Haralson County senior Marc Harris was a preseason all-state pick in Class 2A as a defensive back. That came after a season in which he intercepted five passes, returning three for touchdowns, and forced five fumbles while averaging more than 10 tackles per game on an 8-3 team.
Harris is doing those things again. He had 10 tackles and an interception last week in a 49-7 victory over Model.
What perhaps no one saw coming was that Haralson County’s star free safety would be leading the state in rushing four weeks into the season. Harris, a two-way starter, added 222 yards to his total last week, giving him 718 on the season.
Haralson County is 4-0 and ranked No. 10 in Class 2A this week, marking the first time the Rebels have held a ranking since 1976. It’s the latest they’ve been ranked in a season since 1970.
Harris is one of two new leaders atop GHSF Daily’s Yardage Leaderboard.
Tayshaun Shipp, a senior at Worth County, is the receiving leader. He has 565 yards for the season, at least 100 yards and at least one touchdown in all four of his games.
David Renard, a senior at Flowery Branch, continues to lead in passing despite a recent bye week. He’s thrown for 1,034 yard in just three games.
