David Postell might not literally dunk on defenders as the ‘posterizing’ title might suggest, but I would argue that the senior did the football equivalent last week to his rival South Paulding.

Cartersville is a consensus top 5 team in 5A and it still seems like not enough talking heads are bringing up the Hurricanes.
