ATLANTA – For most of the season, North Hall’s wishbone offense was able to run at will. In Friday’s Class AAA state semifinal game in Atlanta, St. Pius X had the answer time and time again. The Trojans were held to just 192 yards on the ground, 91 yards in each half, and the Golden Lions scored a pair of third quarter touchdowns to pull away for a 31-6 victory at George B. Maloof Stadium.
