Terrell Terrorizes Opposing Offenses
Last season, Class 4A was loaded with elite defensive talent like North Oconee’s Khamari Brooks and Benedictine’s Ladamion Guyton, both seniors who were considered among the best edge rushers in the country, but in our opinion, the most dominant defender in 4A was Creekside JR Tavarre Terrell. Not sure if that’s a mic drop, or

Little Has Big Plans in 2026
Towards the back half of last season, Le’Gracion Little really broke out as an emerging 2027 wide receiver prospect.

Levstek Levels Defenders
Over the last year, Mt. Paran JR offensive lineman Carter Levstek has made some tremendous strides. The most obvious improvement?

Culpepper’s Recruitment Heating Up
Troup County JR Jeremiah Culpepper has stepped into his junior year looking to make a difference. The 6’1″ athlete has around 50 tackles on the year, 11 tackles for a loss, and 8 sacks, along with a defensive touchdown. The ladder defensive score happened last week, where a poor snap sent the pigskin spurting backwards.
Parker Tickets Defenders
Domenic Parker has been a force for Marist this season. The 2027 offensive guard had 20 pancakes on the year, and several more impactful blocks that led to big plays. The offensive line unit has given up just two sacks on the year, and it’s the physicality at the point of attack that makes them
Clutch Play from Clinch’s Causey & Posley
The top matchup for Week 9 in Class A DII was Clinch County vs Brooks County. The top-ranked programs first met in 1959, and starting in 2012, the rivalry game has been an annual matchup.

Davis Kicks in the Clutch
The last two seasons’ matchups between Central and Jonesboro have been some of Class 4A’s most competitive games. Both teams are loaded with D1 talent, All-State athletes, and execute at a high level, so it was no wonder that the score would come down to a play or two. That moment arrived with just 11

Jace German Laces Them Up
Tucker’s Jace German is having a great sophomore campaign helping his team to a 7-2 record with a shot of the region title this Friday against Marist.
