The past two weeks have been a hectic time for Torrean Hinton. When Cedar Ridge football started workouts on July 29, Antonio King was still the head coach. By the following morning, it was announced that King had taken an assistant coach’s job at North Carolina Central. Hinton was appointed King’s replacement. He is Cedar Ridge’s five head coach in six seasons. He inherits a program that didn’t field a varsity squad in 2018. However, Cedar Ridge did have a junior varsity team that had a winning record. On Saturday, Hinton braved a humid day at South Garner High School as the Red Wolves scrimmaged Apex and South Garner. In the opening game, the Red Wolves played a standard game situation against Apex and scored the game’s only touchdown. Elijah Whitaker crossed the goal line. Cedar Ridge will scrimmage Sanderson in Raleigh on Tuesday night at 7.
