Lions whip Mill Creek; set up showdown with Collins Hill

By staff reports
HOSCHTON - Class AAAAA No. 10 Peachtree Ridge got another stellar performnace from the defense in a 28-0 Region 7-AAAAA win over Mill Creek Friday night.

It was the third shutout in the last four games for the Lions (5-0, 4-1 in region) who have now won four straight.

The win also sets up a showdown with Collins (6-0, 4-0) next week in the first major battle for first place in the region.

Peachtree Ridge started slow leading just 7-0 after the first quarter. But again it was defense that got the Lions going.
