On any given night, the names of numerous former high school stars from the Floyd County area can be found in box scores — often with impressive numbers — on college web sites across the country.

The list includes players of all sizes, ranging from giants like Tony Woods (the 6-foot-11 post player who now plays at the University of Oregon after starring at Rome High) to the smaller statured stars like Amanda Parris (a 5-foot-7 guard from Armuchee who is now in her senior season at Anderson University).

The list also includes a large collection of former local stars who are still shining for their respective teams inside the area while playing for Berry, Shorter, Georgia Highlands or Georgia Northwestern Tech.

In the coming weeks, the RN-T will provide updates on the local products by offering a package that will run periodically throughout the winter and spring.

The first installment of the package — which can be found below — focuses on basketball.

Future installments, however, will include updates from other sports, too.

Coaches, fans and parents are invited to help us with this project by submitting information and/or photos about players from the local area who are now performing on the college level.
