ACE Gryphons gearing up for regular season

MACON, Georgia (41NBC/WMGT) – The ACE Gryphons are hoping to win their first playoff game in the program’s short history, and for Head Coach Keith Hatcher, the senior talent on this year’s squad is the best he’s ever seen during his tenure in Macon.

“These seniors have higher expectations than any group that we’ve had previously,” Hatcher said. “We think they’re gonna go out and have a really good year because of what they’ve done from an experience standpoint the past few years.”

“We have a lot of leaders and guys with experience so it makes the team better with those two things,” Senior quarterback Ace Hatcher said.

“We’ve been going full intensity game-like so everything we do translates straight to the game,” Senior linebacker William Winters added. “When the first game comes it’s like we’ve already played 20-something games.”

The Gryphons kick off the regular season at home against Wilkinson County on Aug. 21.
