The Fayette County High boys soccer team opened up the

1999 season with a preseason jamboree at Woodward Academy

on Friday night and a game against Collins Hill at home on

Monday afternoon. The Tigers beat Douglas County 2-1 and

defeated Cross Keys 2-0 on Friday. In their final game of the jamboree,

Fayette County tied Woodward Academy 0-0. Michael Franklin,

Brent Turner, Todd Edwards and Craig White all scored in the

jamboree and an honorable mention goes out to sophomore Ryan Terry,

for giving it his all before being taken down and suffering a broken

leg. The injury puts him out for the season.

Senior Brent Turner had both goals in the Tigers 2-0 win

against Collins Hill on Monday. David Dirring and Derek Walton

each had an assist. The Tigers dominated Collins Hill, out

shooting them 13-3. J.B. Wood and Jonathan Williams each played

a half in the net and were ever really tested. Fayette County

will travel to East Coweta High School on Friday to face the

Indians at 7 p.m. The JV team will play at 5:30 p.m. After

Friday night's game they won't be in the area again until Mar.4,5 and

6 when they participate in the Cougar Classic Soccer Tournament

in Newnan.
