Live from Martin Stadium: It’s Northside vs. Lowndes
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Just pulled into Martin Stadium. I’ll start blogging around kickoff and let you know what’shappening. If you have any questions, I’ll get to it if I can. …
It’s 6 p.m., and it’s still 85 degrees. Had to stop by the Wal-Mart and get some cargo shorts for $7 because of this South Georgia heat. … Just had a conversation with Joe Wilson, the coach of the 1980 Lowndes state championship team. What a wealth of history he is. Wilson played on Valdosta’s state champion in 1951 and was a long-time assistant under Wright Bazemore. He wanted the Valdosta job when Bazemore retired but was passed over. He wound up at Lowndes and won the Plowboys’ first title in ‘80. Says he still likes Valdosta - ‘except when they’re playing Lowndes.’
I’ll be back later.
