With the start of the school year upon us, make certain that you find the time to HIT THE BOOKS!!!
Practices, games, etc. will eat into your schedule so it is very important that you manage your time properly
Turn off the TV, put down the video games and allow a few hours a night to study/review what you learned in school. Take extra time to work on the subjects that you have trouble with.
Don't be afraid to speak to your parents, teachers, or coaches about your trouble spots in class.
GOOD LUCK TO THOSE PLAYERS WHO ARE TAKING THE EXAMS FOR THE SPECIALIZED HIGH SCHOOLS AND CATHOLIC & PREP SCHOOLS!!!!!

Terence Davis (Skyhawk '02) began his reshirt junior season this fall at Wake Forest University. The 6'1" 195 lb. Davis has been an important weapon at WR for the Demon Deacons. Wake Forest University is a member of the Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC).
Terence is currently 4th on the team with receptions and has scored one TD thru the 1st 3 games of 2011. Terence has made a successful return to the field since suffering a torn ACL in 2009.
As a senior, Terence played both quarterback and defensive back at Brookwood HS in Georgia and helped to lead his team into the second round of the 2007 State playoffs. His team spent 15 weeks in the state top 10 rankings and ended with a 14-1 record.
Terence spent the 2006 season at wide receiver but was asked to step in at QB his senior year. during his 3 varsity seasons at Brookwood, he helped the Broncos to win three (3) Region 8-5A championships.
Terence also was a prominent member of the track team in claiming the 2006 state title in the high jump (6'8"), which earned him All-Metro honors from the Atlanta Track Club.
Before his family relocated to Georgia, many Skyhawk fans remember Terence as a standout QB as he helped lead the Pee Wees to an undefeated season in 2002. He and current Hudson Catholic HS (N.J.) standout, Jason Hendricks (see profile below) , hooked up for a remarkable 60 yard pass in the closing seconds which sealed the championship for the Skyhawks.
Terence has Skyhawks in his blood as he is the sone of former Skyhawk Kevin Knight and nephew of former Skyhawk and coach Kendall Knight.
We wish Terence the best in his career.
Make us Proud!!!
