The Final Word
Incredible 1st two weeks of the schedule. Shout out to the Rockmart staff for not being scared to step up and play top tier, larger opponents.
Calpreps has the Jackets going 9-1, I don’t think anyone would be surprised if they finish 10-0 or 8-2. The biggest surprise will be if they don’t win their 8th consecutive Region Title.
