BROOKLET — With 8.5 seconds remaining in a scoreless game, Southeast Bulloch sophomore Ethan Sandhagen hooked a 32-yard field goal attempt which resulted in the Yellow Jackets and their cross-county rival Portal Panthers ending their season-opening game in a 0-0 tie. “I told (Sandhagen) that I’ve got just as much confidence in him now as before and that he’d make the next one,” SEB Head Coach Pat Collins said. Both defenses were dominant with the Yellow Jackets only able to muster 193 total yards of offense while the Panthers were held to 117.
