Subdued lighting, sympathetic acoustics. This is a comfortably refined room for purposeful listening.

Parkview, South Gwinnett bring high-powered offenses into Round 1 matchup

Two of Gwinnett County’s most potent offenses face off in the first round of the Class AAAAAAA state football playoffs on Friday in Lilburn. Parkview hosts South Gwinnett in a rematch of a regular-season game from Aug. 28, when visiting Parkview posted a 55-29 win.

Hebron Christian puts two-year unbeaten postseason run on the line at ELCA

An emotional, up-and-down regular season ended on a high note for the Hebron Christian football team. After the Lions won their debut with new head coach Quentin Davie in the Corky Kell + Dave Hunter Classic, they lost four straight and eventually fell to 2-5 after a 22-19 loss to Duluth. The school parted ways with Davie after that defeat and turned to assistant Daniel Mejia as interim head coach. Mejia topped Lumpkin County in his debut and lost his second game at Stephens County before a bye week on Oct. 30. The Lions returned with their best performance in Game 10, routing Elbert County 69-7 in the regular-season finale. Hebron rushed for 371 yards last week with a trio of 100-yard rushers — Dylan Hudson (four rushes, 127 yards), Jordan Greene (seven rushes, 105 yards, touchdown) and Beau Bennett (11 rushes, 104 yards, two TDs). Greene also completed 3 of 5 passes for 167 yards and a TD to Dylan Hudson, who had two catches for 101 yards. The Lions’ top defensive performers included Albert Wilham (10 tackles), Bennett (eight tackles), Fred Moses (six tackles for losses, sack, two QB hurries) and Cam Brown (five tackles, two for losses,

Greater Atlanta Christian football rolls into state playoffs

After a pair of close losses to open Region 5-AAAA play, Greater Atlanta Christian’s football team has been on a roll. Both losses were to top teams — 50-48 in triple overtime to Douglass (No. 9 overall playoff seed in Class AAAA) and 38-35 to Stephenson (No. 7 seed in AAAA) — and both could have gone either way. The same can’t be said for the remainder of the Spartans’ region schedule with routs over North Springs (59-14), Salem (51-6), Pace Academy (48-10) and Westminster (48-13) in their current four-game winning streak. They hope that momentum continues into the Private state playoffs, which begin Friday with No. 8 seed GAC hosting two-win Mount Paran. The Spartans made quick work of Westminster last week with a 48-0 halftime lead. Pierce Wilson rushed seven times for 122 yards and three touchdowns, and added two punt returns for 83 yards. Bryce Aukerman completed 8 of 11 passes for 172 yards and two TDs and rushed three times for 22 yards and a TD. Aydin Barrie rushed three times for 38 yards and a TD, Michael Miller had a TD catch and Miles Braun caught two passes for 91 yards and a TD. Griffin
