Georgia Olympics A Public Preview

May 13, 2015

Last season Hancock Central sprinted their way to the A Public Track title, but some programs have improved getting their basketball and football athletes to give Track a tryout.

Terrell County competed in several MCSD meets (Columbus) against larger schools and it may make the difference this weekend. The Green Wave's top athletes are Blake Mathis, Keontae Terry, Michael Cooper and Jamaal Thompson may very well sweep the distance events.

There are several schools in contention for Team Podium spots including and not limited to: Montgomery County, Turner County, Georgia Military, Hancock Central, Twiggs County.
