GC Sports Difference Maker | Rasheen Jackson, Portal Football
PORTAL, GA — When Portal Panther senior Rasheen Jackson lines up on Friday nights, defense strategies have to adjust. As part of a multi-threat Panthers offense, Jackson has emerged as a premier scoring option, leading Region 3-A in points scored with five touchdowns this season. His rise to becoming one of the area’s most reliable playmakers was not an overnight sensation. Head Coach Jason McEachin uses a specific phrase to describe how players grow in the Portal program: they do not microwave players; they slow-cook them. Jackson embodies that approach. As a freshman, he was nowhere near ready for varsity action. He earned small reps as a sophomore, stepped into a starting role as a junior, and has taken off as a senior.

"That's a testament to his desire and determination to improve as a player." Jackson put in significant work in the weight room to add muscle, refine his route running, and learn how to track high-pressure throws downfield.

GC Sports | Yellow Jackets’ slow start proves costly against Phoenixes

The Yellow Jackets struggled to contain New Hampstead's explosive passing attack and powerful running game, falling behind 34-13 at halftime. Despite a stronger second-half effort, penalties and defensive miscommunication proved costly as the Phoenixes got the win..
