Northgate

In what could be considered the biggest upset of the region 4-AAAAA boys basketball tournament, number one seed McIntosh High School lost to the Vikings of Northgate High School in a low scoring game 40-33.

Northgate defeated Starr's Mill last week and hosts McIntosh in a game that will likely give the winner the third seed from the sub-region. Starr's Mill hosts Whitewater and the Panthers would like to try an end a tough season on a good note.

The state volleyball semifinals take place Halloween night and five local teams are hoping for a treat. A win on Wednesday will send them to the finals in their respective classifications.

Momentum can be one of the more important factors in a football game. The Fayette County Tigers had a wealth of momentum in the second half, scoring 30 straight points, but it wasn't enough for them to hang on when the momentum switched back to Troup.

The volleyball dominance from area teams continues in the state playoffs.

If you had watched or listened to the Braves playoff loss to the Cardinals tonight, you probably already had enough highs and lows to last you the weekend. There were plenty more in the high school football games tonight though.

McIntosh: Bye this week

McIntosh won their homecoming game last week 23-18. Andrew Johnson rushed for two touchdowns and threw one to Trey Walters, while Mike Licitra chipped in a field goal in the win. Head coach Lee Belknap gave the entire defense credit for stepping up and making plays.
