
ferent man on the reverse
on third down, but Fields
had him down behind the
line of scrimmage.
Northside had a 14-0
halftime lead on touchdown
drives on its first two pos
sessions.
The first was all running
plays, 11 total, with a 4th
and-1 conversion by Green
out of the power I set.
Jordan, one of the power
fullbacks, leaned forward
on a third down carry from
the 2 and scored at 4:53 of
the opening period.
Freshman Devon Pike
converted his first PAT
attempt.
Green added a 21-yard
reception in the flat to his
offensive numbers at the
end of the first quarter. To
start the second, Ivory hit
Jacobi Rodriguez on 3rd
and-7 for 14 yards to the
16.
Three plays later Bass
caught a shuffle for a 5-yard
touchdown. With Pike’s
PAT, it was 14-0.
Habersham Central had
two punts - 63 and 48 yards
- that pinned Northside
inside its own 5 late in the
first half.
Bass’ best pickup on the
shuffle went for 22 yards
to set Northside up on the
Raider 30 in the third quar
ter. Using a counter run
for the first time, Green
notched his first touch
down, a 15-yarder, at 5:50.
Habersham blocked the
PAT try to keep it a 20-0
game.
But Northside capitalized
on the fumbled reverse play
with another counter run
for Green to the Raider 40.
Ivory, scrambling his large
frame and pushing one
defender down with ease,
advanced the football 19
yards to the 16.
Ivory and Bass hooked up
for the second time on the
shuffle for a touchdown,
this one for 13 yards, at
1:08 of the third. Pike got
this PAT kick through (27-
0).
With 54 seconds left to
play, Green finished off a
12-play, 59-yard drive with
a 4th-and-goal 1-yard score.
Mark Hartmann got this
PAT try and made it good.

of the second half. The Bears’
Eric O’Neal broke loose for
his first run of more than 10
yards in the game, a 20-yard
touchdown burst. His score
pulled the Bears to within
seven, 21-14.
O’Neal’s touchdown
was set up by a 29-yard run
by D.J. Dodson. Dodson
rushed for 60 yards in the
first half and added the 29 on
his first - and what turned
out to be his only - carry of
the second half.
The ball continued to
bounce Houston County’s
way. On the subsequent kick
off, the Hornets fumbled the
ball and the Bears recovered
on Roswell’s 32.
Then the game turned.
The Bears fumbled the
exchange; the Hornets got
the ball back. With Houston
County’s defense so pass
conscious, Roswell’s running
game began to take off.
The Hornets needed only
six plays to march 68 yards.
Taliaferro set things up when
he took off for 25 yards.

requirements under Georgia's SERP.
The proposed DWSRF project involves replacement of all manuals read meters currently in place in order
to provide efficient and accurate meter reading and customer billing. Improvements are necessary as
existing infrastructures are dated and inefficient, and as the billing software will no longer be supported

environment, either individually, cumulatively over time, or in conjunction with other federal, state,
local, or private actions;

significant adverse effect on: cultural resource areas, such as archeological and historic sites;
habitats of endangered or threatened species; or environmental Important natural resource areas,

wetlands, important farmlands or aquifer recharge areas; and
•The action is cost-effective and is not expected to cause significant public controversy.
This determination shall become effective after thirty (30) days following its distribution by EPD and
can be revoked if significant adverse information is made available. The documentation to support this
decision is on file with the Georgia Environmental Protection Division and is available for public scrutiny
upon request. A copy of proposed project documentation is also available for review at the City Hall in

ritory - called the passing

fare too well.
Thompson was plagued
by drops. Bears receivers
dropped four passes in the
game. Two in one possession

excellent field possession
at its own 45 to begin its
