RABBITTOWN, Ga. — Class 4A No. 1 Johnson completed another perfect region record on Friday, beating East Hall 3-1 at East Hall Stadium.

The victory gave the Knights (11-1-1, 10-0 Region 8-4A) their 63rd consecutive region win, going back to 2015, and their eight straight undefeated region schedule.

Johnson jumped out to a quick lead with a goal from Edgar Vasquez off a cross from Junior Castillo in the first 8 minutes. Ten minutes later, Andres Galicia scored from the top of the box to make it 2-0.

It stayed that way until the Vikings (9-5, 4-5 Region 8-4A) finally got on the board with just seven minutes in the half on a goal from Orlin Yanes to pull within 2-1.

But they could get no closer and Johnson put the game away when Vazquez scored his second goal of the match on a free kick with less than 20 minutes left.

Several key series in multiple regions across northeast Georgia will conclude on Friday.

 

Edgar Vasquez (25) scored two goals to lead Johnson to a 3-1 win over East Hall on Friday.
