CENTRAL — Facing a short week and one of the toughest teams in the state, Pickens entered last week’s contest against the Daniel Lions hoping to change their fortunes in the midst of a tough region slate.
However, early struggles on special teams doomed the Blue Flame, as they fell 45-0 against the Lions.
Due to fears about the weather forecast on Friday, the game was moved to Thursday evening. Despite the short week, Pickens coach Chad Smith didn’t use it as an excuse

Pendleton defense smothers Liberty

PENDLETON — The Liberty Red Devils knew going to Pendleton to face the region-leading Bulldogs would be a 
tough task.
That, coupled with a hectic schedule during the week, which included no school on Monday and Friday’s scheduled contest being moved to Thursday night because of impending heavy rains, left the Devils on the wrong side of a lopsided 35-0 loss.
“Getting off our routine really hurt us,” Liberty head coach Kyle Stewart said after the game. “On Monday, we were out of school. So we did a morning practice instead of our normal afternoon one, just to give them the rest of their day open. Then of course moving the game up and all the adjustments that went into that we didn’t

PIEDMONT — In a battle for playoff positioning and postseason berths, Woodmont rallied with two fourth-quarter 
touchdowns Friday night to hold off Easley, 21-14.
Woodmont (6-3, 4-2) took advantage of the short field on scoring drives of 45, 38 and 22 yards to vanquish the Green Wave’s playoff hopes.
“Our defense did a great job all night against them,” Easley coach Caleb King said. “We knew we would have trouble blocking the Navy commit (Cameron Donald), who is a great player. It makes it tough. We came up just short against a team that a lot of people thought was going to win this league. We had them on the ropes and just couldn’t throw

Lions just one victory away from region title
CENTRAL — Following three straight close contests in region play, the Daniel Lions entered last week’s matchup with county rival Pickens looking to make a statement.
The Lions did that and more in a 45-0 win, making plays in all three facets of the game as
they stifled the Pickens ground game and held the Blue Flame under 100 yards on the night.
“Any time you take on a region foe and come out with this kind of victory it feels great,” Daniel coach Jeff Fruster said after the game, which was played on Thursday night after being rescheduled due to the threat of heavy rain.
Special teams were a big factor in the Lions’ victory, as they scored on first-quarter punt return touchdowns of 50 and 70 yards by Josiah Benson and Hack Hamilton, while also
