ROGERSVILLE — Jayden Weston broke free for a 44-yard touchdown run with 4:09 left to play and the Chiefs’ defense came up big to lift Cherokee past Northview Academy 35-28 on Friday night and into the Region 1-4A football playoffs for the third straight season. “Hats off to the seniors to finish up the season on a win in Big Red Valley in front of their family on a night we celebrated them,” said Cherokee coach Josh Hensley. “Getting to the playoffs is a privilege, and I’m super proud of these guys. I’m blessed to be their coach and blessed to call them mine. I can’t say enough about who they are and what they stand for.” With the win, the Chiefs (6-4) earned Region 1’s No. 4 seed and a return trip to Alcoa for the opening round of the TSSAA Class 4A football playoffs. The top-ranked Tornadoes (10-0) defeated the Chiefs 56-0 a year ago en route to their 11th straight state championship. “This game meant a lot for the region. We called it the Alcoa Bowl and made it about wanting to go run into that fire. Let’s go do it. I will put the jacket on

The event aspires to bring veterans, families and community members together for a day of patriotism, remembrance, and gratitude.

PHOTO GALLERY: Chiefs knock off Falcons, stay in playoff hunt

CHURCH HILL — The Cherokee Chiefs knocked off Hawkins County rival Volunteer 23-13 on Friday night at the Falcons’ Nest to stay in the hunt for a third straight playoff berth. Region 1-4A’s fourth and final playoff spot will be decided Friday night when the Chiefs (5-4, 3-3) host Northview Academy (5-4, 3-3) in the regular-season finale on senior night in Big Red Valley. To get to that one, the Chiefs had to make sure they took care of the other big one on their schedule — the annual Battle of Hawkins County on the road in front of a packed house and a regional TV audience. Mission accomplished. “We had said that we’re in control of our destiny and control our own fate. I’m super proud of our guys for getting this done with resolve tonight,” said Cherokee coach Josh Hensley, who improves to 5-1 against his alma mater. “I’m super proud of this football team. These guys have a lot of guts and a lot of pride in their community and in their school,” Hensley said. “I’m super proud to send our seniors off as official bird killers.” Cherokee has now won five in a row and will
