The CHS band had a brief scare while at the Chief Ladiga Marching Festival at Alabama’s Piedmont High School. In the middle of their performance, there was a brief episode of pandemonium in the stands when some audience members heard the sound of a school bus backfiring and caught a glimpse of a child’s toy gun.
According to Summerville man Dennis Prince, his ex-wife shoved his current wife while the ex-wife was picking up their children.
The Trion Bulldogs fell last night to the Darlington Tigers by only three points. Trion’s offense took the lead early in the game, but after halftime the Tigers scored a touchdown that won them the game 17-14. Trion was away for the game, and the Chattooga Indians were off this week.
This coming Friday, October 19th, the Bulldogs will be off; the Chattooga Indians, who are 5-2 overall, will be hosting the Armuchee Indians at Little Big Horn Stadium. The “other” Indians have had a rough season, having won only their first game of the season with Murray County, putting them 1-6 overall.
