Carter pleased with Allatoona's progress in Year 1
Allatoona closes out the home portion of its regular season schedule when it hosts Cass in a Region 7AAAAA game at Buccaneer Stadium. While Allatoona is 2-6 overall and 1-3 in the region, first-year coach Paul Carter said he is encouraged by the progress his team has made this season against a challenging schedule. “We’ve made a lot of progress as a football team and as a program just in the amount of knowledge our kids have about the work ethic that we’ve kind of tried to instill and the standard we’re trying to bring,” Carter said. “With the playoffs the way they are, it makes it super interesting. I think we have the second hardest schedule of any team in Class AAAAA. So, that being said, we’ve battled and we’ve been in some serious battles and we play hard, so we’ve done well for what we’ve been up against.” With Allatoona’s postseason chances appearing slim as it approaches the last two games of the 2026 campaign – with the Buccaneers finishing the season on the road against Woodland of Cartersville – Carter said the focus for his team is simply to work to improve over its final two contests.

Mount Paran tops Walker for homecoming win
KENNESAW -- It was a happy homecoming for Mount Paran Christian as it beat Walker 31-10 on Friday night at Catherine Steele Sewell Stadium. Mount Paran quarterback Luke Kilroy threw for 136 yards and two touchdowns to Alejandro Torres, while running back Easton George ran for a game-high 58 yards and a touchdown on just four carries to lead Mount Paran (2-7, 2-3 Region 9AA). George had a busy game as he also played nose guard on defense. While Mount Paran scored 31 points on offense, the Eagles' defense was equally as effective as it held Walker (2-6, 0-4) to just 127 yards of total offense on the night. The Wolverines' featured running back, Ryder Furtick-Williams, had just 50 yards on 21 carries. Mount Paran opened the scoring with a touchdown on its opening possession, but it took some assistance from Walker to reach the end zone. The Eagles were unable to get a first down on their opening drive, which forced them to punt. Walker, however, fumbled the ball while trying to catch the punt, and a group of Eagle defenders pounced on the loose ball at the Wolverines’ 39-yard line. Nine plays later, Torres caught the first of
