Friday Football Preview

Cherokee will continue its season while Creekview kicks off its year against an hated foe.

The 2011 football season is finally here. There has been a spattering of games throughout the area, but tonight is the night where most of the football teams kick off.

Here's what's on the slate for schools in the Canton-Sixes Patch:

Milton (0-0) at Cherokee (1-0) – The Warriors are coming off of a 35-14 road win at North Forsyth last week. Senior running back Andrew Blalock rushed for three touchdowns in the first half and Cherokee cruised the rest of the way. Milton was 3-7 last season and hasn’t played in 2011 thus far. Kickoff is at 7:30 p.m.

Sequoyah (0-0) at Creekview (0-0) – What a way to start off the 2011 season for the Grizzlies, a home game against archrival Sequoyah. Last year, Creekview won its first two games, but only one of its final eight. The Grizzlies are looking for a similar start, but more sustainability through the season. Kickoff is at 7:30 p.m.
