HURRICANE IKE: Athens football game at Bullard has earlier kickoff
The Athens Hornets' football game on the road against the Bullard Panthers has been moved up to a 6:30 p.m. kickoff. The game was originally scheduled for 7:30 p.m. School officials moved up the kickoff as a result of what is becoming a growing list of weekend events altered due to the approach of Hurricane Ike.
