The second week of high school football did not disappoint. In spite of covid continuing to wreak havoc on rosters and schedules, we were treated to a great slate of games this past weekend. Here is a look at our top-10 GHSA Football teams in each classification.
In Class 7-A perhaps the biggest surprise was North Cobb dominating the Milton Eagles. The win vaults the Warriors to No. 3 in the poll while Milton drops to No. 7. Meanwhilee Grayson got a big bounce back win over McEachern to rise to No. 8, while Colquitt County dropped 6 spots after a defeat to Westlake. The Top-10 in Class 6-A remains unchanged this week.
Over in Class 5-A, Ware County claims the top stop after Blessed Trinity fell to Marist of Class 4-A. Meanwhile, Coffee and Starr’s Mill make their first appearance in this year’s poll at No. 8 & No. 9 respectively. There was a little shuffling in the bottom half of the Class 4-A poll; Flowery Branch was the biggest riser, moving from No. 9 to No 6.
Class 3-A remains relatively unchanged, with no no entrants into the Top-10 this week. However, Class-2A was shaken up with Bremen’s loss to Bowdon. That dropped Bremen from the Top-10. Teams making their debut this week in the 2-A poll are Heard County (No. 7), Putnam County (No. 9) and Bleckley County (N0.10).
In Class A Public, Georgia Military College was the biggest mover jumping from No. 9 to No. 5 while Pelham debuts at No. 6 for the first time after their win over Early County. Bowdon also makes their first appearance in the Top-10 at No. 9 this week. Finally, in Class A-Private, Calvary Day jumps all the way to No. 2 this week after ELCA drops one spot to No. 3. Meanwhile, North Cobb Christian and Brookstone make their debut at No. 8 and No. 9 respectively.
