#1 Byrnes Survives First Half Scare From North Gwinnett (GA)

By Jeff Fisher
The High School Football Huddle


At halftime of the Progressive Football Challenge, it looked like North Gwinnett was going to prove that the Byrnes Rebels were not worthy of the #1 ranking that bestowed upon the team by USA Today. However, like all good teams with proven leadership, the Rebels put up four second half touchdowns that brought the team back from a 14-9 halftime deficit to defeat last year's Georgia Class AAAAA runner-up 36-21.

The High School Football Huddle




The 2008 high school football season for Greer High School in Greenville, South Carolina may be over before it starts.

The school's football program has been placed on probation by the South Carolina High School League for participating in an illegal practice. That means that the team's players are ineligible to play this season, but they are able to practice until appeals are made. An appeal will be made by the school on Monday.

Head coach Will Smith and his team are scheduled to open the season August 29th at home against Woodruff.
