Marianna got 172 yds passing and 2 TD's from QB Brandon Gardner and RB Phillip Sylvester added 140 rushing yards and a 85 yd kick off return for a TD as the Bulldogs beat Holmes County 40-20 in Bonifay Friday night. HCHS took a 14-8 lead in the second quarter but Gardner threw a TD pass to WR J. B. Johnson and ran one in himself and the Dogs took the lead for good. HCHS made it close in the 3rd quarter on a TD pass from Justin Miller to Jomar Concepcion but two 4th quarter TD's put it away as Marianna improves to 1-0 on the season. In the 4th quarter a text book drive starting at the Bulldog 12 yard line ending with a 15 yard TD pass from Gardner to WR Eric Booth ended all hopes for the Blue Devils. Marianna will travel to Port St. Joe Friday to take on the defending 2b State Champions.

Graceville's All State and 1b Player of the Year JJ Laster picked up right where he left off Thursday night with a 3 TD performance in helping Graceville defeat both Sneads (14-0) and Marianna (17-6). Graceville's QB Lee Stevenson and WR Montrez Bullock also were impressive. Marianna unveiled it's wide open passing attack but 4 turnovers hampered its effectiveness. Sneads played better in the third quarter holding the Bulldogs to a 0-0 tie. Football is back and I am tickled.
