Creekview Grizzlies Shut Out Cambridge Bears For Big Homecoming Win

The Bears fall 41-0 to the Grizzlies as they continue their first season struggles.

The Grizzly Den, packed as always for Homecoming, saw the Creekview defense shut out Cambridge, while the offense used both the run and an aerial assault to defeat the Bears 41-0. A Grizzly fumble recovery at about the 20 yard line led to the first points on the board with an explosive Isaiah Rodgers (27) touchdown in the first quarter.  Creekview's Dylan Harrison (20) quickly followed up with an interception to bring it back inside the 10 yard line of Cambridge. On 3rd and long, QB Hayden Hall (6) threw a strike to WR Connor Dulmage (5) to put the Grizzlies on the board again.  Kicker Connor Frasier (36) put through his second of the night to make it 14-0. RB Chandler Wold (18) was next with a spectacular 60+ yard run for a TD to make it …

Mr. Simpson, I know some people who would say that I am an idiot. I know more who would not. But how do we measure who is an idiot and who is not? We could look at common measurements of academic performance and see if there are inherent idiocy indicators. Did you know that students who are involved in school music programs in high school score significantly higher on standardized tests than …   more ›

Cambridge, Milton and Alpharetta @ Home in High School Football

The Bears look for their first win, while the Raiders look to turn their season around.

Will the Cambridge Bears record their first win tonight against Osborne, another team without a win this season? Will Roswell or Milton win in this old-time rivalry? Can Alpharetta prevail against West Forsyth? The Cambridge Athletic Association seems to think it could be a big night for the Bears, as they face a Marietta team that lost three regular season games and both pre-season scrimmages. The Bears got their first points on the board, scoring 16 in a loss to undefeated South Forsyth last week. Obsorne lost two weeks ago to Campbell, 27-6, and had a bye week last Friday. @ Cambridge High Roswell Hornets vs. Milton Eagles Milton comes off a 52-24 win over Centennial last week, but the team hasn't been consistent. A 14-9 loss to Johns …

Cambridge Bears 'Boys' Turning Into Men on the Field

The inaugural game in Milton didn't turn out in the Bears' favor, as the 'rookie' team lost, 48-0.

The Cambridge Bears, most of whom had never played in a varsity football game before, had their first game and first loss on Friday night in the inaugural game at the new school, falling 48-0 to Riverwood. Head Coach Craig Bennett refused to make excuses for the results, but he wouldn't lay any blame on his players, either. "This is not an excuse by any means, we got maybe two or three kids that's played on a Friday night. And we got a lot of of growing up to do. That's what we've got to work on and get better. That's all we can do, and all we can ask of our kids," Bennett said. "We've got to do a better job as coaches. And that starts with me, I'll take responsibiilty for the product we put on the field. We knew we were young, but we also…

Cambridge High Replaces Head Football Coach

Milton High Athletic Director Craig Bennett moves across town to take charge of the Bears after Christian Hunnicutt steps down.

Cambridge High hasn't even started its first football season and it already has its second head coach. Craig Bennett, formerly Milton High athletic director, was named as the new Cambridge Bears' head coach. He replaces Christian Hunnicutt, whom Cambridge Principal Ed Spurka said decided with his family to pursue other interests. Any other details of his departure weren't available because it would be a personnel matter. Hunnicutt had taken the Bears through their first spring training. Bennett told the players assembled at Hopewell Middle School this morning, June 1, that they have done hard work this spring and at their old high schools. "You've done things right, you've done things wrong. And so we're going to take all the things you've…
