Wildcats earn big win in region opener against Marion Co.

Berry’s Dalton Greene (7) takes the handoff from quarterback Zack Hollingsworth (1) during the Wildcats’ 46-12 region victory over Marion County on Sept. 4. Greene led Berry’s ground attack with 122 yards on 16 carries and three touchdowns, while Hollingsworth completed 13 of 15 passes for 281 yards and three touchdowns.

Berry picked up a big early-season victory Friday night as the Wildcats defeated Marion County 46-12 to open region play on a winning note. For a young Berry squad still finding its footing early in the season, the victory was an encouraging response after opening the year with a loss to Hale County. The Wildcats combined an efficient passing attack with a strong performance on the ground and pulled away from the Red Raiders in the second half. “This is a really big win for us,” Berry head coach Danny Raines said. “Our kids played a great second half. So glad to start region play with a win.” Berry’s offense was led by sophomore quarterback Zack Hollingsworth, who turned in an impressive performance through the air. Hollingsworth completed 13 of 15 passes for 281 yards and three touchdowns.
