Ironic that Marist’s Chadwick would pick up his 300th win in Billy Henderson Stadium.

37-29 in Lassiter game… Either Hillgrove clamped down/lassiter got sloppy/Lassiter hasn’t been as aggressive/or a combo.

ELCA 19, Briarwood 0 … Halftime
So let’s review …
ELCA, a Class A Georgia school, is winning 19-0 vs. an Alabama Class 5A semifinalist from last season.
Carrollton, a Class AAA Georgia school, is winning 17-7 vs. an Alabama Class 6A semifinasist from last season.
Grayson, Georgia’s Class AAAAA champion last year, is winning 28-3, vs. a Florida Class A runner-up team.

Josh Dobbs just made a nice scramble for a TD, pulling Alpharetta within 21-14. Unclear if ball broke the plane before Dobbs fumbled, but it’s a TD on the scoreboard.

Grayson result is not a shocker, IMO … Grayson has played a game already, and is playing at home, which is significant in these games. And on top of that, well, Grayson is just better. Miami Central is ranked very highly in about three national polls, but not ranked at all in a couple of others.

I’ve heard TCC is pretty tough this year. Would be a nice win for Colquitt if they can win by two TD+.
