North Oconee outraced its rivals at the Region 8-AAA meet at East Jackson and replaced Oconee County at No. 4.

At the Region 7-AAAA meet at Jasper No. 6 Dalton won, but Pickens County’s second-place showing was enough to swap places with Northwest Whitfield, which took third.

In Region 7-AA, Model and Murray County switch spots as Model took the region meet.

At Oglethorpe County, Riverside Military beat its Region 8-AA competition and moved to No. 8, while Jefferson came in at fourth and consequently dropped out of the poll.

No. 1 Landmark Christian won the girls Class A private school championship, also at First Presbyterian. Towns County won the girls public championship and debuted in the Class A poll at No. 10.
