Georgia Notebook: Fritts returns to Western Georgia

Sid Fritts returns to western Georgia this week for the first time since he was on the sidelines as the head coach at Rome.

Fritts, the Elbert County, coach will lead his No. 7 Blue Devils (9-1) some 170 miles from Elberton this week when they travel to Lindale, Ga. to play Pepperell. The Dragons (7-3) fell in the Region 7-AA championship game last week to Calhoun, their second loss of the season to the Yellow Jackets.

Fritts and Rome never played Pepperell during his five-year tenure, but he said the Dragons are a physical bunch with big linemen.

“They are similar in philosophy to us, I just think we’re a little more explosive,” Fritts said.
