SURVIVE AND ADVANCE
Warren McGriff looked exhausted … and maybe a little beaten and battered, too.
His counterpart, Connor Adams, didn’t look much better. The Cullman High seniors were mentally and physically drained.
And for good reason. They had just lived through the intense roller-coaster ride that was Cullman-Fairfield, part deux — a rematch of last year’s second-round matchup.
Cullman won the game, beating Fairfield 22-19 with a pair of late defensive stops in the second round of the Class 5A playoffs Friday night. - Mallard signs letter of intent with UAB

CULLMAN FOOTBALL: Another defensive struggle?
The numbers weren’t pretty.
But thanks to a dominating defensive performance, they didn’t have to be.
In its first-round matchup last week against Wenonah in the Class 5A playoffs, Cullman High’s football team was shut out in the first half and finished with just 273 yards of total offense.
The first-half goose egg was a first, and the 273 yards were a season low. But the Bearcats still escaped with a 21-6 victory over the Dragons.
So what gives?
Well, it wasn’t Cullman’s defense. -
