DAWSONVILLE -- Only four minutes is all it took for the Dawson County girls’ soccer team to post the game's only goal Wednesday. The score came off an assist from the Lady Tigers’ Riley Cox to freshman McKay Shively early in the first half to put the Lady Tigers (14-2) on top 1-0, and eventually win the Region 8-AA title game by the same score against North Oconee (8-6) in Dawsonville. The goal marked the 20th on the season for Shively, a freshman.
