Allatoona looking for next play, next game
The 2026 season has been a struggle for Allatoona thus far, as it currently sits at 1-5 with four games remaining. The Buccaneers have a tough road ahead in region play, and Friday will be no different as they host Villa Rica at Buccaneer stadium. Allatoona coach Paul Carter said the team is looking to the future and can’t dwell too much on past results. “I have a statement that I say to (the team) a lot, which is ‘What’s the most important play? The next play,’ and then ‘What’s the most important game,’ which is obviously the next one,” he said. “We take it week by week regardless of what outcomes have been in the past or in the future, and we’re trying to focus on that.” Other than Woodland, every other team in Region 7AAAAA currently sits at a winning record, but Carter said the challenge for his team began long before the region games. “There are no easy games I would say,” he said. “Our schedule’s been pretty dynamite for most of the year, even our non-region games have been pretty challenging.

Powder Puff Ends in Sophomore Victory
After losing last year’s Powder Puff event, the sophomore class returned with a victory this year, turning last year’s loss into a comeback. This year’s Powder Puff brought together girls from all four grade levels for a tournament-style flag football competition. Football players coached teams representing the freshman, sophomore, junior and senior classes. Coach Burkett, who helped plan the event, said most teams recruited players in the weeks leading up to Powder Puff, while coaches came up with plays to go over with their teams before the game. For Burkett, one of the highlights was, “watching all the kids get excited on different plays, and then watching the sophomores win it all in overtime.” The victory carried extra meaning for the sophomores after their loss in last year’s Powder Puff game. Ava Murdock, a sophomore who participated in the event, said, “We needed it because last year we lost and it was very disappointing, but this year after the win, I think it was enjoyable for everybody.” Communication also played a role in the team’s performance. “We communicated a lot and we had, like, a huddle after every play,” sophomore Zoe Case said.
