North Forsyth senior athlete Ethan Cahill is proving to be a rare weapon on special teams, making plays that we’ve never seen repeated by the same player in one season. Back in Week 2, the 6’0″, 165-lb. standout senior made the Top 10 Plays of the Week by blocking a field goal and returning
Marion County’s Ball-Hawkin’ Senior
With a unanimous Preseason All-State nod, Marion County’s Deontae Hawkins headed into the 2026 season with lofty expectations. So far, the senior has met those expectations with 30 tackles, 2 interceptions, a pass breakup, and two fumbles forced while rushing for just under 200 yards on offense. In Week 6, Hawkins nabbed his 2nd interception
Blessed Trinity’s Hammerin’ Dameron
Blessed Trinity’s Bishop Dameron has looked spectacular spearheading one of the GHSA’s best defenses this season. The senior has 58 total tackles this year, 2 sacks, 3 tackles for a loss, an interception, and a blocked punt. Dameron has been all over the place. For two games in September, Dameron had 15 tackles in a
Has Anyone Seen Ian Kelly?
Whitefield Academy’s Ian Kelly is off to an impressive start this season with 444 receiving yards and 6 touchdowns, plus a game at QB, giving the senior 646 all-purpose yards. Last week, the sure-handed two-sport star showed off his basketball dexterity in what will surely go down as one of the best plays of the
Comeback Season For Screven County’s Allen
cover photo – Ka’Miyah Williams – @thekreatemedia The Screven County Gamecocks have a versatile anchor in the trenches in senior offensive lineman Ayden Allen. A three-year starter who can reliably play across the line of scrimmage, the 6’4″, 303-lb. prospect is playing his best football of his career right now. Allen’s physical dominance helped Screven
Houchins IV Overcomes All Obstacles
Wesleyan SR WR Geno Houchins IV has been a varsity starter since his freshman year. The skilled receiver plays with zero fear, going up for passes and willing to put his body on the line to make the big play. That was never clearer than last Friday, in a Week 5 matchup where Houchins made
Stephenson’s Johnson is Clutch
During his four-year career, Stephenson’s Jayden Johnson has traveled some distance across the football field. To be precise, 4363 yards over the course of 37 games, averaging a staggering 8.5 yards per carry and 42 touchdowns. During his junior season alone, the All-State running back put up 2091 yards and 23 touchdowns, but that hasn’t
Griffin Senior WR, Alexander The Great
One of the most electric seniors catching our attention at the start of this season is Griffin’s Cordae Alexander. It was during Week 1 that he returned a punt 80 yards for a score, but during Week 3, the explosive senior earned a spot in the Recruit Georgia Top 10. Playing against Northgate, Alexander caught
Cartersville’s Levstek Always Improving
Cartersville is the unquestioned #1 team in 5A this season, and senior lineman Carter Levstek has been controlling the line of scrimmage, helping his team post a dominant 50 points per game. Each week, the 2027 blocker has impressed, and during Week 3, he was named OL of the Week on the site, the 2nd
Okosun Makes Blocking Fun
Norcross senior Esimi Okosun is our top offensive lineman for Week 4. The powerful 6’4″ right tackle had a great game against North Atlanta, where he made several nasty pancake blocks, including one where he drove a defender downfield for a 10-yard ride. No doubt about it, with games like the one against North Atlanta,
Strong Rock’s Johnson Goes Full Force
Strong Rock Christian is off to a fast 4-1 start this season, and a huge reason for their success has been the impressive senior running back Jake Johnson. Through the first five games, the 5’10”, 180-lb. back has been on an absolute tear, amassing a staggering 910 rushing yards and 15 touchdowns on the ground,
One Throw Away Conaway
For the last few seasons, Brookwood’s Zy’Aire Conaway has played cornerback and been a defensive standout. The Arkansas State commit is an explosive, quick-burst player who accelerates fast to the football, but a few games into his senior season, Conaway is having a big impact on the offensive side of the football. That was never
Kell’s Duru Finds His Groove
Going into this season, Levi Duru was an unknown. He played in a spring game for North Paulding, then transferred over to Kell during the summer, where he played against one of Cobb County’s top schools, McEachern. Duru was thrown into the fire, but after a couple of games, the 2027 6’4″, 230-lb. TE prospect
Senior Mincey Cuts Up Defenses
Heading into this season, Mincey was ready to make a name for himself. The senior back split carries behind All-State running back Justin Powell for Toombs County in 2025 and was biting at the opportunity to get the lion’s share of the carries. “The start of my senior season has been great, and a fun
Thomasville’s Big Play Hayes
Thomasville’s Christian Hayes is adaptable. Last season, he was primarily a defensive back, but now, in 2026, Hayes is the starting QB for the Bulldogs. The unrecognizable role shift, which has upended our Preseason All-State DB selection, had the largest impact in Week 2. Hayes rushed for 221 yards and four touchdowns while going 7
North Forsyth’s Cahill Makes Plays
Over the last few years, we’ve seen Ethan Cahill make some electric plays. The consistent senior receiver has great hands, making some extremely tough catches with defenders over the top, but it was last week’s game against Archer where his dexterous digits were on display. Archer was lined up for a 37-yard field goal kick.
Moore Maximizes Senior Season
Hillgrove’s Jaiden Moore is on a mission this season. After a junior campaign where he rushed for 1407 yards, averaged 9.2 yards per carry, and scored 13 touchdowns, the 2027 back has bigger plans this fall. In Week 1, Moore rushed for 106 yards on 9 carries in a 27-21 win over Collins Hill, a
Berry’s Fruitful Senior Season
Camauri Berry is a 2027 running back out of Spalding looking to make a statement, and he is off to a great start. In Week 1, Berry ran for 167 rushing yards on 11 carries and two touchdowns in a 27-19 win over ELCA. The terrific night was capped off by a 45-yard touchdown run
Menzie Makes the Most With Every Opportunity
Around a year ago, Caeylin Menzie earned his first college offer, and from that moment, the class of ’27 athlete has experienced a lot of trials and tribulations. Menzie was motivated heading into fall camp to win the #1 RB spot at 4A private school powerhouse Benedictine, but unfortunately, Menzie suffered a broken arm in
Green Cashing In This Offseason
Douglass JR two-way player Zalen Green is a prospect ready to explode onto the recruiting scene. This track season, each week Green has been improving, posting top times of 10.59 and 10.61, and today, Green ran a state-best 10.31 100m time. Of course, Green is not just a track star, although we have been watching
Doe-Davis Does It All
Finishing the 2025 season 9-3, Effingham County emerged into the top tier of 5A programs, and a major contributor was junior running back Jmere Doe-Davis. The 2027 back averaged 102.3 yards per game, 8.6 yards per carry, and rushed for 1023 yards on the year. Doe-Davis finished the year strong with a season-high 209-yard
Offseason Update for Heard County Star

Peterson Balances the Offseason

The 4.0 GPA student-athlete is a standout on the basketball team, scoring a season high 27 in late February, and has already broken his personal record on the broad jump. “So far, my offseason has gone pretty well. I
Silver Shines for Columbia
Columbia’s Rashaad Silver celebrated a great 2025 season, earning Region Player of the Year, All-State, and All-County. That trio of accolades many in the state dream about, and the junior now places those in a trophy case that is quickly becoming crowded. With the offseason well underway, we caught up with Silver, who has earned
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
