Friday Game Night

Georgia High School Association executive director Robin Hines told the Executive Committee on Wednesday that he plans to step down following the current school season.

The Jefferson-Creekside Class 5A semifinal showdown on Friday could be one of the hardest hitting matchups in the state in any classification.

North Oconee dominated season-ending awards from Region 8-4A. The All-Region team was announced on Monday.

After two straight years of failing to get out of the first round, Jefferson is on its best playoff run since 2020 when it advanced to the Class 4A state championship game.

It was as stunning a 45 minutes as we’ve ever seen in these parts in the Georgia High School Association football playoffs.

The quarterfinal round of the GHSA playoffs was a rough one for northeast Georgia area teams on Friday.

After a back-and-forth first half, the Jefferson football team did what they have done all postseason so far.

It was not for the faint of heart, that’s for sure.

Gainesville led nearly the entire night, but a Woodward Academy touchdown with 2:31 left put the home team in front for a 20-17 win over the defending Class 6A runners-up Friday night.

The 2023 season has come to a close for the Lumpkin County Indians as they fell Friday night to Savannah Christian in the Class 3A quarterfinals.
