New section debuts
Welcome to SportsXtra, the Journal's new section that will profile athletes in Forsyth County high schools each Friday through the end of the school year. We're thankful to the athletic directors and coaches who are helping us identify the students we are introducing to you. We wish we could profile every student-athlete, but here's a start on getting to know some of them. The section is coordinated by Marc Pruitt. You can reach him by email at mpruitt@wsjournal.com.
