It's evolved into a very exciting season on the gridiron for the three Marshall County schools which have a combined 14-3 record on the year as Forrest (6-0, 3-0), Marshall County (5-1, 2-0) and Cornersville (3-2, 2-0) all hold its region standings' top spot. The undefeated and fifth-ranked Rockets stayed unblemished via a 43-7 pasting over visiting Cascade last week on Homecoming and now face its toughest test of the season when they host third-ranked Watertown (6-0, 3-0) at Murrey E. Holton Memorial Field in Chapel Hill Friday night.

The Marshall County Tigerettes (5-7-2) have experienced its share of inconsistency during the 2016 soccer season, not having won more than two straight matches, but also not losing two games in a row. Tuesday night at Lewisburg offered more of the same for the Tigerettes by following a 3-1 win over Columbia's Middle Tennessee Crusaders last week with a hard fought 2-0 loss to Middle Tennessee Christian School (8-5-3).

The Marshall County Tigers faltered at the Region 6A/AA Golf Tournament at Montgomery Bell Golf Course in Burns on Monday as MCHS finished in fifth place with a combined team score of 350. Christ Presbyterian Academy won their third consecutive region title and qualified for the state tournament, shooting a 294, a whopping 23 strokes clear of Nolensville (317).
