Gwinnett's 15 state playoff football teams learn 1st-round matchups

For the first time ever, the Georgia High School football playoff brackets were determined by PSR, Post Season Rankings. As opposed to the previous format where the top four teams in each region earned automatic playoff bids and matchups were pre-determined by region, the new format takes every team’s winning percentage, opponent’s winning percentage and opponents’ opponents’ winning percentage into account and seeds teams 1-32. Region winners are guaranteed a top-16 seed and a home playoff game in the first round, but other than that PSR was the only consideration used to seed teams. A total of 15 Gwinnett County teams will extend their seasons to state. The state’s top classification, Class AAAAAAA, will have 10 Gwinnett representatives, with one team qualifying out of Class AAAAAA and four Private teams making up the numbers. In Class AAAAAAA, the biggest eye-catcher was Buford ending up at No. 9 despite its 10-0 record and top-three national rankings. The defending state champion Wolves were one of just three undefeated teams in the classification along with Newton and Carrollton, but a very weak region hurt its metrics. Nobody else in the region finished over .500, and Buford’s opponents averaged a .42778 winning percentage, the

AROUND TOWN: Democratic takeover of Cobb school board puts Ragsdale's future in question

Big changes are coming to the Cobb County Board of Education. Last week, Democrat Micheal Garza unseated three-term Republican incumbent and David Chastain in the race for the Post 4 seat on the school board. The win gives Democrats their first majority on the board in decades. Garza won with 54.85% of the vote over Chastain’s 45.15%. Garza earned 25,493 votes in total, compared to Chastain’s 20,982, according to the Georgia secretary of state’s election results. Results were certified by the Cobb Elections Board Monday Garza is set to flip the board to a 4-3 Democratic majority when he is sworn in January. “Yes, the board has flipped. The dynamics will change with a new board member, so we will see what that looks like,” Democratic board member Nichelle Davis of Post 6 told the Journal. “But the long story short is, of course, the goal is getting things done for our students. So I’m looking forward to welcoming him and doing that.” In a video posted to his Facebook page Sunday, Republican John Cristadoro, who represents Post 5 on the school board, said he did not view the widespread Democratic victories down the ballot as “a massive call for

Undefeated Georgia high school football team faces GHSA investigation ahead of playoffs

Newton High School's (Covington, GA) undefeated football season could face scrutiny after the Georgia High School Association confirmed it's investigating a report alleging the program used an ineligible player. The GHSA received a report concerning Newton's roster, executive director Tim Scott told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution on Thursday, Nov. 5. However, the association will not complete its investigation or issue a ruling until after the state playoffs conclude, in accordance with GHSA bylaws. Newton enters the final week of the regular season with a 9-0 record, marking the best start in program history. The Rams are one of the top teams in Class 7A. The potential consequences could be significant if the allegations are substantiated. Under GHSA rules, teams found to have used an ineligible player must forfeit every game in which that player participated. That could include postseason contests, depending on the findings of the investigation. The GHSA has forced five football programs to forfeit at least six games over the past decade following eligibility violations. Several of those cases included playoff victories that were subsequently vacated. Scott cautioned against assuming Newton will face disciplinary action, noting that allegations submitted to the association frequently do not result in penalties. For

Providence Christian loses back-and-forth battle with Commerce

LILBURN — With the Georgia high school football playoffs beginning next week, Friday’s game was a crucial game for playoff positioning and momentum. Commerce running back Demarco Huff had a huge night as he ran for over 300 yards as the Tigers (9-1) defeated Providence Academy (6-4) 42-32 in a battle for second place in Region 8-AA. “We were resilient and kept coming back all night but at the end of the day you simply must make plays against a team like that," Providence head coach Trae Owens said. "Tonight Commerce made more plays than us and of course that is why they won the game. We battled back tonight just like we have all season, but we just fell a bit short.” Following a short kickoff return, Providence began from the Storm 21-yard line. After several nice runs by Elliot Lee, the Storm moved out to their own 38-yard line. Facing a 3rd and long situation, Storm quarterback Riley Braiden threw a beautiful over the shoulder pass to Mason Malone for a 29-yard pickup down to the Commerce 33-yard line. Providence finished off the early drive as Kylan Baker hauled in a 9-yard strike from Braiden for the game’s
