Football starts

South Effingham opens its season 7:30 p.m. Friday at home against New Hampstead, a team known for its high-powered passing game. The Phoenix lost their record-setting quarterback and leading receiver from last year but return with a twin-brother combo in the air attack. The Mustangs, coming off a sluggish scrimmage against Screven County, will try to tighten their defense and avoid a shootout.
