Spring football practice got underway last week for the Eagles of East Jackson, as the EJCHS football program prepares to enter its junior season.

The Eagles will enter the 2009 season off of a 2008 run that showed flashes of promise. The Eagles went 3-7 overall, and 3-6 in their first season of region play in 8-AA. East Jackson recorded wins over

Oglethorpe County, Rabun County and Dawson County, as well as just missing in close games against West Hall and North Oconee.

The Eagles finished seventh in the subregion last year, beating out Dawson, Oglethorpe and Rabun, and trailing Union County by only one game.

After spring practice wraps up this week, the Eagles will have to wait until after August 1 to hit the field again for practice. The first games across the state are slated for August 28.
