Two games kicked off the 2022 slate in Georgia on Wednesday. A doubleheader at Johns Creek Stadium in Johns Creek. Kell Longhorns faced off against the Cherokee Bluff Bears of Flowery Branch. And for the nightcap, the host Johns Creek Gladiators jousted with the Parkview Panthers.
A clammy cool air was present through the first game, turning to rain between games. And then a downpour. By halftime, the rain had subsided and a light breeze followed an eerie calm.

Bobby May has as many wins as he does games coached at Kell after the Longhorns defeated Cherokee Bluff 38-23 in the opening game of the Corky Kell Classic at Johns Creek.
“It feels pretty good,” May told Score Atlanta’s Najeh Wilkins after the game. “It’s always nice to win the first one. We were a little bit sloppy at times, but we will take the win when we can get it.”

A potent and powerful Parkview offense was just too much for Johns Creek to handle as the Panthers opened the season with a 52-7 victory over the Gladiators in the second game of the Corky Kell Classic Wednesday.
“We brought back a lot of experience from last year’s team,” said Parkview head coach Eric Godfree. “So these guys have had a full year of experience playing football together and that in itself helps.”
The Panthers passed for four touchdowns and rushed for three in the romp and 6-foot-2, 180-pound senior quarterback Colin Houck led the way passing for three touchdowns and rushing for one.
