“It’s like the Nike commercial — speed kills,” McMahan said. “They have speed, they got outside, and that’s what got us.”

Statesville held on until the absolute end to beat Lake Norman 14-10 in the North Piedmont Conference opener for both teams on Friday.
A stiff defensive stand at their own 1-yard line near the game’s two-minute warning produced the host Greyhounds their fourth forced turnover and a narrow victory.

Using its bread-and-butter ground game, Hickory distanced itself from Statesville in the second half Friday on its way to a 29-12 victory in the teams’ season opener.
It was far from a one-man show.
The Red Tornadoes, who led 15-12 at the half, did the damage without workhorse Darrien Burch, who fell just shy of the 2,000-yard mark a season ago.
Hickory rushed for 209 yards after the intermission. Six running backs besides Burch combined for 203 of that total.
