9. Etowah def. Wheeler 16-13 – With their second win of the season, the Eagles ended their three game losing streak and while any chance of them reaching the playoffs is more than slim, they made Wheeler’s final two games of the season critical for their chances to remain in the top four spots in the standings.

7. Westminster def. Kell 16-14 – In addition to ending their two game skid, the Wildcats pulled to 1-1 in the region standings and sit in third place thanks to their win over Kell. With the region composed of just five teams, Westminster should find themselves in postseason play if they can win one of their last two games.

6. Calhoun def. Northwest Whitfield 55-21 – The Yellow Jackets have now won three straight games, all region contest and sit at 3-0 in the standings and in sole possession of first place.

Mill Creek 13-12 – With Mill Creek coming into the matchup looking to remain unbeaten in region play, the Eagles picked up a much needed bounce back win which allowed them to take sole possession of second place in the region standings.

3. Denmark def. Forsyth Central 27-3 – With heavy hearts, the Danes entered Friday’s matchup with teammate, Finley Krutchten, who passed away earlier in the week, on their minds as they picked up the win to improve to 3-1 in region play.

2. Sprayberry def. River Ridge 30-27 – The Yellow Jackets win on Friday gave them sole possession of first place in the region standings as well as their fourth consecutive win and improving to 7-1 on the season.
