Greer got off to a rousing start Friday night with a convincing 45-0 victory over the Travelers Rest Devildogs. Backup QB Sinclair Cannon returned the opening kickoff 75 yards for a score to get things started. That would prove to be the only points needed, as the defense, despite giving up over 200 yards to T.R.'s Jay Cox, created 5 turnovers, and blocked a field goal in pitching a shutout. Sergio Gilliam, who blocked the field goal, and Shun Foster, each had an interception. On their first offensive series, Josh Williams hit Sergio with a 16 yard touchdown pass in the back corner of the end zone, then on the next possesion, Josh ran it in from 27 yards out on a dazzling run that started right, then left through the tackles. He then was hit, regained his balance with a hand to the turf, then ran through a would be Devildog tackler for the score. Then, after getting the ball back, Williams hit Alan Mills in the right flat, and #6 did the rest, streaking down the right sideline to put the Jackets up 28-0. Late in the half, Durrell Burnette got a 10 yard run to make it 35-0 at the half. Greer added a 4th quarter touchdown on a nice series directed by Cannon, who ran it in from 3 yards out after making a long run to get the Jackets into scoring postion. late in the game, Collier Smith, perfect on the evening with 6 PAT's, nailed a 38 yard field goal to make the final score 45-0.
