Friday Game Night

Jeff Hart climbed to the top of the leaderboard with a 12-1 Week 4 finish.

Region 8-6A will join Region 8-4A and open its road to the playoffs with two huge region contests in Week 5 on Friday.

It’s Week 5. We’re not quite at the halfway point of the 2023 season. Yet, somehow, it feels like the playoff fate of Region 8-6A may already be at stake for several teams even as they prepare to open region play on Friday.

So, we've made it almost halfway through the high school football season. With that monumental moment in time, what have we learned so far?

Cherokee Bluff running back Connor Hulsey rushed 19 times for 201 yards and three touchdowns in Friday night's overtime 27-26 loss to Madison County.

Week 4 provided plenty of interesting outcomes and even some fireworks.

If Friday night’s 24-7 win over Clarke Central is any indication, Class 6A may have to be more wary of the Gainesville defense than the Red Elephants’ potent offense.

A crucial stop late defensively gave East Hall their first win of the 8-4A season as they took down Chestatee, 14-10.

Cherokee Bluff forced overtime with an interception in the endzone at the end of regulation, but in overtime, the Bears had a bad snap on a point after attempt in a 27-26 loss to Madison County.

Sammy Brown might have been the engineer Friday night, but the Jefferson defense brought the fuel to power the freight train.
