Chasing championships again
War Eagle teams are now after spring
sports region titles and/or state qualifying
campaigns. At left, Justin Rhodes and
Derek Drew cover the middle of the
South infield against Central last week.

winning here vs. Jackson County, is after
another Area 8-AA/A title.

SOUTH from 5G
embarked upon by a new sport
at South this winter as Kris
Hunt took up the reins of the
first War Eagle swim team,
which did very well in terms of
participation (33 students) and
accomplishments (winning six
meets, placing high in a relay
meet and sending one athlete to
state).
Now the springtime promises
more great things.
The tennis teams, under coach
Bill Meyer, are poised to win
region and go to state for the
third straight time. While the
competition is tougher with
Cartersville and North in the
region (along with runner-up
Forsyth Central), coach Mike
Strickland’s baseball team has a
strong chance to do the same
for the second consecutive year.
Coach Jen Banda has the Lady
Eagle soccer team right in the
mix for a title shot, while coach
Karl Hanson has the boys’
counterparts moving in that
direction, too. Vaughan’s girls
golf team has everyone back
and shouldn’t miss a beat.
Coach Alan Enns’ boys golf
team had heavy graduation loss
es and, like the baseball team,
faces tough, new 7-AA opposi
tion from Cartersville. But they
still have at least a strong
chance for the top two.
The track and field teams are
also looking for success under
new coaches Allen Lane (also
the weightlifting coordinator)
and Gina Jensen.
“This is an exciting time for
us,” said Vaughan, summarizing
everything and looking forward
to the 110 students he has
signed up for spring football.
As South’s football team pre
pares for the 1999 campaign,
those in the program will look
forward to the development of a
new weight room.
“It will be housed in the new
gym (possibly where the auxil-
iary court is now) ... or perhaps
over by the old gym instead,”
said Vaughan. “We’ve just kifid
of outgrown everything.” ♦'
The space where the current
weight room is in the fieldhouse
will be used for athletic storage'.
Also, the wrestling team will be
moving back to the fieldhouse
because of other planned uses
for the old high school cafete
ria. But there will be some new
dressing rooms built in the
fieldhouse as well.
Vaughan is pleased with the
condition of his football field -
his teams have lost just one
game there - which also is used
for soccer in the spring.
“They’ve done a great job of
maintaining it; the soccer field
is in unbelievable shape,” he
said. “We minimize practice on
it ... and we overseeded it with
rye for the winter.”
Both the football/soccer and
baseball fields have new score
boards. The latter also has a
nice, new warning track running
around the edge of the outfield.
Redoing the rest of the outfield
is in the works for summer.
Also pleasing to the athletic
program has been the number of
student athletes getting scholar
ships. Recently, football players
Brian Fox and Scott Smith
signed NCAA Div. I football
scholarships, joining Mac
Smith, Wesley Ellis, Josh Byrd
and others in the post-HS ranks.
Some of the others in the last
year have included Ken Dixon
in golf, Ryan Campbell in soc
cer and Robby Woockman in
wrestling.
Finally, it will soon be known
whether South’s future will also
include a move up to Class
AAA for the fall 2000-spring
2002 time-frame, or that they
will stay in Class AA.
In any case, it’s hard to imag
ine that the success would not
continue.
