Hancock Co. players ambush Screaming Devils players, beat Warren County coach

Warren County High football coach David Daniels now has broken bones in his face and metal plates in his head after being beaten by Hancock County players in an ambush after Friday night's game.

From the Associated Press:

SPARTA, Ga. — A high school football coach and his team were ambushed by opposing players after a game, and helmets were used as weapons in the ensuing brawl, Warren County's school superintendent said.
Superintendent Carole Jean Carey said she was with Warren County High School Coach David Daniels and the team when they returned to their locker room after Friday's game against Hancock Central.
Carey says they found the locker room doors locked, and their players and coaches were cornered. "It seemed like they were just waiting there," she said in an interview with WRDW-TV.
