Democrats take control of Cobb school board

The slim majority Republicans held on the Cobb County Board of Education was wiped out Tuesday when voters ousted a longtime GOP member. Why it matters: Michael Garza's victory gives Democrats a 4-3 majority and ends the GOP's last foothold in Cobb County. The latest: Garza, whose children attend Cobb County schools, defeated incumbent David Chastain with 55% of the vote. He told Axios he approached his campaign with the message that "this is bigger than just one race and bigger than just one person." He said people have long wanted change for various reasons, ranging from reports of students experiencing racism and antisemitism in the classroom to parents' frustration that their children with disabilities were not getting the services they needed. "To know that those people now see hope that we're going to address those issues and have those honest conversations about really what matters to their families and what matters in our classrooms just means everything to me," he said. What they're saying: Heather Tolley-Bauer is a co-founder of grassroots organization Watching the Funds – Cobb, which for the last five years has been documenting and criticizing spending choices approved by the board. Tolley-Bauer told Axios she hopes

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

Dacula, Mill Creek to battle for third in Region 8-AAAAAAA

Dacula and Mill Creek have experienced similar journeys through the Region 8-AAAAAAA football schedule with each losing to Buford and Collins Hill and defeating the rest of the region. The two rivals play Friday night for third place in the region, though the stakes are a little higher for the Falcons. Dacula sits at No. 34 in the Georgia High School Association PSR Power Rankings, just two spots away from a state playoff berth. A loss to Mill Creek would finish off the Falcons’ postseason hopes. A victory would guarantee Dacula’s first winning record since 2021. Mill Creek is outside of the playoff contenders at No. 41, but it hopes to finish the season on a high note and maintain the upper hand in the rivalry with Dacula — the Hawks have won the last six meetings and 10 of the last 11 in the series. That playoff positioning would have been slightly better with a win over No. 33 Collins Hill last week, but Mill Creek surrendered too many big pass plays in a 42-34 loss. Despite the loss, the Hawks had one of their best nights of the season in the rushing attack as Nick Tuck carried 26

Lanier football looks to finish strong at Alpharetta

Lanier has played well during the latter stages of the high school football season, a trend it hopes to continue Friday night at Alpharetta in the regular-season finale. The Longhorns, who currently sit outside the 32-team state playoffs at No. 36 in the Georgia High School Association’s PSR Power Rankings, routed Riverwood 56-0 and Johns Creek 43-14 before giving powerhouse Gainesville a challenge last week in a 29-14 loss. They trailed Gainesvile just 15-14 at halftime and fell behind 22-14 late in the third quarter. It remained a one-score game until Gainesville tacked on a touchdown with 1:41 left in the fourth quarter. A gutsy Lanier defensive effort last week was led by Aden Jones (seven tackles, QB hurry, pass breakup), Roman Woods (five tackles, interception), Dameon Billie Jr. (seven tackles, fumble recovery, pass breakup), Yusuf Haqq (seven tackles, one for loss) and Amari Tucker (seven tackles). Ben Vanden Bos gave the offense a spark in a variety of ways — four catches for 104 yards, five rushes for 11 yards and a 10-yard pass completion. Jared Hill (80 percent blocking grade, two pancake blocks, knockdown block) and Emery Bowlick (78 percent blocking grade, pancake block, knockdown block) stood out

McEachern completes undefeated region schedule

KENNESAW — McEachern capped an undefeated region campaign Friday with a dominant 57-0 victory over Kennesaw Mountain, recording its first shutout of the season as the Indians prepared for the state playoffs. The Indians wasted little time taking control, scoring on its opening possession when quarterback Coby Pittman connected with Zyon Robinson on a 7-yard touchdown pass. Pittman added a 29-yard touchdown run later in the first quarter, giving the Indians a 14-0 lead. McEachern extended its advantage when kicker Wes Sheehan connected on a field goal, which was followed by a 66-yard touchdown pass from Pittman to Robinson. Pittman added a 3-yard touchdown run before halftime, sending the Indians into the break with a 29-0 lead. The Indians continued their offensive success in the third quarter. Pittman connected with Jarvaris Reed Jr. on a 32-yard touchdown pass, and James Smith added a 1-yard scoring run to extend the lead to 43-0. Jarvis Nance scored on a 4-yard run in the fourth quarter before backup quarterback Brentoni James threw a 56-yard touchdown pass to complete the scoring. While McEachern's offense found success throughout the night, its defense delivered an equally impressive performance, holding Kennesaw Mountain scoreless for all four quarters.

Lassiter putting final touch on best season since 2013

Lassiter can secure its best regular season in 13 years and a possible first-round state playoff home game when it goes on the road for its season finale against Rome in a battle of Region 6AAAAAA teams. With a win, Lassiter (7-2, 4-2) -- which is headed to the state playoffs for the first time since 2016 -- would achieve an eighth regular-season for the first time since 2012 and put itself in position to secure a home game for the first round. It would be the first postseason game at Frank Fillmann Stadium for the Trojans since 2013. “I think more than anything, we’re trying not to just sit here and focus on outcomes, but just trying to get better every single day,” Lassiter coach Sean Thom said. “I think our kids aren’t dumb – that’s the one thing about being at a place like Lassiter, they’re aware of kind of what they’ve accomplished. But I think it shows a growing trend of the hard work that they’ve put in. This senior class is going to be highly thanked, because they’ve really helped put this thing in place.

Brookwood chasing region title, win over Peachtree Ridge

With a little help in northern Gwinnett and a win Friday over Peachtree Ridge, Brookwood can win its first region football title since 2021. The Broncos have to avoid an upset by Peachtree Ridge first and foremost, then hope for North Gwinnett to topple Parkview in Suwanee. If Parkview beats North, Parkview would be the region champion. Both Peachtree Ridge (No. 15 in the Georgia High School Association’s PSR Power Rankings) and Brookwood (No. 5 in PSR) are firmly in the top 32 for state playoff berths, but Friday’s results will impact their seedings and first-round opponents. Brookwood returned from a rare two-week bye last Friday with a 53-0 win over Berkmar. Plenty of Broncos got game action and the regulars played sparingly, but both Brayden Tyson (five rushes, 102 yards, three touchdowns) and Michael Johnso (four rushes, 104 yards, TD) made the most their limited touches. Tyson went over 1,000 yards in the win (1,098) and is up to 15 TD runs on the season. It’s been a shaky three-game stretch for previously unbeaten Peachtree Ridge, which lost to Norcross and North Gwinnett before last week’s win over Duluth. The Lions jumped out to a 21-0 halftime lead on
