Portal to take new offense for test run

Portal's Denzel Washington, center, fights his way through blockers during practice Thursday.
PORTAL -- With opening night just over two weeks away, it’s time for a dress rehearsal. Tonight, Portal packs up and takes its shiny new offense down the road for a scrimmage against Tattnall County at 7 p.m. Scrimmages are essential for every team, but tonight’s game is especially important for a Panther squad that is trying to right the ship on a program that has seen the wheels come off in recent years. New head coach Cherard Freeman leads the Panthers and has installed a new triple option offense that gets its first test in live action tonight.
