Sunday, August 19, 2018 - 18:10
CARROLLTON - Carrollton showcased some of its arsenal both on offense and defense in a competitive scrimmage QJ">on Friday night in front of the hometown fans.
Hawks head football coach Nick Flowers said his squad showed they are in good condition in the scrimmage entering the start of the regular season next week. Carrollton opens its 2018 football season at home at 7 p.m. on Friday, Aug. 24, against Triopia/Meredosia-Chambersburg/Virginia.
“I really liked the amount of defensive speed we had flying to the ball,” Flowers said of one of the scrimmage highlights. “We had four or five guys flying to the ball. That is what we have to do; we have to get the offensive guys the ball.” Flowers said he is excited to show his exceptional offensive weapons, starting with left-handed quarterback Hayden Flowers and power back Byron Holmes, receiver Nathan Walker and much more.
“We didn’t see the initial exhaustion we see a lot of times in the scrimmage,” Coach Flowers said.
