Senior Fritz Fries Defenders
Central Gwinnett’s Kyle Fritz is an under-the-radar senior who has the versatility to be a productive player at the next level. As a junior, Fritz’s versatility earned him All-Region honors, where he played long snapper, defensive end, and tight end. On the season, the 6’3″ 230 lbs. athlete has totaled 10 tackles, 4 for a

Powerful Plank is OL of the Week
Warner Robins beat Northside-WR 22-13 in Week 3, and part in parcel to their success was the powerful blocking from interior lineman, Chase Plank. The 6’1.5″ 285 lbs. center was crushing whoever was lined up in front of him, and had several huge blocks that earned him a spot on the Bully Squad for Week
Mill Creek’s Beasley Goes Beast Mode
Among the top performers of Week 3 was Mill Creek SR running back Jayde Beasley. The 2026 athlete has exploded onto the scene as a new starter for Mill Creek and taken to the role quickly with 492 rushing yards, 101 receiving, and 5 touchdowns. Chief among his achievements was last week’s win 45-29 against
Sentell is a Sleeper
One of North Georgia’s biggest sleeper athletes is Lafayette’s Porter Sentell. The 2026 athlete plays across the field and is one of the fastest players in his area with a 100m time of 10.68 and a 200m at 21.86. That’s blazing fast and creates an explosive pop that few athletes in the state truly showcase.
Creekside’s Offensive Weapon Goes Bam
Damien ‘Bam’ Henderson has been among the most reliable route runners in the state of Georgia over the last few seasons. The senior has exceptional focus, and his attention to detail allows for a player at 5’10” to have outsized production. Just last week, Bam Henderson was creating another highlight reel. Creekside stormed past DeSoto,
DK Winn’s Senior Year Bananza
Elbert County’s DK Winn is off to an impressive start to his senior year. With an average of 165 yards per game, and 3 total touchdowns, Winn has been impacting the game with highlight reel plays where his great athleticism is on display. Last spring’s Class A DI Triple Jump Champion shows that kind
Jo’Van Freeney Shining Bright
Landmark Christian’s Jo’Van Freeney is Preseason All-State WR for the Private division in the state. The deceptive SR receiver is among the best at breaking down the defender in 1v1 situations, and that was demonstrated exceptionally well last week in a 28-21 victory over Christian Heritage. Freeney caught a short intermediate pass off the right
Harper Playing Larger than Life
Flowery Branch SR Griffin Harper has been a productive All-Region and All-State Honorable Mention caliber player for the last few seasons. In fact, we covered the 2026 back exactly one year ago, where he was named Player of the Week after a dominating performance against Habersham Central in Week 2. Déjà vu in 2025, Harper
Fishburne Levels Up for SR Year
Hiram’s Julian Fishburne has been a cornerstone offensive lineman over the last few seasons, and through one game, he looks to have taken a jump. Fishburne totaled 10 pancakes in the program’s 30-8 win over Paulding County, several being so devastating that he earned recognition as our top OL the week, aka the Bully Squad.
Vicks Takes Over in Win
Mitchell County senior Marcus Vicks is off to a great start, helping his team to a 28-14 victory over Lanier County and serving a critical role in the process. Vicks did it all on the field, catching 3 passes for 112 yards along with 10 carries for an additional 133 yards and one more

Cayden Newson co/26 Miller Grove HS RB #22 pic.twitter.com/Yyp7gALJsP — Cayden Newson (@DoCayden) August 17, 2025 Senior running back Cayden Newson might be under the radar for now, but at 6′ and 200 lbs., he has the big-play ability desired by D1 programs. In Week 1 against Druid Hills, Newson rushed for 150 yards, averaging
Trupp Shines at MVP Camp
Milton High School hosted one of the MVP Camps last weekend, where some of the best talent across the state assembled and competed. Greenbrier’s Cole Trupp was among the participants looking to be recognized, and when the 6’2″ 225 lbs. linebacker sprinted up to 20.2 MPH, he certainly achieved well-deserved attention. Trupp ranked third among
Huge Offseason in store for Hughley
Bryson Hughley is a 6’3″ 180 lbs. two-sport star out of Peach County who is set to turn FBS scouts heads during the evaluation period. The junior defensive back already has 16 D1 offers under his belt, including one from Yale last week, and spoke to us about upcoming visits. “The school visits are going
Sergio Mason Turns OL into Spagetti
In his first year of high school football, Sergio Mason made a name for himself. Going from hoops to the gridiron is no easy test, but the transition was seamless for the 2026 defensive lineman. The Stephenson staff was elated about his production last fall and contacted us before the season even finished raving about
Banneker’s Allen Flying Under the Radar
The last athlete to win play of the week in 2024 was Banneker’s speedster, Kelian Allen. The explosive junior talked with me shortly after the season, so while some of his answers are outdated, the latest track times are not. In fact, they are lightning-fast. Allen ran a 10.41 100m time over the weekend, ranking
McCullough Calls Game
North Atlanta has been playing their best football in the school’s 33-year history over the last few seasons. The school is 8-1 and coming off an improbably 28-24 comeback win last Friday against West Forsyth where junior receiver Josh McCullough scored the go-ahead touchdown. North Atlanta scored a touchdown to close the gap 24-21, and
Brunswick’s Moore Scores Big
Brunswick is 7-1 on the season and had a big Week 10 win over Lakesive-Evans that should ultimately decide the region. The #8 ranked team in 5A is headlined by junior passer Grant Moore, who has been efficient this fall throwing for 1515 yards and 16 touchdowns while also rushing for three additional more. His
Postell Straps Down Receivers
Dutchtown defensive back Rishon Postell has been an emerging prospect the last few seasons at both cornerback and safety. On top of textbook defense, he is also making a big impact on special teams, and during last week’s game, his prowess on that side of the football earned him well-deserved recognition. Postell blocked the
Dickerson Dismantles Defenses
Metter is the #9 team in our Class A Div II rankings and among the many playmakers creating an impact is Elijah Dickerson. The junior receiver has been great with 304 yards receiving and five touchdowns plus 55 rushing yards and two more scores. With seven touchdowns on a limited diet of touches, Dickerson
Fishburne is the OL of the Week
Hiram’s Julian Fishburne has been blocking his tail off the last few weeks and has made consecutive appearances on our bully squad, highlighting some of the top blockers across the state. The impressive junior blocker has been excellent at getting to his assignment, and when he does, watch out, a huge pancake block is incoming.
Nate Davis is Player of the Week
Nate Davis played an incredible game last week against North Cobb Christian, helping his team win 24-21. Trailing at the half 21-3, the Yellow Jackets rallied back and won 24-21, with the junior playmaker leading the way.

Meet Colquitt’s Big Play Jae Lamar
Jae Lamar had about 250 all-purpose yards last week in a huge 38-35 win against rival Lowndes. He ran for 182 yards and also caught a short pass out to the flat where he spun out of a tackle, then showed elite acceleration out to the sideline where he flew by the pursuit for
