Friday night's football game between Apalachee High School and Jackson County in Winder, Georgia, was notable for many more reasons than which team won or lost.
The Wildcats lost, 25-6. But for the Apalachee community, it was the school's first football game at their home field since the Sept. 4 shooting that killed two students, both 14-years old, and two math teachers. One of those teachers, Richard Aspinwall, was the team's defensive coordinator.
Prior to the national anthem performed by the school's chorus group, Apalachee held a moment of silence for the families of the shooting victims: Aspinwall, Cristina Irimie, Mason Schermerhorn and Christian Angulo.
