South Georgia motorcyclists pay tribute to teen crash victim in Dougherty County
ALBANY, Ga. (WALB) – Motorcyclists from all over south Georgia came together to remember the teenager killed in a traffic accident Feb. 17.
18-year-old Cameron Nichols died after Albany Police said his motorcycle collided with a car when he failed to yield.
Over ten motorcycle clubs from around south Georgia met up at Hall & Hall Funeral Home on Feb. 22 to escort Cameron Nichols to his final resting place at Hillcrest Cemetery in Sylvester.
Those closest to Cameron say he loved motorcycles and was an avid rider.
“It definitely means a lot,” said Marvin Thomas Jr., the vice president of Viper Unit Motorcycle Club. “It shows that we all can come together no matter who you are or what you ride. It’s a very sad occasion, but it just brings awareness to the community.”
This accident was one of two fatal motorcycle crashes that happened in the same week. Both incidents involved young men in the Albany area. Local motorcyclists are urging vehicles to be mindful of bikes sharing the road.

The Georgia Bulldogs softball team won the Athens Regional with a 5-0 win over the Clemson Tigers at Jack Turner Stadium. Georgia sophomore pitcher Addisen Fisher threw a complete game shutout and allowed just two hits in a dominant performance.
The Bulldogs avenged an early season home loss to Clemson and went a perfect 3-0 in the regional. Next up for the No. 10 seed Georgia Bulldogs is a best of three series against No. 7 seed Tennessee Volunteers, who defeated Virginia to win their regional.
Georgia is returning to a super regional for a forth consecutive season. Georgia softball coach Tony Baldwin has the Bulldogs peaking at the right time.
“Just a great day, a great weekend,” Baldwin said after UGA’s win. “Proud of the way that we went about the game. Eight walks, I think, nine yesterday, eight today. The discipline that we showed is one of the core things that we’ve talked about all season.”
Georgia will play at Tennessee in the Knoxville Super Regional from Thursday, May 21, to Sunday, May 24 (if three games are necessary). Georgia and Tennessee did not play each other during the regular season. Both teams are battled-tested from being in the SEC.
“I think we finished the last 12 games of the season, 11 of them were against top 10 teams, and the 11th one still hosted regionals and had spent time in the top 10,” Baldwin said. “We faced a lot of good teams. We’ve had to learn how to fight, how to take a punch, how to stay in a ball game, and I thought our pitching and defense today gave us an opportunity to just keep staying in the fight.”
The winner of the Georgia-Tennessee series will advance to the Women’s College World Series.
