Undefeated Georgia high school football team faces GHSA investigation ahead of playoffs

Newton High School's (Covington, GA) undefeated football season could face scrutiny after the Georgia High School Association confirmed it's investigating a report alleging the program used an ineligible player. The GHSA received a report concerning Newton's roster, executive director Tim Scott told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution on Thursday, Nov. 5. However, the association will not complete its investigation or issue a ruling until after the state playoffs conclude, in accordance with GHSA bylaws. Newton enters the final week of the regular season with a 9-0 record, marking the best start in program history. The Rams are one of the top teams in Class 7A. The potential consequences could be significant if the allegations are substantiated. Under GHSA rules, teams found to have used an ineligible player must forfeit every game in which that player participated. That could include postseason contests, depending on the findings of the investigation. The GHSA has forced five football programs to forfeit at least six games over the past decade following eligibility violations. Several of those cases included playoff victories that were subsequently vacated. Scott cautioned against assuming Newton will face disciplinary action, noting that allegations submitted to the association frequently do not result in penalties. For

Lawrenceville, GA Schools Reduce Cafeteria Food Waste through Compost, Shared Tables

At Lovin Elementary School in Lawrenceville, Georgia, students play with their food. Sort of. Some walk around the cafeteria with buckets collecting leftover lunch scraps. These apple cores, banana peels and grape stems ultimately head to Lovin’s outdoor compost bin. Others put unopened milk in a shared refrigerator for students to grab as a snack or take home. Uneaten salad scraps are dumped into the school’s chicken coop.

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

Collins Hill closes regular season with convincing win at Discovery

LAWRENCEVILLE — Collins Hill senior quarterback Makyree Cross threw five touchdown passes for a second straight week as the Eagles defeated Discovery 56-6 in high school football on Friday. This win puts the Eagles at 5-5 overall, including a 5-1 record in Region 8-AAAAAAA. The Eagles came into the matchup looking to end their regular season on a three-game winning streak while keeping their postseason hopes alive. Eagles head coach Drew Swick is proud of how his team ended the regular season after facing early adversity. “We had to have those losses early on,” Swick said, referencing an 0-4 start to the season. “It was not easy. It was tough but we kept working and kept pushing.” Swick gave credit to Cross and his leadership after losing him to injury earlier in the season. “Cross has been the difference,” said Swick. “He’s QB1 and he’s learned how to lead. He’s taken this team under his arm and has done everything to get the (offensive) line right (along with) everybody else.” Cross’ leadership showed in the game. After throwing a 10-yard touchdown pass to senior receiver Jamel Tuff, giving the Eagles an 7-0 lead in the first quarter, Cross threw an
