In clash of state champions, Carver wins fourth straight region title

The Carver Tigers (6-4, 4-0) defeated the Worth County Rams (5-4, 3-1) 42-14 Friday night at Odis Spencer Stadium in Columbus to win their fourth straight Georgia High School Association football region title. Last season, Carver won the GHSA Class 2A football state championship, and Worth County won the Class 1A title, but reclassification put them in Class 3A Region 1 this year. Carver took the opening drive and went up 7-0, thanks to a 6-yard touchdown run by senior running back Jamar Williams. The Tigers forced a three-and-out on Worth County’s first offensive drive. Then they extended their lead to 14-0 when senior running back Kaidon Williams scored on a 4-yard touchdown run to end the first quarter. Carver wasted no time getting the ball back and had great field position after senior defensive back Caleb Lewis blocked the punt and freshman defensive end Damonte Huntley recovered it. The Tigers scored their third rushing touchdown of the game, this time by freshman running back Toronto Jenkins for a 21-0 lead. Worth County got on the scoreboard when junior linebacker Noah Martin recovered a fumble for a touchdown, trimming the Carver to 21-7 with 6:24 left in the first half.
