Last season: 7-5
Summer progress: Junior T.J. Freeman beat out two other players for the starting quarterback spot on the team. The challenge for Freeman is to keep alive the Warhawks run of five-year state playoff appearances. Much of the teams offense is similar to the past with a few new wrinkles from new coach Joe Dupree, a former quarterback at Georgia and Georgia Southern.
