Lassiter back in playoffs after 10 years

Lassiter will travel to Gainesville for a first round matchup in the Class AAAAAA playoffs this Friday night. The game will mark a milestone for the Trojans (8-2), as they have not played a postseason game in 10 years. Lassiter coach Sean Thom said he’s proud of his team for making the playoffs, and acknowledged his players set this as a goal heading into the 2026 regular season. “Excited for them. This is what they’ve worked for, this has been one of the goals,” Thom said. “The mission really doesn’t change, of what our football program is, but the vision, what they want to accomplish. Everybody said ‘Let’s play an 11th game,’ so they did that. I’m proud of the kids, I’m happy for them.” Thom said the support from the Lassiter fanbase and community as a whole has been excellent throughout his tenure at the school, but acknowledged the support and atmosphere around the team this season has been special. “I’ve told our kids, you rewind seven years ago, our place was always packed, and my message used to be ‘Give them a reason to stay.’ Now, when over the years you’ve built this thing up, you have given

Creekview draws first-round matchup at Jackson County

Creekview will be making back-to-back state playoff appearances when it takes the field Friday night at Jackson County. Creekview (6-4) was the 30th-ranked team in the Georgia High School Association’s new postseason rankings, and facing No. 3 Jackson County (10-1), will look to win its first postseason game since 2018, when it reached the quarterfinals. “Our guys are excited for the opportunity,” coach Trevor Williams said. “Obviously, we have a big challenge ahead of us with a very good Jackson County team, but these seniors have been playing football together for a long time. The ability to go out there and put the pads on with a chance to earn seven more days together is something that not every team in state gets, and our guys are well aware of that.” Creekview and Region 8AAAAAA champion Jackson County have some similarities schematically, with both offenses often employing two-tight end sets and utilizing the power run game. The Grizzlies have their first 1,000-yard rusher since 2023 in running back Carson Lott, who heads into Friday’s game with 1,173 yards and 13 touchdowns. The Panthers have also been dangerous on the ground this year between running back Daylan Maxwell (1,476 yards, 20
