Item #1 - High School Football's region schedule is winding down
Football’s second season (the region schedule) is wrapping up. With 4 of the 6 regions that I follow having their #1 state playoff seeds decided, the games of interest this weekend include the following:
Aiken (1-3) at North Augusta (3-1)
North Augusta can clinch at least a top 2 seed with a win. After that it’s up to the result of Brookland-Cayce (3-1) and Airport’s (3-1) game to decide whether the Yellow Jackets will enter the playoffs as a 1 seed or a 2 seed from class 4A’s region 5. In the case of a North Augusta win, a BC win would make the Jackets a 2 seed, while an Airport win would give North Augusta the crown.
Greenbrier (1-2) at Lakeside (2-1)
Grovetown (3-0) at Heritage (1-2)
Alcovy (3-0) at Evans (2-1)
One could get busy determining the possible combinations of finishes possible in class 6A, region 3 depending on the results in these final two weeks. Although anything can still happen, Grovetown sits in the pole position with 3 wins and no losses.
Burke County (2-1) at Thomson (1-1)
Burke County can secure class 4A, region 3's second seed with a win in this rivalry game, which Rob Drew will cover as AugBball and the CSRA All Star Bowl's Game of the Night.
Item #2 - Basketball season is here!
Augusta University will tip off Friday at 6:00 P.M. in Columbia at Colonial Life Arena against South Carolina in an exhibition game.Item #3 - The 706ers drop some news
And the Augusta 706ers recently announced two events that will keep the buzz going about our new professional team and about area basketball in general.
First, the 706ers will hold an open scrimmage at 4:00 P.M. this Sunday to give everybody an early look at the roster and to raise money for the family of Melquan Robinson, the 12 year old who died tragically last week playing in a youth football game:
And on November 10, before the 706ers take the court at the James Brown Arena for the first time, many of the area's best high school girls and boys teams and players will give the fans more bang for their buck when they play in a great slate of preseason scrimmage games at the venue:
Item #4 - Murphey Middle School's Brigham brothers lead the Mavericks to the championship game

Slowly but surely AugBball is increasing its coverage of local sports. Tuesday's Richmond County Middle School semifinal matchup between Murphey and Pine Hill was the latest example. Full highlights from Murphey's 44-0 win will be shared soon.
