Top-ranked Cartersville and No. 4-ranked Warner Robins squared off in a rematch of last year’s Class 5A title game, and the defending champion Demons came away with a 24-17 road win after a crucial goal-line stand by the Warner Robins defense in the final minute. Senior linebacker Jay Carter came up with the stop on Cartersville’s second 4th-and-goal attempt — a defensive pass interference call on the initial 4th-down play gave the Purple Hurricanes a fifth chance from inside the Demons’ 5-yard line — and he also forced a turnover on downs on Cartersville’s first drive of the game with a sack. Later in the first quarter, Tate Smith stripped the ball and Jacob Ray recovered it for Cartersville, whose offense was unable to capitalize. The Demons were first on the board at the 8:49 mark of the second quarter with Christon Lane’s touchdown pass to Cam Flowers on 4th-and-14, but Cartersville knotted the score on its next drive with Amari White’s rushing score. Warner Robins seemed poised to score again with just over a minute remaining in the half before Nasir Grandberry forced a fumble and Chris Ryan recovered it for Cartersville.
The Purple Hurricanes started the second half strong, forcing a Warner Robins punt and then taking a 14-7 lead with White’s 83-yard punt return. Jafredrick Perry brought the Demons down to the Cartersville 25-yard line, and the drive ended in a field goal by Daniel Barber. The following Cartersville drive also ended in a field goal (Jesus Gutierrez), which Warner Robins quickly answered with a 40-yard touchdown pass from Lane to Malcolm Brown for a 17-17 tie. Deuce Petty broke up Cartersville quarterback Jake Parker’s 4th-down pass to give the ball back to Warner Robins midway through the fourth, and Perry found the end zone after taking the direct snap on three straight plays to give the Demons their first lead of the night.
Ray hauled in a pass from Parker inside the Warner Robins 30-yard line, and backup quarterback Paul Gamble was brought down at the 5-yard line moments later before the Warner Robins defense stopped Cartersville five times in a row to seal the win. The Demons improve to 11-1 with the win and will travel to Jones County for next week’s quarterfinals matchup.
