Six Players Get All 15 Right
For Kaitlyn Harvey, The Monticello News Football Contest is a family affair, and this week was no different. She along with two other Harveys correctly guessed the winners of all 15 games listed in the contest, and Kaitlyn, a student at the University of Georgia in Athens hit the tie-breaker on the head.
Piedmont defeated Riverside Military 34-6 for 40 total points scored in the game.
For her effort, Miss Harvey received a $25 prize from Betty Jean Jordan at Jordan Engineering, sponsor of the week. Since she was at school, her mother, and competitor, Tammy Harvey, picked up her prize. The other Harvey to get 15 right was William Harvey. Others who got 15 right included Lyric Arnold, John Goolsby, and Brian Holland.
In addition, a slew of players got 12 or more right to have their names placed on the grand prize honor roll, which is four premium tickets to the Chick-fil-A/peach Bowl in Atlanta on New Year’s day next year.
