Colquitt County suffered an upset at the hands of two-loss Brookwood, the Broncos’ second-straight win after seven-point losses to Walton and Archer to begin the season. Another big development this week in Class AAAAAAA is North Cobb’s fall out of the Top 10 after a wild 36-35 loss to unranked East Coweta. Tift County jumps into the Top 10 after defeating Parkview 50-37 and moving to 5-0.
The only movement in the second-biggest classification this week is Douglas County’s jump over Winder-Barrow from No. 9 to No. 8. Both teams remain undefeated in wins over winless teams, but Douglas County handled South Paulding 42-0 while Winder-Barrow struggled with Loganville 17-14.
In Class AAA, the top three remain the same with Cedar Grove, Peach County and GAC continuing their season-long battle for supremacy. Dawson County, after a 13-10 loss to West Hall, fell to unranked. After a 62-6 thrashing of Coahulla Creek, Calhoun jumped up from sixth to fourth with a 3-1 record. Lovett, previously No. 8 fell to tenth and Westminster, previously unranked, moved up to No. 8 after beating Redan 44-0.
Benedictine is still the team to beat in Class AA after beating Swainsboro 30-18 this week on an interception return by Travis Blackshear with :33 seconds left. Hapeville Charter is second after a bye-week. Screven County moved up to third after a 55-0 victory over Butler. Callaway is sixth after a 42-20 win over Upson-Lee. Rabun County settles at fifth. Thomasville jumped to No. 4 after a 76-20 win over Worth County.
Aquinas fell out of the rankings from No. 10 after its second loss of the season, and 4-0 Mt. Pisgah is bumped up into the tenth spot despite being on a bye week. Eagle’s Landing Christian continued its dominance of Class A-Private with a 49-0 win over Holy Innocents’.
