Region VIII-AAA, Golson and Week 6 Picks

In the morning, there will be a story in the paper about the start of region play, specifically Region VIII-AAA.

That league -- which consists of Myrtle Beach, St. James, Socastee, North Myrtle Beach, Georgetown and Wilson -- appears to be the Seahawks' to lose (as you'll see by comments by St. James coach Billy Hurston in tomorrow's story).

Tuesday news and notes -- Injury updates

St. James coach Billy Hurston finally feels his team might be in a place to start getting in the win column.

Hurston, whose team is 0-5 heading into Friday's Region VIII-AAA opener against Georgetown, said Tuesday that quarterback Chase Smith is healthy enough to not only start for the Sharks, but contribute like he's used to.

MB-Conway rivalry (Cont.), and Week 5 picks

This morning's paper included a story on the Myrtle Beach-Conway (or Conway-Myrtle Beach, if you prefer) rivalry.

What it didn't include -- primarily because of space issues -- was some funny smack talk between the coaches, Conway's Chuck Jordan and Myrtle Beach's Mickey Wilson.

Friday night pick 'em: Week 5

This is the big rivalry week, with probably the two best area matchups tonight in Myrtle Beach-Conway and Hemingway-Carvers Bay.

Monday news and notes

A lot of people are still talking about Conway's huge win over Marlboro County from Friday evening. No one would have been completely shocked by a close victory.

But for the Tigers to dominate the game like they did caught a lot of people off guard.
