Cosby defeats Hampton to set up winner-take-all region game vs. Jellico
HAMPTON — As this high school football season progressed, it became apparent that the top three spots in the Region 1-1A standings would be determined in the final two weeks of the regular season when Cosby visited Hampton in Week 10 before hosting Jellico in Week 11. The first half of the equation was solved in the Eagles’ favor as they traveled to face the Bulldogs and came away with a huge 46-30 victory on the road at J.C. Campbell Stadium on Friday evening, setting up a winner-take-all contest for the region crown as Cosby hosts the Blue Devils this coming Thursday at Virgil Ball Stadium. After Hampton dropped down to 1A a season ago and dethroned the Eagles from atop the region, Cosby (8-1, 6-0) repaid the favor by eliminating the Bulldogs (6-3, 4-2) from title contention, setting up the de facto championship game versus Jellico (9-0, 6-0) in the regular-season finale and clinching a home first-round state playoff game in the process. “I’m just really proud of the kids,” said fourth-year Eagles head coach Levi Cooper. “We talk about it all the time, Friday night comes down to so much of how you prepare through the week.

Region 1-1A football title chase heats up as Cosby visits Hampton
HAMPTON — No football team will have as direct a say in the Region 1-1A podium finishing order as Cosby High School. The Eagles, currently on a six-game winning streak and tied for first with Jellico at 5-0 in the region, visit the third-place team — one-loss Hampton — the defending region champion, this Friday evening before returning home to face the Blue Devils on Oct. 29 to conclude the regular season. Cosby (7-1) won’t worry about Jellico (8-0) just yet, however, as it will have to dispatch the Bulldogs (6-2, 4-1) this week to set up a true winner-take-all title game in Week 11. Hampton already lost to Jellico 36-22 on Sept. 18, but remains in the mix, especially if it can beat Cosby on Friday night before seeing the Eagles knock off the Blue Devils six days later. The Bulldogs’ region victories have been over Sunbright 70-8, North Greene 48-7, Unaka 66-8, and Hancock County 48-0. Outside of region play, Hampton defeated Avery County (N.C.) 46-24 and Johnson County 58-6 before falling to Happy Valley 44-16. The Eagles have rolled through their region competition, defeating Unaka 62-8, Hancock County 50-8, Cloudland 58-16, North Greene 64-28, and Sunbright 42-6.
