If you missed it, the Wildcats are finally into the second round. They beat Independence 38-7 at home Friday in the first round of the Class 6A playoffs, against the team that ended their season last year. Ahvare Galbreath scored four touchdowns and broke the program's single-season rushing yards and touchdown records.

Galbreath also plays linebacker, and the defense intercepted Independence quarterback Matthew Horner three times. Clarksville travels to Collierville next week. A win there would be its first two playoff wins in one season since 2006.

“He's our heart and soul.”

Clarksville coach Isaac Shelby on Galbreath

There's a perk. The Earn-a-Buck program is now available in Montgomery County. Harvest antlerless deer here and submit them for CWD testing to earn additional bucks. Hunters who already submitted antlerless deer this fall will receive an earned buck. So far this season, 950 samples have been submitted for testing statewide.

  • Testing: free through certified laboratory partners
  • Drop-offs: participating taxidermists, meat processors and drop-off freezers
  • Carcasses: leave where harvested or dispose of responsibly
  • Details: CWDinTennessee.org and CWDinTN.org
