STORIES From page jB They have a great coach ing staff over there and a lot of things going positive for them ... It’s just little things that can turn things.” Warner Robins snapped what was a four-game los ing streak dating back to the state semifinals 0f2006 when the Demons handled Beach High at home. Going into that game, Warner Robins had just three touchdowns in three games (one offen sive, one defensive and one special teams), but was able to double that total in the first half. “It does a lot for the psyche of our kids if nothing else,” said Way about the signifi | Thursday Evening 8:00 I 8:30 [ 9:00 | 9:30 [ 10:00 j 10:30 j 11:00 | 11:30 j 12:00 12:30 WPSAfASC Ugly Betty Grey's Anatomy Big Shots Local jNightline |Jimmy Kimmel Live • jiflSfli Survivor: China CSI: Crime Sen ___ Without a Trace Local jLate Show-Letlerman jtate Late IfejjfjNßC My Name Is Earl The Office ~~ ER [Local [Tonight Show jLate MSBIMTOC You Smarter?

Houston County, with just as brutal an opening schedule, has only one win in four games, that victory com ing against Windsor Forest at home. Both the Demons and Bears have fallen to Northside High, a defend ing state championship club, and Houston was shut out last weekend to a perennial power from Parkview High. “We’re both playing a lot of inexperienced guys, bot tom line,” said Way in com paring what’s happening to y uaj». *JS Xjf |b ** B^|||| f |*^ i | | | t jp 'BHB *fr ■ j fc j| Hi J Warner Robins players run onto the field at the start of Saturday night’s game against Beach. gp |y| ***.. r /_ \ ' * fel ggM ENI/Gary Harmon Warner Robins’ new homecoming queen Anna Treadway is congratulated by her father Phil Treadway and mother, Jan. both schools. “We definitely both had senior laden teams last year. If you play good teams using inexperienced people, mistakes can cost you a game.” “A lot of times you go through some growing pains,” said Collins. “Like we are right now. We’re strug gling a little bit. Our kids are playing hard and getting bet ter every week. We just need a breakout game.” This would be the time for the Bears to break out, but the Demons have the same goal in mind, and that’s to come out of Friday’s game 1- 0 in the state’s toughest foot ball region. Last year’s game was one of epic proportions when Warner Robins won 10-9 even though Houston scored a touchdown on the September 27,2007 SPORTS last play of regulation. It was only a missed extra point that prevented overtime. Way said that kind of result was indicative of the close ness of the Houston County- Warner Robins rivalry over the past five years (which included one game ending in a tied score). He said it shouldn’t be any different this year as he expects both teams to get after each other, and whoever can make the big play should come out on top. “They’ve started out throw ing the ball well,” said Way about the Bears. “They have a great athlete in (Craig) Pressley. He catches the ball well, runs good routes and is a threat after the catch. They have a quick fullback, the running back’s getting | Friday Evening wSSHiighsiUiighs 20.20 [2O-20 Local Nightline [Jimmy Kimmel Live WMA2/CBS Ghost Whisperer Moonlight ;NUMB3RS Locals Late Show-Letterman jLate Late WMOT ; NBc| beai or No Deal las Vegas [local "[Tonight Show |Late WtiiSi>bx !

They’ve given up some big plays, but they’ve given themselves a chance to win.” “It’s not hopeless,” said Collins. “We have players making plays on defense. We’ve played well offensively in the second half. We had a drive in the second half against Berkmar and we had a drive in the second half against Parkview. Our kids have worked hard and are in pretty good shape. They don’t ever give up or quit. “We’re doing the things you want a football team to do, get strong in the second half and make plays in the fourth quarter. We just need to find a way to get it turned ENI/Gary Harmon ENI/Gary Harmon on in the beginning, make some drives early.” As for the biggest challenge Houston County faces on the football field Friday, Collins said it has more to do with themselves than anything Warner Robins might throw at them. “We have to keep working on us,” he said. “If we take care of what we can take care of, it should be a good ball game. “We’re not inexperienced anymore. We’ve had four tough football games. We’ve shown we can do it. We just need to do it for four quar ters. We wanted to get better each week and I think we’ve done it. We wanted to come in (to the Warner Robins game) ready to compete in our region.” September 28,2007 7B
