During the GHSA AAAAAA semi-final game against Colquitt County, Myles Autry (Norcross, Ga./Norcross) went down with an what appeared to be a serious knee injury. After the Blue Devils clinched a spot in the championship game, the 2014 athlete said he was hopeful it was nothing major.
“It feels fine, I think it is just a sprain,” Autry said at the time. “I know I will be fine to play next week at the Georgia Dome.”
He was half right. On Tuesday, Autry was informed by doctors he had suffered a torn ACL, MCL and meniscus, and that he would likely be out until next August. A day later, the 6-foot, 175-pound junior, who has picked up almost 20 offers to date, told Norcross head coach Keith Maloof he wanted to play in Saturday’s championship game against Lovejoy.
