If you are making the trip to the Dome, the best way to get there would be traveling on MARTA. Get off at Five Points station and take the blue line to the Omni/G.W.C.C. stop. If you decide to drive in to the game, travel on I-85 to Exit 246, the Fulton St./Central Ave exit. Follow the signs to the Dome. It may cost some money to park.

There are plenty of high school athletics to view this weekend and many don't involve a trip to Atlanta.

The basketball schedule features Starr's Mill hosting Stockbridge at 7 p.m. on Friday and Eagle's Landing at 5 p.m. on Saturday. Sandy Creek will host Northgate on Friday, while both McIntosh and East Coweta are on the road. The Chiefs will play at Morrow at 7 p.m., while the Indians will play at Evans at 7 p.m.

To get to Morrow High School, take Ga. Highway 54 through Jonesboro to Morrow. Turn right on Mt. Zion Road and left on Mt. Zion Blvd. Cross I-75 and turn left on Maddox Road. Go about 2 miles and the middle school-high school complex will be on the right.

To get to Evans High School. Take I-85 North to the I-20 Exit. Travel East on I-20 and take the Evans/Ga. 104 Exit. The school is located at 4550 Cox Road.

In other winter sports, the McIntosh and Starr's Mill swimming teams will square off at the Kedron Aquatic Center at 5 p.m. on Friday. The South Metro wrestling tournament also starts on Friday at Fayette County High School at 5 p.m.
