The Yellow Jackets are capable of putting up a lot of points in a hurry.
That was one of the takeaways from Greer’s 42-14 blowout win over Westside last Friday night.
If there were still any questions surrounding Byrnes following its three-win season in 2016, the Rebels answered them last Friday night against Myrtle Beach.
Byrnes exacted revenge over the Seahawks during the team’s home opener, scoring early and often during the 51-0 victory.
The Blue Ridge football team was held scoreless during its first game of the season, falling 42-0 to Belton-Honea Path last Friday night at home.
The Riverside football team did something head coach Phil Smith isn’t accustomed to last Friday, as the Warriors climbed out of a two-score hole to steal a win on the road in Week 0 against Travelers Rest.
The Warriors picked up a nice win on the road in Week 0, but there is little time to celebrate with rival Eastside coming to town on Friday.
Both teams are 1-0, and Riverside is looking to exact some revenge after a loss in 2016.
Greer High Accepting Hall of Fame nods
The Greer High Booster Club is accepting nominations for induction into the Athletic Hall of Fame.
The Eastside football team made short work of Woodmont during its home opener last Friday night.
The Eagles cruised to a 41-7 win, thanks to five touchdowns from quarterback Jordan Morgan.
Eastside got on the board early as Morgan completed the first of his touchdown passes to Payton Mangrum for a 14-yard score.
Greer head coach Will Young cringes a little when he watches tape of last year’s 45-7 loss to Byrnes.

Greer’s 2017 football team has come full circle in three weeks to kick off the season against 5-A powerhouse Westside on Friday night in Anderson.
The Blue Ridge Tigers will open their 2017 campaign at home this Friday against a team that went 11-2 last fall.
Belton-Honea Path hasn’t given up a point during the preseason, which is cause for concern for Blue Ridge head coach Shane Clark.
