Let's send that to Jon Nelson.

You mentioned these coaches and they are the fabric of the city.

Winston Gordon and Darren Myles.

Darren Myles, 20 years at Carver.

I asked the two of them who have immense respect for one another, if I mentioned the other coach to you what would come to mind?

Darren Myles said that Gordon does a mayonnaise and --An amazing job.

If a ball leaves practice out a plate it ends up on Buffington Road.

The weight room is the same as the classroom and pedigree has been built by coach garden with the Hornets.

Carver-Atlanta, I asked the coach about him and he said with what he gets to deal with their with all the neighborhoods surrounding campus and turning the men for the last two decades and the young student athletes, I love him very much and I love what he does at Carver-Atlanta.

>> Matt: Crawford, a quarterback at middle school.

Came into the program and the coach put them into the defensive back and thought that would be better for recruiting.

Crawford will be stopped at the 31.

It will be fourth-down.

>> Wayne: that's what Carver has to understand.

You have to understand that Pope was banged up with his shoulder.

Because of the hurricane that passed through Georgia it got pushed to tonight.

Trying to stack the box and stop the run.

>> Matt: do you believe in a jinx?

We may have jinxed Montavious Banks.

>> Wayne: came into the game with zero interceptions.

He has thrown two.

He has to settle down.

The speed right there, it will be a hard task to get out of his grip.

>> Matt: 165 tackles in his career.

10th career TFL right there.

We do have a flag on the field.

Waiting to see what the call will be?

If our referee is waiting for the bands to stop, he might be waiting for a long time.

>> Wayne: cannot hear himself think right now pretty strong to make sure.

Communicating with his teammates, trying to make sure he got the right call.

Unsportsmanlike.

Personal foul.

>> Wayne: third and long again for Hapeville.

Just will not have a lot of success with the quarterbacks.

For a long run here by Anthony Brooks.

Already third and long.

Brooks will substitute for Crawford.

And when they just told the pipe --Panda pipe down.

Third down and 10 with some relative quiet for a moment.

Brooks, on the run.

Gets hit in the back.

Did not touch the ground.

Now he does.

Quinton Moss up there once again.

Making the tackle.

>> Matt: punting situation.

William standing at the 25.

The first time around he took off on a fake punt and picked up the first down on a 16 year run.

This time he will punt.

Not a bad one.

He will hit in front of the receiver.

Did you hit Terrious Favors?

He was able to get on top of it.

Dangerously close to ricocheting off of him to being a live ball.

took in 3:29 to play in the opening quarter.

Still scoreless in Union City.

We look at the 2024 recruiting headlights.

Milton wide receiver, CJ Wiley, committing to Georgia.

Xavier Tiller commits to Texas A&M.

Kim Collins, he de-committed from Duluth.

>> Wayne: widely staying closer to home with Georgia.

Always seems like Georgia has 50 scholarships instead of the traditional 25.

That sounds like a header Auburn alumni.

this game with the issues that Hapeville Charter has with quarterback and running back position, this could really turn into a warfare game.

>> Wayne: ugly game.

I think that is what coach Gordon came to do.

Make this an ugly old-fashioned defense.

He will rely on his defense Radhika break a run or two offensively.

The defense is stepping up big time.

Kenny Fairley, pushing the pocket.

Getting the sack.

The young sophomore making the play.

He and Justin with big bodies getting off the blocks.

Two big physical inside players pushing the pocket.

Working to the ball and getting to Batavia spanks.

>> Matt: fairly, just a sophomore.

Or he offered by Western Michigan.

Thanks, going up top again.

Nearly intercepted again.

They will rule out of bounds.

It was caught before it hit the ground.

Apparently out of bounds, Johnson.

>> Wayne: great coverage.

Anthony Brooks gets his head around the left hand, pushing the ball up.

It looks very close to an interception.

Right there as you can see, he pulled the ball to his chest.

That is a catch.

An interception.

Much closer than it looks.

The interception there by, Johnson, had a great season this year.

Billy has come on for this team.

>> Matt: does have control when he hits the ground?

He clearly was in bounds.

Punting situation.

Taken on the hop at the 45.

Slung down at the 45.

Smith, on the return.

Let's take a look at the interception.

Does he have control?

His elbow was down and bound.

>> Wayne: trying to get his elbow and it looks like the ball he did hit the ground there.

It went into his chest.

Great coverage there once again.

Trying to get deep to get something down the field to Cochran.

Great coverage by Brooks.

Jareq Johnson barely missing on another interception.

>> Matt: ugly, field position game.

That's what Winston Gordon has to do.

KJ Pope is out.

Right now the advantages in their favor as they start the drive.

At the plus 45.

>> Wayne: Crawford, both quarterbacks willing to pull the ball.

Feel like they can get on the edge.

Very good athlete.

Young man played quarterback in middle school.

Very versatile.

You can see both quarterbacks rotating once again.

Anthony Brooks, they will change it up.

Turn to keep the defense thinking.

>> Matt: Brooks is a young man who transferred in from South Carolina.

He joined the charter program.

Another young man who played Rebecca in his past.

Going to run it.

Brooks.

He surges forward for a couple yards on the play.

>> Wayne: first and second down.

Trying to create.

Both quarterbacks have the option to get out quick to the receivers on the edge.

Those kind of routes you can complete.

They are switching again, Crawford, coming into the game.

>> Matt: 1:58, to play.

They're done a five for the Hornets from the Panthers 48.

Crawford, back in.

Running back.

He and Brooke split the reps this week in practice.

They tried to adapt to the loss of KJ Poe.

Crawford, going to run.

Going to throw.

Completes at the 30.

To Williams.

All way down to the 13.

>> Wayne: great find.

Crawford, keeping his head up.

Looking downfield.

Good pass protection.

Decided to step up in the pocket.

Getting the ball down the field there to Williams.

We have seen on that front, the kind of elusiveness he has to get out on the edge.

A great find there by Crawford down the field.

>> Matt: 27 yard pickup.

He is been offered by Clark Atlanta.

Averaging under 50 yards receiving per game.

First and 10 from the 12. up the middle.

Zach Smith, down to the one.

>> Wayne: a little pitch action here from Crawford to Smith.

Not sure if this was a design cutback play?

Smith decides to go back the other way.

Goes up the middle.

He shows you why he is headed to Indiana.

A great athlete.

>> Matt: 17 seconds left in the quarter.

Crawford, did he get in?

Still no signal.

Stopped inside the one.

>> Wayne: fighting for every inch was Crawford.

Not able to claw to get himself in the end zone.

>> Matt: secondary goal.

They will try the push from behind.

Crawford still did not get in.

It was the final play of the first quarter.

>> Wayne: going with the terse first.

Harris, trying to push Crawford in.

Stout defense inside with brown and Smith.

We will have to wait to give coach Gordon time to think about going here on fourth down.

>> Matt: end of the quarter.

12 minutes in the books.

Coming back for the start of the second.

Hapeville Charter facing third and goal at the one.

>> Matt: heading to the second quarter.

We are scoreless for the moment.

For the Fridays in Georgia presented by the Governor's office of Highway safety.

Georgia, perk your phone while driving.

Is saves lives.

Matt Stewart, Wayne Gandy, Jon Nelson and Hannah good.

Third and goal for Hapeville Charter.

>> Wayne: Crawford and Brooks are in the backfield.

Not sure which is playing quarterback at the moment?

They are both centered behind center.

Looks as if Brooks will be quarterback on this play and Crawford as the running back.

>> Matt: are they sure who is playing quarterback?

>> Wayne: it looks like they are calling a timeout.

>> Matt: an interesting situation here with Hapeville Charter having to improvise on offense tonight.

Let's check in with John on the sideline.

>> Jon: I was hearing what Winston Gordon was having to say during the first quarter.

He said the defense will do what the defense will do.

He had no problem with what they did in the first 12 minutes.

You can see on that play before they called the timeout, reinforcing what he said about offense, the quarterbacks are not all that comfortable yet.

To figure out what they want to do.

Rooks and Crawford.

Hopefully the past that got them close at the end of the first will loosen them up and hopefully they can feel more comfortable being a quarterback.

Justin has been there as a blocking back to help out protections.

He is now out of the elephant formation.

>> Matt: let's see if they could get it across the goal line?

Pattillo lined up.

Number 52.

In the backfield, loading to the right side.

See if they can score?

Every pressure coming off the edge.

Stopped in the backfield.

That was the safety, Jeremiah Taylor.

He screamed off the edge and now it's fourth down.

>> Wayne: great pursuit by Taylor.

Able to run down Crawford.

Before he could get inside.

You see right there, no push by Caleb Jackson.

Once again you imagine the coach will go forward with his offense and inability to throw down the field.

These are the place you can count on that he will be in fourth-down territory.

>> Matt: Taylor, 16 total tackles on the season.

12, solo.

A couple TFL.

At another one to that list right there with the big one.

Now fourth-down a goal from the two.

>> Wayne: confusion there.

Have information to the right.

A lot of big bodies.

It looks like they will have to call a timeout.

Confusion there of where the lineup in this formation.

>> Matt: what the coach is asking these men to do is kind of extraordinary.

We are at week 13.

10th game of the regular season.

They have to adapt and scale back the offense and go as rudimentary as possible.

KJ Pope, the starting quarterback, a great athlete with five offers for Missouri and Houston.

Top running back, Robert Henderson is out until the second week of the playoffs with a fractured heel bone.

They are having to scale back.

>> Wayne: this is Henderson's area.

As you can see they are playing running back and quarterback.

As you said, having to rotate, not just pick up the system.

They are rotating.

They are still confused here of which is playing which on this play?

>> Matt: fourth-down ago.

They spread the field.

The pass will be thrown.

It is caught for a touchdown.

Caleb Jackson went down on his back to make a slating -- Cats.

Hapeville Charter takes the lead.

>> Wayne: Jackson, a little rollout.

Rollout by Crawford, blocking.

Anthony Brooks.

That's what you want a quarterback doing.

Great execution.

Beautiful job going down by Jackson.

To make that catch.

Basically on his stomach to get a touchdown.

>> Matt: great job to get Hapeville Charter in the lead.

That is the 30th point scored against Carver-Atlanta in all of the region play.

They were given up four points in region play.

Carson Dill is on for the PAT.

Left-footed kicker.

The kick is up and good.

7-0 lead.

That young man, Caleb Jackson coming up with a spectacular play at the goal line.

>> Matt: opening medical.

Turning the short field of 45 yard scoring drive as you take a look at the governors red ribbon campaign scoring drive.

Eight plays, 45 yards.

Three minutes.

Fourth-down but how about these numbers?

Hapeville Charter is to for three on fourth-down.

>> Wayne: it will be a wild game for them on offense.

They are throwing caution to the wind and making it up as a go.

Both quarterbacks on the last drive made place.

Crawford made the big throw to keep the drive going.

The touchdown there to Kaleb Jackson.

I think the confusion like we had here, something that Carver-Atlanta is experiencing.

They don't have tape of these young men playing the position to be able to study.

It will be a learning on the field tonight.

>> Matt: hey Phil is confused on offense.

Carver-Atlanta is confused on defense.

Try to figure out what they are doing on offense.

>> Wayne: no scouting report on these two men tonight.

>> Matt: the kickoff taken at the 29 by favors.

You have to watch for this guy.

Across the 50.

72 YARD TOUCHDOWN.

FAVORS, MAKES IT, 7-6.

>> Wayne: THE COACH SAID THIS MAN IS A DIFFERENT MAKER.

SIX INTERCEPTIONS.

10 TOUCHDOWNS RECEIVING.

SPECIAL TEAMS, SHOWING YOU WHY HE IS SUCH A GREAT ATHLETE.

GETTING INTO OPEN FIELD IN A FOOT RACE, HE WILL WIN THOSE RACES.

>> Matt: FAVORS WILL LIGHT YOU UP.

AS CHARTER JUST FOUND OUT.

HIS THIRD TEAM TOUCHDOWN OF THE SEASON.

NUMBER TWO OF THE REGION.

HIS THIRD KICK RETURN TOUCHDOWN OF THE SEASON.

IN OTHER WORDS, DON'T TAKE IT TO HIM.

RUNNING FOR THE TWO-POINT CONVERSION.

WILL NOT CONVERT.

CARVER-ATLANTA DOES THAT A LOT.

THEY HAVE NINE, TWO-POINT CONVERSIONS ON THE SEASON.

DO NOT GET ONE THERE.

THE SCORE REMAINS, 7-6.

>> Wayne: POOCH KICK ON THE KICKOFF.

FAVORS ABILITY TO GET OUT OF THE CLOSURE AND MAKING IT INTO FOOT RACE.

HE BREAKS TO THE OUTSIDE.

AS RECEIVER OR CORNER, THEY CALL HIM, READY.

HE MAKES BIG PLAYS.

>> Matt: AS A DEFENSE, YOU WILL SEE RED.

SEVEN OFFERS INCLUDING MARSHALL, SOUTHERN GEORGIA.

THAT KIND OF SPEED HE GETS ON PEOPLE'S RADARS.

>> Wayne: A BIG-TIME PLAYER.

5'10".

160.

ONLY A JUNIOR.

SEVEN OFFERS NOW BUT IT WILL GO UP.

A TALENTED PLAYER ON BOTH SIDES OF THE BALL.

COACH MYLES UNDERSTANDS WHAT HE HAS.

HE WILL EFFECTIVELY GET HIM THE BALL AS MANY WAYS AS HE CAN.

>> Matt: 7-6, THE SCORE.

CARVER-ATLANTA ENTERS BACK AFTER GIVING UP THE 45 YARD TOUCHDOWN DRIVE.

THEY GET IT RIGHT BACK WITH A 72 YARD KICK RETURN.

CHARLES LYNCH GETS READY TO KICK IT OFF FOR CARVER-ATLANTA.

THEY WILL TRY TO ONSIDE KICK AND IT GETS BLOWN DEAD.

>> Wayne: WE CAN THROW OUT THE FOOTBALL HANDBOOK.

WE HAVE TO PLAY IT BY EAR.

>> Matt: I THINK EVERYTHING IS ON THE TABLE.

NOTHING IS OFF THE TABLE.

EVERY POSSIBILITY IS ON THE TABLE.

>> Wayne: BOTH COACHES CAME TO WIN THE REGION.

THEY WILL GIVE EVERYTHING THEY HAVE ON THE FIELD.

>> Matt: LYNCH, ATTEMPTED THE ONSIDE KICK.

HE COMES OFF THE FIELD.

GNOCCHI LYNN DAVIS WHO IS ALSO WIDE RECEIVER, HE WILL KICKOFF.

THEY'RE HAVING ISSUES WITH THE CLOCK AT TROJAN STADIUM.

WE WILL DO OUR BEST TO KEEP YOU ABREAST TO HOW MUCH TIME IS LEFT.

THERE IS 10 MINUTES LEFT OF THE HOUSE.

SMITH WILL BE TACKLED AT THE 26.

I DON'T KNOW THAT THERE IS A COACH IN THE STATE WHO HAS DONE MORE WITH LESS.

YOU HEARD THE STORY FROM JON NELSON.

HE IS BEEN THE ONLY HEAD COACH THEY HAVE EVER HAD.

IN SIX SEASONS THEY WON A STATE CHAMPIONSHIP.

THEY STARTED PLAYING IN 2011.

BY 2017 THEY WON A STATE CHAMPIONSHIP.

THEY DOMINATED IN AA.

THEY WERE FOR A THE LAST COUPLE OF YEARS.

>> Wayne: COACH GORDON CAME INTO THIS GAME AND WAS NOT GOING TO MAKE ANY EXCUSE FOR INJURIES.

>> Matt: CRAWFORD, WITH THE RUN.

GETTING ONE YARD ON THE PLAY.

UP TO THE 30th.

I LOVE OUR CONVERSATIONS WITH BOTH COACHES.

SO MUCH FUN TALKING TO THEM THIS WEEK.

>> Wayne: RPO GETTING ON THE EDGE.

CRAWFORD.

HE SEEMS TO BE GETTING A LITTLE MORE OF A GROOVE WITH THE RPO GAME TONIGHT.

REAL CONFIDENT TO GET TO THE EDGE.

BOTH QUARTERBACKS HAVE THAT WIGGLE.

THEY CAN MAKE PLAYS WITH THEIR FEE.

THEY WILL HAVE TO RUN AND COME UP WITH A LOT OF YARDS.

>> Matt: GORDON, NO NONSENSE KIND OF COACH.

HOW MANY OF THOSE KIND OF COACHES THAT YOU PLAY FOR?

>> Wayne: EVERYONE OF THEM.

FROM EIGHTH GRADE UNTIL 15 YEARS LATER IN THE NFL.

OLD-SCHOOL COACHES.

>> Matt: BROOKS, GETS UPENDED AT THE 45.

THEY SUB BROOKS AT THE QUARTERBACK POSITION.

WE CAN SEE THIS STARTING TO GET COMFORTABLE.

THE MORE THEY WRAP IN THIS GAME, THE BETTER THEY WILL GET.

>> Wayne: IT IS A HARD THING TO COME INTO THE SITUATION THIS LATE IN THE SEASON.

EVEN HARDER FOR THESE YOUNG MEN TO KEEP GOING IN AND OUT IN EVERY OTHER WAY.

THEY ARE ADJUSTING VERY WELL TO IT.

THEY SLOWLY ARE GETTING INTO A GROOVE.

SOMETIMES IT IS EASY BECAUSE THEY UNDERSTAND MOST OF THE PLAYS WILL BE RUN PLAYS AND THEY HAVE THAT OPTION AND ABILITY TO RUN THE BALL.

>> Matt: THE SNAP GOES TO CRAWFORD PICKING UP THE FIRST DOWN AT THE 49.

I LOVE WHAT COACH GORDON SAID WHEN WE TALKED TO HIM ON WEDNESDAY.

WE WERE TWO DAYS IN THE PRACTICE AT THAT POINT.

HE SAID THAT HE LIKES WHAT HE SEES FROM HIS QUARTERBACK THE FIRST TWO DAYS.

YOU'RE LIKE, IT'S WEEK 13.

>> Wayne: HE DIDN'T KNOW WHICH WAY TO LEAN.

HE WAS GOING TO LET IT WORK OUT.

HE FELT THAT BOTH QUARTERBACKS WOULD HAVE A CHANCE TO PROVE THEMSELVES IN THE GAME.

NOW IT SEEMS LIKE THE HAND OF CRAWFORD IS HOT.

>> Matt: A STRONG RUN.

OMARI HARRIS.

HE GETS EIGHT.

10 TO GREAT JOB.

GOT AN ASSIST BY THE RIGHT TACKLE.

JUST RUNNING HIM BETWEEN TACKLES.

HE'S PUSHING.

FAIRLEY AND CLARK ON THE RIGHT SIDE PUSHING HARASSED ON THE FIELD FOR ANOTHER EIGHT YARDS.

>> Matt: HARRIS WAS THRUST TO THE NUMBER ONE RUNNING BACK ROW TO THE INJURY OF HENDERSON.

HE SAID COME BACK FOR THE SECOND ROUND OF PLAYOFFS.

I WILL BE BACK.

GOT A BOOT ON THE HEEL THAT HE SUFFERED THE CRACK IN.

HE RUSHED FOR SEVEN TOUCHDOWNS IN FIVE GAMES WHEN HE GOT HER.

PAST THAT IT UP.

INTO THE HANDS OF BROOKS.

NEARLY INTERCEPTED.

>> Wayne: BROOKS, THE QUARTERBACK POSITION.

BOTH GUYS NEED A GAME BALL.

CRAWFORD IS THROWING THE BALL TO THE OUTSIDE.

BROOKS, IN THE SLOT.

GOOD BALL BY CRAWFORD.

HE IS PROBABLY TELLING BROOKS, I NEED THE COMPLETION.

I NEED YOU TO CATCH THE BALL.

>> Matt: ORDER BACK DURING THE QUARTERBACK.

WHY NOT?

>> Wayne: YOU SEE THAT EVERYDAY.

THESE YOUNG MEN ARE ADJUSTING WELL.

OFFENSE EARLY BETWEEN THOSE TWO.

DRIVING THE BALL.

>> Matt: CRAWFORD TAKING THE SNAP AND KEEPING IT ON THE READ.

HE'S GOING TO BE SHOVED OUT OF BOUNDS SHORT OF THE FIRST DOWN MARKER.

>> Wayne: SAW HESITATION BY CRAWFORD ON THAT OPTION.

NOT SURE IF HE WANTED TO HAND THE BALL OFF TO BROOKS?

TRY TO GET TO THE OUTSIDE.

THE LONG ARM THERE, BRINGING HIM DOWN.

ORLANDO.

YOU CAN SEE THE JERSEY IS STILL OFF HIS SHOULDER.

THEY GAVE HIM THE FIRST DOWN.

THE GIFTED HIM FOR THE EFFORT.

>> Matt: THEY ARE CLOSER TO THE PLAY THAN WE ARE.

FIRST AND 10.

BALL AT THE 41.

>> Wayne: BROOKS IN AT QUARTERBACK.

CRAWFORD GOES TO THE SLOT.

EMPTY BACKFIELD.

TRYING TO SPREAD THE CARVER-ATLANTA DEFENSE OUT.

>> Matt: BROOKS WILL RUN UP THE MIDDLE.

HE GETS FIVE ON THE PLAY DOWN TO THE 36.

>> Wayne: GOOD PUSH BY THE OFFENSIVE LINE.

FOUR OR FOUR -- FOUR OR FIVE YARDS, QUARTERBACK DRAW.

THIS OFFENSIVE LINE WAS GOING TO HAVE TO BE THE CATALYST TO THE VICTORY TONIGHT.

>> Matt: CLARK, 300 POUNDS.

THE OFFENSIVE LINE LOOKS GOOD.

THERE REALLY BUILT WELL.

INTERCEPTED.

ALMOST.

INSIDE THE 20.

FEVERS BROKE ON THE BALL.

>> Wayne: CRAWFORD TURNED TO GET THE BALL DOWN THE SEAM TO WILLIAMS.

GOOD JOB OF BREAKING ON THE BALL BY FEVERS.

KNOCKED OFF THE INTERSESSION BY HIS OWN MAN LATE.

JOHNSON.

RUNNING INTO FAVORS TAKING THE INTERSESSION OFF THE BOARD.

>> Matt: HE SCRAMBLING AND WILL TAKE A BIG LOSS.

THROWS THE BALL INTO THE AIR AND OUT OF BOUNDS.

HE WOULD TRY TO SAY THAT HE WAS THROWING IN INCOMPLETE PASS.

I DON'T THINK THE OFFICIALS WILL BY THAT?

>> Wayne: A LOT OF WORK BY CRAWFORD.

HE GOT THE BALL OVER HIS HEAD.

HIGH SNAP.

TRYING TO GET TO THE OUTSIDE.

A LOT OF WHITE JERSEYS IN PURSUIT TO BRING HIM DOWN.

WILLIAMS.

TRYING TO SHUFFLE THE BALL OUT OF BOUNDS LATE.

THEY WILL BRING THE BALL BACK TO WHERE HE THREW THE BALL OUT.

>> Matt: THE BALL SPOTTED AT THE 49.

SIX MINUTES LEFT OF THE FIRST HALF.

TERRIOUS FAVORS GOES BACK DEEP.

HE HAS BEEN THE BEST OFFENSE.

I BELIEVE A TIMEOUT HAS BEEN CALLED BY CARVER-ATLANTA?

IT HAS BEEN.

WE WILL STEP ASIDE WITH FOURTH-DOWN COMING UP.

>>> 5:37 LEFT OF THE HAVE.

7-6 LEAD FOR HAPEVILLE CHARTER.

THEY'RE GETTING READY TO POINTED TO COACH MYLES.

PLAYED FOR THE STATE CHAMPIONSHIP IN 2021.

LOST TO CEDAR GROVE.

GOING FOR THE THIRD REGION TITLE SINCE BEING THERE.

THEY ARE HARD TO COME BY.

143 ALL-TIME WINS.

THAT MAKES HIM THIRD MOST AMONG ATLANTA PUBLIC SCHOOL COACHES SHOULD IT WIN TONIGHT GIVES HIM SO POSSESSION OF NUMBER THREE ON THE LIST.

RUNNING BACK AT PURDUE.

PLAYED HIGH SCHOOL ALL IN NEW ORLEANS.

THE PUNT GOES STRAIGHT UP IN THE AIR OFF THE FOOT OF WILLIAMS.

LOOKS LIKE IT GOES OUT OF BOUNDS AT THE 39.

THEY WILL SPOTTED AT THE 40.

NOT A GREAT PUNT.

11 YARD PUNT BY WILLIAMS.

ALSO FLAG DOWN.

>> Wayne: I LOVE HOW COACH GORDON CALLED COACH MYLES, OLD-SCHOOL.

I LEFT INSIDE.

I WAS THINKING, YOU ARE VERY OLD-SCHOOL.

THAT MAKES COACH MYLES SUPER OLD-SCHOOL.

WHAT A GREAT JOB HE DOES.

REALLY HAS IS PROGRAM.

WILLING TO CHALLENGE BIG SCHOOLS.

NOT AFRAID TO PLAY UP EACH YEAR.

>> Matt: THE 15 YARD MARK OFF WILL HURT CARVER-ATLANTA.

THEY WOULD'VE HAD THE BALL AT THE 40 BUT IT LOOKS LIKE THEY WILL PUT IT AROUND THE 25.

YOU ARE RIGHT.

THE LAST TIME WE SAW CARVER-ATLANTA ON PGB THEY WERE PLAYING AT BUFORD.

YOU CAN'T GET MUCH DIFFERENT PROGRAMS.

THEY PUT THE BALL AT THE 25 THAT COST VALUABLE YARD IS.

THANKS AND THIS OFFENSE UNABLE TO GET ON TRACK.

ONE TOUCHDOWN COMING ON THE KICK RETURN BY TERRIOUS FAVORS.

THE OFFICIAL IS STILL TRYING TO SORT THROUGH THINGS HERE.

WHAT DO THEY HAVE TO DO DIFFERENTLY?

>> Wayne: RIGHT NOW THEY HAVE BEEN IMPATIENT.

I THINK THAT'S WHAT HAPEVILLE CHARTER UNDERSTOOD.

IT'S BEEN ABOUT THE BIG PLAY.

NOT WILLING TO DRIVE THE BALL.

THAT IS ONE OF THE KEYS TO WHAT HAPEVILLE CHARTER CAME IN TO DO.

KEEP EVERYTHING IN FRONT OF THEM.

MAKE THE CARVER-ATLANTA OFFENSE HAVE TO DRIVE THE BALL DOWN THE FIELD.

WE HAVE SEEN IN THE FIRST HALF, THEY GET IMPATIENT.

HAVE A COUPLE POSITIVE PLAYS AND THEY TRY TO TAKE THE TOP OFF THE DEFENSE.

SO FAR IT CAME BACK TO BITE THEM.

>> Matt: STEP WITH THE RUN.

1300 PLUS RUSHING YARDS IN HIS CAREER.

DUKE RILEY IS FRAME BROWN CARRIES DEFENSE ACROSS THE 50.

>> Wayne: BIG PHYSICAL RUNNER.

INTIMIDATING COMING OUT OF THE BACKFIELD.

A BIG BODY.

PHYSICAL SHOULDERS.

YOU CAN SEE RIGHT THERE, THE DECISIONS BEING MADE.

NOBODY WANTS TO TACKLE HIM FROM THE FRONT.

EVERYBODY IS TRYING TO GRAB HIM FROM THE SIDE.

WE SAW HIM BEFORE THE GAME, VERY IMPRESSIVE.

THE PHYSICAL DOWNHILL RUNNER.

>> Matt: THIS TIME THEY GET HIM ON THE GROUND.

GOOD JOB, TOOK ANOTHER BIG GUY EQUALLY BIG-TICKET HIM ON THE GROUND.

THAT WAS PATTILLO.

>> Wayne: GREAT JOB ON THE LAST PLAY.

BOOKER ON THE AND SPOT GETTING INTO THE LEGS.

I LOVE HOW YOU ASKED HIM ABOUT BEING --HE HAD NO IDEA.

ABOUT THE NIGERIAN NIGHTMARE FROM KANSAS CITY.

>> Matt: NOT QUITE AS BIG AS CHRISTIAN BUT THE SAME CONCEPT.

>> Wayne: WATER SOCIAL PLAYER HE IS WHEN YOU THINK ABOUT JB VEE.

HERE HE SELDOM DO YOU SWITCH AT THE LYMAN ORDER RUN THE BALL IN AN EMPTY BACKSIDE.

IT'S NOT LIKE HE'S THE FULLBACK.

ONE BACK SET BY THE QUARTERBACK AND THAT IS A KIND OF TALENT THAT YOUNG MAN POSSESSES WITH THE SPEED AND ATHLETICISM.

>> Matt: SECOND DOWN AND 15.

THANKS GOES TO THE AIR AND MISSES HIS TARGET.

TERRIOUS FAVORS WAS HIS TARGET.

TERRIOUS FAVORS, FAR AND AWAY THE TOP PASS CATCHER.

NUMBER THREE IN 2A FOOTBALL.

NUMBER ONE IN THE REGION.

GOT THE OFFERS HOLDING UP FOR THE ATHLETE.

MARSHALL, WESTER KENTUCKY, AMONG HIS SEVEN.

THERE WILL BE MORE COMING.

>> Wayne: A DYNAMIC TWO-WAY PLAYER.

THE BIG TERM IS TO FIND A TRAVIS HUNTER TYPE OF GUY THAT CAN DOMINATE ON BOTH SIDES OF THE BALL.

FROM RECEIVER TO CORNER.

>> Matt: COACH MYLES TOLD HIS TEAM THAT HE WAS THERE TRAVIS AND THEY LEFT TO HIM.

THANKS.

FAIRLEY IS COMING IN.

>> Wayne: GREAT JOB BY FAIRLEY.

KALEB JACKSON.

A SMALL HESITATION HERE, DIDN'T LIKE WHAT HE SAW DOWN THE FIELD.

MIDDLE OPENS UP AND TRIES TO GET A SIGH.

JACKSON, GRABBING HIM.

WOOTEN GRABBING HIS FEET AND BRINGING DOWN THE BLUE JERSEYS.

PLAYING AT A LEVEL THE COACH EXPECTED THEM TO.

THEY SAID THEY WERE GOING TO PLAY AT A HIGH LEVEL.

>> Matt: I LIKE WHAT WE SEE OUT OF FAIRLEY.

OFFERED BY WESTERN MICHIGAN.

SAW THEM MIDWEEK.

THEY WERE OFF TO A FOUR-SILVER --4-0 START.

HE MIGHT BE HEADING FOR THE DEFENSIVE LINE.

>> Wayne: EXPLOSIVE TO GET INTO THE PASS RUSH.

ONLY A SOPHOMORE.

COULD HAVE A GROWTH SPURT AND FOUND HIMSELF AT 604.

>> Matt: BACKS INTO THE 40.

ZACH SMITH BACK TO TAKE THE PUNT.

WATCHES IT GO BY.

DOWN AT THE 20.

THAT WAS A 40 YARD KICK.

LET'S CHECK IN WITH HANNAH.

>> WATER GAME.

BOTH TEAMS MAKE HALF-TIME ADJUSTMENTS, WE WILL HAVE THE REGIONS HALFTIME SHOW.

WE WILL UNVEIL THIS WEEK'S NOMINEE FOR MAKE THAT KID AN OFFER.

WE WILL HEAR FROM EXECUTIVE DIRECTORS AND LOOK AROUND THE STATE WITH THE SCORES.

SEVEN REGION TITLES ON THE LINE.

TOP 10 TEAMS ARE PLAYING, TOO.

>> Matt: THANK YOU.

WHAT'S INTERESTING ABOUT 2A FOOTBALL, YOU IN A REGION TITLE BUT YOU DO NOT GET AUTOMATIC NUMBER ONE SEED.

1A, 3A, PRIVATE, BEING SEATED BY POWER RANKINGS.

HARRIS, CUT DOWN BEFORE GETTING AROUND THE EDGE.

NICE TACKLE BY JOHNSON.

YOU SEE CARVER-ATLANTA, HAPEVILLE CHARTER, TIGHT.

5-0.

WHAT'S INTERESTING, --WILL BE PLAYING IN THE PRIVATE SCHOOL BRACKET.

THEY WILL EVEN COMPETE WITH THEIR OWN RIVALS IN THE AA BRACKET.

>> Wayne: DON'T BRING THE SUBJECT UP TO COURT GORDON.

HE DEFINITELY HAD A THEORY.

THEY SHINED ABOVE ANYONE IN THE 2A DIVISION AND SHOULD BE RANKED HIGHER.

>> Matt: THREE LOSSES CAME ON THE ROAD.

LEE COUNTY.

FIVE A.

HE WAS WONDERING HOW IT WAS NOT GOOD ENOUGH FOR A BETTER POWER RANGER.

I WILL LEAVE THAT TO THE EXPERTS.

I COULD NOT GIVE AN ANSWER.

MICHAEL JOHNSON, MAKING THE TACKLE.

BROOKS, GETS STOPPED.

>> Wayne: CREATING THIRD AND LONG.

CARVER-ATLANTA OFFENSE HAS TO GET OFF THE FIELD.

HAPEVILLE CHARTER IS VERY CONTENT POINT INTO THE HALF.

THEY ARE UP BY SEVEN.

THEY ARE MILKING THE CLOCK.

TURN THE LEAVE NO TIME FOR CARVER-ATLANTA ON OFFENSE TO HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE BALL BEFORE THE HALF.

>> Matt: SCOREBOARD CLOCK GOES UNDER ONE MINUTE LEFT.

WAITING TO SEE IF THAT IS THE OFFICIAL TIME WHICH I BELIEVE IS BEING KEPT ON THE FIELD BECAUSE OF CLOCK ISSUES.

CRAWFORD THROWING.

IT IS CAUGHT AT THE 40.

SOMEHOW HE WAS ABLE TO THREAD THE NEEDLE.

JACKSON COMES UP WITH A HUGE CATCH WITH THE TOUCHDOWN CATCH EARLIER.

>> Wayne: GREAT JOB ONCE AGAIN I CRAWFORD.

MOVING AROUND IN THE POCKET.

THROWING IT WITH TWO RECEIVERS IN THE SAME SPOT.

ONE YOUNG MAN RAN THE WRONG ROUTE BUT JACKSON MAKING A BIG CATCH.

I THINK WE HAVE A FOUL?

>> Matt: 21 YARD PASS COMPLETION THREADING THE NEEDLE TO GET IT TO JACKSON.

NOW TECH DOWN 15.

PUTS THE BALL TO THE 44.

CLOCK READS 36.

6 SECONDS TO PLAY.

CRAWFORD, GETS IT OUT OF THERE QUICKLY.

HE OVERTHROWS THIS TIME.

>> Wayne: GREAT JOB GOING ON THE RUN.

OVERTHROWING HIM.

A GOOD STOP ROUTE ON THE EDGE.

TRYING TO SET UP A HAIL MARY PASS.

TRY TO GET A FEW EXTRA YARDS ON THE FIELD.

>> Matt: CARSON DILL IS THE KICKER.

I THINK THERE PROBABLY WILL BE COMFORTABLE WITH 30.

CRAWFORD WILL TAKE A LOSS WITH GREAT PENETRATION BY THE CARVER-ATLANTA DEFENSE.

GREAT JOB COMING UNDER THE BLOCK TO MAKE THAT PLAY TO GET CRAWFORD DOWN.

TIMEOUT HAS BEEN CALLED BY HAPEVILLE CHARTER.

I BELIEVE THAT WAS THE LAST ONE.

IF THEY HAD DESIGNS TO THROW IN THE MIDDLE AND SET UP A FIELD GOAL, THAT PROBABLY GOES BY THE WAYSIDE NOW WITH NO TIMEOUTS REMAINING.

>> Wayne: NO SURPRISE HERE.

AS A KIND OF PLAN YOU CAME IN WITH.

RIGHT NOW THEY ARE UP.

THE KIND OF GAME THAT HAPEVILLE CHARTER WANTED TONIGHT.

WHEN YOU PLAY DEFENSIVE GAME YOU LOOK FOR 17 POINTS AND RELY ON DEFENSE.

>> Matt: THAT PLAY NEVER WORKS.

JUST ASK THE CHICAGO BEARS.

>> Wayne: I DON'T THINK YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO TALK TO THE FANS WHILE PLAY IS GOING ON.

FOOTBALL HAS BECOME INTERESTING WITH PLAYS LIKE THAT.

>> Matt: CRAWFORD SCRAMBLES TO HIS LEFT.

THAT MIGHT BE THE FINAL PLAY OF THE HALF RATE THERE?

>> Wayne: GREAT PURSUIT BY BROWN ON THE EDGE.

HE AND QUINTON MOSS ABLE TO RALLY TO GET CRAWFORD DOWN.

ABILITY TO LOOK DOWN THE FIELD TO TRY A HAIL MARY.

THAT IS THE END OF THE HALF.

7-6 LEAD FOR HAPEVILLE CHARTER.

THEY SEEK THE FIRST REGION CHAMPIONSHIP SINCE 2019.

A PRETTY EXTRAORDINARY JOB BY COACH GORDY AND HIS STAFF TO PUT TOGETHER AN OFFENSE GOOD ENOUGH TO GET A 7-6 LEAD AND A DEFENSE THAT STONEWALLED CARVER-ATLANTA.

TIME FOR THE HALFTIME INTERVIEW.

IT IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY JOHNNY'S PIZZA.

ORIGINAL NEIGHBORHOOD PIZZERIA.

>> THE FIRST QUARTER THEY HAVE PROBLEMS ADJUSTING BUT THE NEXT ONE LOOSEN THINGS UP.

DIANE IS DOING A GOOD JOB.

WE ARE TO WORK WITH HIM AND MAKE IT SIMPLIFIED.

HE WILL BE FINE.

THEY HAVE BEEN IN CARVER-ATLANTA'S EARS THE ENTIRE FIRST HALF.

>> YOU WERE BRAGGING ABOUT THE ATHLETICS AND ACADEMICS.

YOU ARE LEADING CHARTS.

HOW MANY HAVE BEEN CLINCHED?

>> ALL BUT SEVEN.

THAT SUCH AN EASY'S -- >> WE HAVE BEEN TALKING ABOUT REGION ONE, 6A.

LOTS OF MATH WAS INVOLVED.

ULTIMATELY PULLED IT OUT.

THE COACH CALHOUN WAS TAKING A BYE WEEK.

SHOUT OUT.

HE'S NEVER HAD A BYE WEEK LIKE THIS BEFORE.

HERE'S WHAT HE HAD TO SAY.

>> IS BY WEEK IS A PERFECT TIMING FOR US.

WE TRULY ARE GOING TO TRY TO REST AS MUCH AS WE CAN.

I'M GOING TO LAST PRACTICE THIS WEEK THAN I EVER HAVE ON ANY BY WEEK.

WEDNESDAY, THURSDAY, LIFT HEART A COUPLE DAYS, BUT THE REHAB GUYS AS MUCH AS THEY CAN.

GIVING THEM OFF MONDAY, TUESDAY, FRIDAY.

ACADEMIC HELP OR REHAB OR TRULY RESTING UP BECAUSE THE NEXT BY WEEK IS WHEN THE SEASON IS OVER WITH.

>> NO, WE HAVE STUFF GOING ON.

I GOT A MESSAGE FROM CHAD THAT I'M SUPPOSED TO PASS ON THE HANNAH.

HE SAID TO TELL HANNAH THAT THE TEAM THAT TACKLES THE MAN WITH THE BROWN THING AND THE TEAM THAT PUTS THE BROWN THING THROUGH THE YELLOW THING WILL WIN EVERY WEEK.

TED CHEATHAM, HE HAS A BYE WEEK.

>> CONTEXT -- FOR ABOUT FRIDAYS PODCAST AND I ASKED THE COACH TO GIVE ME THE KEYS TO THE GAME, -- WHAT ELSE IS GOING ON?

WHAT ABOUT THE FITZGERALD GAME?

>> THAT IS AMAZING.

WILCOX IS ANOTHER ONE.

IF YOU HAD THE CHANCE TO READ THE COLUMN I HAD THIS WEEK TOURING THE STATE, CAUGHT UP WITH ROB STOWE.

THE HEAD COACH OF WILCOX COUNTY.

RUNNING SOME GOOD SMACK ON EACH OTHER.

IT WAS FUN TO LOOK AT THE TWO OF THEM.

ONE TOLD THE OTHER, DON'T PRACTICE.

YOU HAVE NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT.

THE OTHER SAID THE SAME THING.

>> STARTING NEXT WEEK WE HAVE THE SHOW AFTER THE GAME.

SEAN AND I WILL BE IN STUDIO BREAKING IT DOWN.

WE HAVE TO GO.

THAT IS IT.

MORE TO COME FROM CARVER-ATLANTA AND HAPEVILLE CHARTER.

SEE YOU AFTER THIS.

>>> GETTING READY FOR THE START OF THE THIRD QUARTER.

TIME NOT ASCENDED DOWN TO THE FIELD FOR THE COACHES INTERVIEW DELIVERED BY JOHNNY'S PIZZA.

>> LET'S SEE WHAT COACH MYLES HAS TO DELIVER?

YOU ARE RANKING THIS WORSE OR NEXT TO WORSE IN THE FIRST HALF THE SEASON.

IN THAT IS RIGHT.

WE HAVE NOT PLAYED FORCING THE BALL LIKE WE NORMALLY DO.

NOT PLAYING AT THE CARVER-ATLANTA STANDER.

I EXPECT A DIFFERENT TEAM THE SECOND HALF.

>> DEFENSIVELY, HOW DIFFICULT IS IT TO ADJUST TO A QUARTERBACK SITUATION WHERE THEY ARE ROTATING IN AND OUT AND YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT TO EXPECT?

IN THE END OF THE DAY IT IS ABOUT FOOTBALL.

ADJUSTMENTS SHOULD NOT HURT US.

WE ARE NOT PLAYING UP TO THE STANDARD WE HAVE TO TAKE CARE OF BUSINESS.

>> WE WILL SEE THAT THE SECOND HALF.

THAT IS COACH MYLES AND THAT'S WHAT HE HAS TO DELIVER.

>> Matt: THAT IS A MOST SHOCKING THING ABOUT THE FIRST HALF.

THE FACT THAT CARVER-ATLANTA COULD NOT GENERATE OFFENSE.

ONLY A COUPLE HIGHLIGHTS TO SHOW YOU.

THE FOURTH-DOWN TOUCHDOWN CATCH BY JACKSON.

CRAWFORD.

THE ENSUING KICKOFF.

>> Wayne: BIG-TIME PLAYED BY THE BIG-TIME PLAYER.

OUT IN SPACE THERE FOR A KICKOFF RETURN FOR THE TOUCHDOWN TO GET HIS TEAM BACK IN THE GAME.

>> Matt: 72 YARD RETURN.

GETTING READY TO START THE SECOND HALF.

27 YARDS OF TOTAL OFFENSE FOR THE CARVER-ATLANTA TEAM THAT IS AVERAGING 37 POINTS PER GAME.

>> Wayne: ZERO PASSING YARDS FOR CARVER-ATLANTA.

THE WAY THEY HAVE BEEN ABLE TO THROW THE BALL DOWN THE FIELD WITH THE OUTSTANDING QUARTERBACK, THANKS, THAT IS SHOCKING IN THE HALF ZERO YARDAGE PASSING.

EXECUTION IS COACH MYLES TALKED ABOUT HAS BEEN KEY.

THEY HAVE NOT EXECUTED OFFENSIVELY.

DEFENSE KEPT THEM IN THE GAME.

>> Matt: JV --MONTAVIOUS BANKS HAVING A CARSON BACK FIRST HALF.

A COUPLE INTERCEPTIONS.

NOT FROM ONE IN HIS CAREER.

NOT HERE IN HIS SENIOR SEASON.

NUMBER THREE IN 2A.

THEY TOTALLY SHUT DOWN THE CARVER-ATLANTA OFFENSE.

>> Wayne: ON THE EDGE BY HAPEVILLE CHARTER, SEEMS TO HAVE THROWN MONTAVIOUS BANKS OFF OF WHERE HE USUALLY LIKES TO GO DOWN THE FIELD WITH THE BIG PLAYS.

CAN YOU SHOW SOME PATIENCE?

COACH GORDON TALKED ABOUT CARVER-ATLANTA AND OFFENSE, THEY WANT TO LIVE ON THE BIG PLAY.

MAKE THEM DRIVE THE FIELD.

RIGHT NOW THEY ARE NOT REALLY EFFICIENT ENOUGH TO DRIVE THE BALL.

THEY HAVE TO BE PATIENT.

THEY NEED TO LET THE BIG PLAYS COME.

>> Matt: THIRD-QUARTER KICKOFF BROUGHT TO YOU BY HEADS OF GEORGIA.

PARK YOUR PHONE WHILE DRIVING, IT SAVES LIVES.

THE KICK IS COMING DOWN AT THE 25.

ZACH SMITH, REVERSES DIRECTION AND GOES TO THE NEAR SIDELINE.

ZACH SMITH, OUT OF BOUNDS.

AT THE 46.

A FLAG IS OUT.

WE WILL CHECK THE PENALTY CALL AFTER THE 22 YARD RETURN BY ZACH SMITH.

>> Wayne: GREAT JOB OF REVERSING.

THEY WILL GET A HOLDING CALL HERE.

GREAT JOB INITIALLY WITH THE CUTBACK SPEED TO GET TO THE EDGE.

THERE THEY WILL CALL THAT HOLDING.

CRAWFORD, OUT ON THE EDGE.

NOT LETTING THE COVERAGE MAN LOOSE TO MAKE THAT PLAY.

WE HAVE A PLAYER DOWN ON THE SIDELINE.

>> Matt: I THINK IT IS A CRAMP?

JEREMIAH TAYLOR.

THE STARTING SAFETY.

IS GETTING HIS LEGS STRETCHED OUT SO IT LOOKS LIKE IT'S NOT SERIOUS.

>> Referee: HOLDING.

BLUE.

81.

FIRST DOWN.

>> Matt: THEY SAY HE CAN GET OFF THE FIELD UNDER HIS OWN POWER.

BAD SIGN FOR HAPEVILLE CHARTER AS THEY RETURN TO THE 46.

THEY GET PUSHED BACK TO THE 29.

>> Wayne: ONLY SEVEN POINTS ON THE BOARD FOR HAPEVILLE CHARTER.

THE KIND OF GAME THEY EXPECTED.

THEY CAME FROM ONE OF THOSE UGLY GAMES WHERE YOU FIND A WAY TO WIN AT THE END.

NO STYLE POINTS.

YOU TALK ABOUT THE INJURIES THEY HAVE HAD, BIG-TIME RUNNING BACK, HENDERSON, KJ POPE, THE STARTING QUARTERBACK, LEADING LASTLY.

BROOKS AND CRAWFORD, PLAYING RECEIVER.

RUNNING BACK.

OUT ON THE EDGE.

THEY ARE DOING EVERYTHING THEY CAN TO TAKE HOME THE REGION CHAMPIONSHIP.

>> Matt: IS EXTRAORDINARY GIVEN HOW THEY HAVE HAD TO ADAPT.

THEY HAVE THE LEAD AS THEY START THE THIRD.

THROWN TO BROOKS.

A FLAG COMES OUT.

LATAIOUS STEPP GETTING THE TFL.

>> Wayne: A FLARE ROUTE TO THE OUTSIDE.

BROOKS AND CRAWFORD INTO THE BACKFIELD.

A LOT MORE IN THE SECOND QUARTER.

GET OUT ON THE EDGE.

TRYING TO MAKE SOMETHING HAPPEN THERE.

I BLOCK IN THE BACK BY WEAVER.

NUMBER 13.

WEAVER, THE WIDE RECEIVER GETTING THE NFL TREATMENT.

IF WE WILL PAT A KID ON THE BACK FOR SCORING A TOUCHDOWN, THAT IS PART OF IT.

>> Wayne: A BAD PENALTY FOR WEAVER.

THIS OFFENSE CANNOT DEAL WITH LONG SITUATIONS.

SOME OF THE QUARTERBACK KEEPER WHICH HAS BEEN THE STAPLE OF THE OFFENSE TONIGHT.

THAT WAS BROOKS ON THE CARRIER THAT TIME.

>> Wayne: NICE JOB BY BROOKS.

WILLINGNESS TO RUN BETWEEN TACKLES.

WE HAVE SEEN CRAWFORD MORE ON THE EDGE ON THE QUARTERBACK DRAWS.

HE TRIES THE BALANCE IT OUTSIDE.

BROOKS IS WILLING TO PUT HIS SHOULDER DOWN AND HIS FOOT ON THE GROUND TO GET UPFIELD.

>> Matt: SECOND DOWN AND 12.

I BELIEVE IT IS A LOT MORE THAN THAT.

THE LINE TO GAIN IS THE 39.

IT IS MORE LIKE SECOND AND 17, I THINK?

CRAWFORD WILL DUMP IT TO HARRIS.

HARRIS IS UP TO THE 31.

>> Wayne: GOOD JOB GETTING ON THE EDGE WITH HARRIS.

CRAWFORD, KEEPING THE BALL IN PLAY.

GOOD BLOCK ON THE FIELD BY JACKSON.

TRUMAN THIRD DOWN AND SEVEN.

AFTER THAT EIGHT YARD PICKUP.

>> Wayne: CRAWFORD -- THEY SENT HIM BACK ON THE FIELD.

WE SAW BROOKS BE MORE OF THE QUARTERBACK IN THE THIRD AND LONGS.

CRAWFORD MADE A LOT OF GOOD PLAYS ON THE MOVE.

>> Matt: HAVE A RUSH.

CRAWFORD LOVES IT UP, INCOMPLETE.

TRYING TO GET THE BALL TO HARRIS IN A DANGEROUS PLAY.

ENGLISH, COMING BACK AFTER MISSING A COUPLE GAMES WITH A CONCUSSION.

NEARLY HAD AN INTERCESSION.

>> Wayne: NICE READ.

TRYING TO SET UP THE SCREEN TO HARRIS.

ENGLISH, READING THE PLAY ALL THE WAY.

NOWHERE FOR CRAWFORD TO DELIVER THE BALL TO HARRIS.

>> Matt: THIS IS A POSITIVE.

I DON'T WANT TO JUMP THE HORSE BUT A GOOD CHANCE TO FLIP THE FIELD TO GET A START IN HAPEVILLE CHARTER TERRITORY.

A LOW SNAP PICKED UP OFF THE GROUND.

A LITTLE RUSH.

IS GOING TO HIT AT THE 40.

I DID NOT WANT TO JUMP BECAUSE IT WOULD END UP ROLLING DAD AT THE 20 DID YOU HAVE TO COME UP TO MAKE THAT PLAY.

>> Wayne: PLENTY OF AIR FOR THE RETURN MAN TO GO SAVE ABOUT 17 YARDS.

GREAT FIELD POSITION.

GREAT JOB BY THE HUNTER, WILLIAMS.

GETTING THE BALL A LITTLE ROLLED DOWN THE FIELD.

>> Matt: EVEN IF YOU MAKE THE CATCH YOU WILL HAVE FILLED POSITION AFTER 40.

IF YOU HAVE A RETURN YOU MIGHT HAVE ON THE PLUS SIDE OF 50.

INSIDE YOUR BACK AT THE 20 BECAUSE YOU WERE NOT AGGRESSIVE.

>> Wayne: HOW CAN CARVER-ATLANTA OFFENSE FINE ENERGY?

SETTLE DOWN AND EXECUTE.

ONE THING WE SAW IN THE FIRST HALF, QUARTERBACK, TWO INTERCEPTIONS.

0 FOR 4.

NOT THE PRODUCTION WE THOUGHT MONTAVIOUS BANKS WOULD HAVE.

>> Matt: CAME IN COMPLETING 73.

4% PASSES THIS SEASON.

UP THE MIDDLE.

STRAIGHT UP THE MIDDLE.

DRAG DOWN AT THE 20.

THERE IS A FLAG DOWN AT THE 27.

THE FIRST TIME WE HAVE SEEN HIM GET THE BALL TONIGHT.

TWO TO A READ OPTION.

GREAT LOCKING UP FRONT BY THE OFFENSIVE LINE.

SCOTT, THE SENIOR, A COMBO BACK THAT THEY USE.

--POWER UP THE MIDDLE OF THE FIELD.

I THINK THEY WILL GET JACKSON A FACEMASK.

I DON'T KNOW IF THEY ARE PICKING IT UP?

IT LOOKED LIKE IT WOULD BE A FACEMASK ADDED ON.

>> Matt: THEY ADDED ONTO THE RUN.

OR THEY WILL.

THE BALL IS SPOTTED DOWN AT THE 26.

I THINK NOW THEY WILL ADD THE YARDAGE?

>> Referee: FACEMASK.

BLUE.

FIRST DOWN.

>> Matt: THEY CONTINUE TO MARK IT OFF.

IT WILL GIVE CARVER-ATLANTA THE BALL.

AT THE 13.

SCOTT, A HUGE RUN TO GET THE OFFENSE JUMPSTARTED FOR CARVER-ATLANTA EARLY.

FIRST AND 10 FROM THE 13.

THE HANDOFF GOES TO THE TEREUS STEP.

THE TOUCHDOWN.

>> Wayne: TWO BIG RUNS.

THE CARVER-ATLANTA OFFENSE ON THE STRIPY OF THE FIRST DRIVE OF THE SECOND HALF, REZONE.

GETTING TO THE HOUSE SIDE WITH THE TAPIA START.

BY THE RECEIVER.

SPRINGING HIM IN FOR THE TOUCHDOWN.

TERM OF THE FIRST LEAD OF THE NIGHT FOR CARVER-ATLANTA.

THEY WILL LINE UP AND GO FOR TWO.

SNAP BY MONTAVIOUS BANKS.

WAITING ON IT.

HE WAS NOT READY FOR IT.

THE TWO-POINT CONVERSION FAILS FOR THE SECOND TIME FOR CARVER-ATLANTA.

A BIG RUN BY SCOTT, FOLLOWED BY THE TOUCHDOWN RUN BY STEP.

>> Matt: WILCOX AND TELFAIR REGION TITLE IN THE VILLAS.

WILCOX LEADING.

SWAMP WERE GOING INTO THE THIRD.

CARVER-ATLANTA HAD 40 YARDS RUSHING BEFORE THE 50 YARD RUN BY SCOTT THAT WAS FOLLOWED BY THE TOUCHDOWN RUN BY LATAIOUS STEPP.

YOUR SCORING DRIVE WAS TO PLACE, 80 YARDS FOR THE HAD A 15 YARD PENALTY TACKED ON IN THE MIDDLE.

COACH MYLES TEAM PLAYING WITH THE LEAD FOR THE FIRST TIME TONIGHT.

>> Wayne: COMMITTED TO THE FIRST DRIVE.

>> Matt: KICK ATTEMPT TAKEN FROM THE 16.

RIGHT UP THE MIDDLE.

WEAVER ON THE RETURN AS IT BRINGS IT UP CLOSE TO THE 47.

>> Wayne: GREAT JOB BY WEAVER.

THE ACCELERATION HERE, HE WILL ACCELERATE THROUGH IT AND PICK UP BIG YARDS FOR THIS OFFENSE.

GIVING THE OFFENSE GREAT FIELD POSITION.

THE SECOND DRIVE OF THE SECOND HALF.

>> Matt: THE WIDE RECEIVER.

29 YARD KICK RETURN THERE.

THEY PUT THE BALL DOWN AT THE 44.

FIRST AND 10 FOR THE HORNETS FROM THERE.

DOWN, 12-7 WITH NINE MINUTES TO PLAY.

THIRD QUARTER.

THE CHAMPIONSHIP ON THE LINE.

HAPEVILLE CHARTER CHINA WHEN THE FIRST SINCE WHEN IN CARVER-ATLANTA CHINA WOOD THE SIXTH REGION CHAMPIONSHIP IN THE PROGRAM.

THE 76 YEAR HISTORY SINCE 2017.

THAT WAS GLOVER ON THE CARRY.

THE FIRST TIME WE HAVE SEEN HIM GET THE BALL TONIGHT.

>> Wayne: GLOVER, DOWNHILL TRYING TO GET THE RUN GAME GOING.

CARVER-ATLANTA, SAFETY LINEBACKERS ARE GETTING CLOSER AND CLOSER TO THE LINE OF SCRIMMAGE.

TRYING TO STOP THE RUN GAME.

PLAYING MORE MAN ON THE EDGE.

TRAUMA THEY ARE IDENTIFYING HIM AS LINDA ROBERTS.

HE IS NOT LISTED AS A RUNNING BACK ON THE ROSTER.

GLOVER WAS LISTED AS NUMBER THREE RUNNING BACK ON THE DEPTH CHART WEARING 33.

WONDERING IF GLOVER HAS CHANGED OUTNUMBERS AND WEARING 32 TONIGHT?

WE WILL GET JON NELSON TO INVESTIGATE.

>> Wayne: THIRD AND LONG.

CARVER-ATLANTA, CREATING THE DISTANCE THEY WANT.

CONTINUING TO KEEP THE QUARTERBACKS HAVING TO MAKE PLAYS DOWN THE FIELD.

>> Matt: THIRD DOWN AND NINE.

THE BALL IS COVERED BY CARVER-ATLANTA.

CRAWFORD ON THE EXCHANGE, TRIED TO PULL IT ON THE RPO.

THE FUMBLE RECOVERY FOR THE PANTHERS IS WILLIAMS.

>> Wayne: MISCOMMUNICATION HERE BY QUARTERBACK AND RUNNING BACK, TRYING TO PULL THE BALL.

CRAWFORD.

GETTING ON THE EDGE ON THE RPO GAME.

YOU SEE THE BALL GETTING KNOCKED OUT, TRYING TO GET BACK ON IT.

A BIG BREAK FOR CARVER-ATLANTA AND DEFENSE.

GREAT FIELD POSITION, ONCE AGAIN, TO START THE SECOND DRIVE.

>> Matt: WE WILL SEE IF THE PANTHERS CAN TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THAT?

THAT IS THE FIRST TURNOVER FOR THE HORNETS TONIGHT.

FIRST AND 10 FOR THE PANTHERS.

THEY HAVE IT AT THE HAPEVILLE CHARTER 46.

ON THE RUN.

ABLE TO PICK UP CLOSE TO EIGHT ON THE PLAY AFTER IT LOOKED LIKE HE WAS CAUGHT IN THE BACKFIELD.

>> Wayne: NICE JOB BY LATAIOUS STEPP, ABLE TO GET OUT OF THAT TRAFFIC.

A LOT OF PRESSURE UP THE FIELD BY SCHUYLER.

LATAIOUS STEPP ABLE TO CUT THE BALL BACK TO THE MIDDLE OF THE FIELD TO MAKE BIG YARDS.

>> Matt: LATAIOUS STEPP, ONE OF THE MANY ON THIS TEAM OFFERED BY MOREHOUSE.

475 YARDS RUSHED.

THE RUNNING BACK BY COMMITTEE.

>> Wayne: A POSSIBLE CRIME SITUATION ONCE AGAIN BETWEEN TWO PLAYERS TO START THE SECOND HALF.

IT IS FAIRLEY COOL TONIGHT.

>> Matt: JACKSON, THE YOUNG MAN WHO IS BEING TREATED ON THE FIELD EARLIER.

HAD A PLAYER FOR CARVER-ATLANTA -- THE REGULAR SEASON HAS COME TO AN END.

WEEK 13 TO.

ROUTE 1 A PLAYOFFS BEGINS NEXT FRIDAY NIGHT.

WE WILL BE AT RADER VALLEY AS THE WALTON READERS WELCOME IN THE WILDCATS.

MAKING THE LONG TRIP FROM SOUTH GEORGIA TO TAKE ON WALTON THE FIRST ROUND OF THE PLAYOFFS.

WE WILL HAVE IT FOR YOU ON GPB NEXT FRIDAY NIGHT AT 7:30.

LET'S CHECK IN WITH JON.

>> WHEN IT COMES TO CRAMPING, GOING FROM ONE EXTREME TO ANOTHER FROM HOT TO COLD DURING A DAY LIKE THIS, DOES NOT CREATE A PROBLEM LIKE THIS IF YOU DON'T MONITOR MORE THAN NORMAL?

>> Wayne: RIGHT OUT OF HALFTIME YOU TYPICALLY ARE REFUELED.

YOU HAVE GOTTEN YOUR GATORADE AND HAD SOME FRUIT, THINGS LIKE THAT TO PUT THE NUTRIENTS BACK INTO YOUR BODY.

IT'S INTERESTING THAT WE HAD A PLAYER FOR EACH TEAM TO DEAL WITH CRAMPS ON A COOL NIGHT THIS EARLY IN THE SECOND HALF.

>> Matt: LATAIOUS STEPP ON THE RUN.

JUST GOT BACK TO THE LINE OF SCRIMMAGE.

JACKSON, OR HE HAD A BIG NIGHT.

SCORED THE HORNETS ONLY TOUCHDOWN ON THE LINE ON HIS BACK TOUCHDOWN GRAB IN FRONT OF THE END ZONE.

THIRD DOWN AND TWO.

SEVEN MINUTES TO PLAY IN THE THIRD.

MONTAVIOUS BANKS.

BOOKER WITH THE QUARTERBACK SACK AT THE 45.

>> Wayne: GREAT JOB BY BOOKER.

WORKING OFF THE END.

SO VERSATILE.

WE KNOW HOW GREAT HE IS AS OFFENSIVE TACKLE.

WATCH HOW HE PUSHES THE TACKLE OUT OF THE WAY.

MAKING PLAYS.

THE SIZE THAT THE COACH TALKED ABOUT.

WHAT A DISPLAY RIGHT THERE.

SEEMS LIKE HE MIGHT'VE BLOCKED THAT?

WHAT POWER HE SHOWED BEING ABLE TO GET OFF THAT BLOCK TO GET INSIDE AND BRING DOWN MONTAVIOUS BANKS.

>> Matt: ALREADY HAS AN OFFER FROM WESTERN MICHIGAN.

HE WILL GET A LOT MORE.

HE IS A GOOD-LOOKING LINEMAN.

COACH GORDON SAID HE WILL BE ALL WORLD.

ESPECIALLY IF IT KEEPS GROWING.

YOU CAN ALREADY SEE THAT HE COULD BE 300 BEFORE IT IS SAID AND DONE.

>> Wayne: WE WERE ON FIELD WITH HIM AND HE LOOKED LIKE A GOOD 270 OR BIGGER.

BIG BODY, LONG ARMS.

COMPLETE PACKAGE.

GOOD OFFENSIVE LINE.

CAN WE CONFIRM THAT GLOVER IS WEARING NUMBER 32.

NOT 33 THAT WAS ON THE CHART.

HE GOT A COUPLE CARRIES.

HAPEVILLE CHARTER IS BACK ON OFFENSE.

HARRIS FLIPS OUT ONE TACKLE AND RUNS INTO LATAIOUS STEPP.

>> Wayne: YOU GET THE FEELING WITH HAPEVILLE CHARTER, THIS IS AS FAR AS THEY WILL LET THE SCORE GAP.

HAVE TO STAY WITH THEIR OFFENSE AND ISSUES WITH INJURIES.

GOOD VISION BY HARRIS.

ABLE TO SEE THE BOUNCE TO THE OUTSIDE.

HE WILL GET THE FEELING THEY HAVE TO KEEP PACE NOW AND CONTINUE TO GET A COUPLE FIRST DOWNS.

PLAYFIELD POSITION UNTIL THE BIG BREAK COMES.

WE HAVE ANOTHER PLAYER DOWN.

IT LOOKS LIKE HARRIS IS DOWN.

JON TALKED ABOUT IT, CRAMPING.

IT'S EARLY IN THE HALF AND A LITTLE COOLER.

ALSO, THIS LATE IN THE SEASON.

YOU TYPICALLY HAVE GONE THROUGH THAT WINDOW OF CRAMPING.

>> Matt: IT WAS WARM AND MUGGY WHEN THE SUN WAS UP.

I THINK WHAT HAPPENED, IT HAPPENS WITH WHAT WE WEAR.

WE GET CAUGHT LOOKING AT THE CALENDAR AND WE OVERDRAW US.

WHEN IT IS 75 LIKE TODAY, PLAYERS ARE IN THE MINDSET THAT IT IS FALL AND I DON'T HAVE TO HYDRATE LIKE I DID AND THEY GET INTO A GAME LIKE THIS AND START SWEATING AND USING UP FLUIDS.

>> Wayne: YOU'RE USED TO BURNING MORE ENERGY AND YOU REPLACE IT.

NO YOU ARE NOT SO YOU THINK SINCE YOU ARE NOT SWEATING IN YOUR SHIRT IS NOT WET, YOU FORGET THAT YOU HAVE TO GET FLUIDS BACK IN.

>> Matt: FIRST AND 10.

CRAWFORD GOES TO THE AIR.

COMPLETE.

WILLIAMS.

>> Wayne: NICE JOB OF MAKING HIMSELF AVAILABLE.

A LITTLE SHALLOW ROUTE.

GETTING THE BALL OUT.

GOOD JOB MAKING HIMSELF AVAILABLE.

SHOWING THE NUMBERS TO CRAWFORD AS HE COMES ACROSS.

>> Matt: YOU HAVE TO GIVE CREDIT TO HAPEVILLE CHARTER.

THEY SIMPLIFIED THE GAMEPLAYING FROM DWIGHT, WHO IS THE OC, THE QUARTERBACK COACH.

GORDON, DOWLING IT BACK.

PASSES WILL BE SIMPLE AND RUNS WILL BE SIMPLE.

GLOVER GETTING ANOTHER CARRY.

GLOVER IS UP TO THE 38.

>> Wayne: NICE JOB OF PULLING BY FAIRLEY ON THE EDGE.

PULLING THE RIGHT TACKLE.

GLOVER, ON THE COUNTER PLAY.

NICE PULLING HIT BY CLARK.

TRY TO GET OUT ON THE EDGE TO GET THE BIG PLAY.

IF YOU ARE GLOVER YOU HAVE TO COVER THE BALL.

YOU CANNOT COVER IT UP.

CAN'T HAVE IT LIKE A LOSER FIRST.

GLOVER, THE FRESHMAN IN RUNNING BACK MEG BECAUSE OF THE ENTRY OF HENDERSON.

PLAY ACTION.

A MAN IS OPEN AND IT WAS MISS.

WEAVER, OPEN.

IT WOULD'VE BEEN A TOUCHDOWN.

>> Wayne: WEAVER WORKING AGAINST THE TERRIOUS FAVORS.

SKINNY POST, GETTING INSIDE OF TERRIOUS FAVORS.

ANOTHER HEARTBEAT BY CRAWFORD.

A LITTLE MORE PATIENCE.

HE COULD'VE DELIVERED THE BALL TO A BIG PLAY.

>> Matt: I AGREE.

>> Wayne: THE DISPLAY FOR THE ONE PLAY.

WHETHER A BIG PLAY DOWN THE FIELD, DEFENSIVE SCORE, BLOCK PUNT, SOMETHING WHERE IT IS A TOUCHDOWN AWAY.

14-17 DIFFERENTIAL.

TRAMMEL LOOK AT CRAWFORD.

DOWN TO THE 43.

THE BALL COMES OUT AT THE END OF THE PLAY.

RULED DOWN BY CONTACT.

20 YARD LINE BY CRAWFORD.

>> Wayne: QUARTERBACK DRAW ALL THE WAY FOLLOWING HIS BLOCKERS.

NOT THE BIGGEST OF RUNNERS.

ONLY 170.

I THINK IT WAS ON THAT SPIN.

>> Matt: TERRIOUS FAVORS STRICTER.

THEY MISSED THAT CALL.

>> Wayne: THAT BALL IS ON.

THAT WAS BEFORE CRAWFORD HIT THE TURF.

BIG BREAK FOR HAPEVILLE CHARTER.

>> Wayne: THE DEFENSE RIPPING OUT THAT BALL.

GOOD JOB OF CRAWFORD.

IT'S ALL ABOUT THE ACCELERATION OF GLOVER.

A LOT OF PENETRATION BY THE DEFENSIVE FRONT ON THAT PLAY.

POSITIVE YARDS RUNNING.

THAT IS WHAT THIS TEAM WILL HAVE TO HAVE.

>> Matt: SECOND DOWN AND FIVE.

BALL AT THE 38.

GLOVER, AGAIN.

>> Wayne: BROOKS IS IN.

CRAWFORD CATCHES HIS BREATH.

>> Matt: HOW ABOUT THEM LEANING ON THE FRESHMAN IN THE THIRD?

GAME ON THE LINE.

THEY HAVE SHOWN NO HESITATION TO GIVE THE BALL TO HIM.

>> Wayne: BOTH QUARTERBACKS ON THE RPO GAME DOING A GOOD JOB READING THAT.

OFFENSIVE LINE HAS TO CUT DOWN THE PENETRATION BY CARVER-ATLANTA.

THEY'RE DOING A GOOD JOB SO FAR IN THE SECOND HALF TO GET IN THE BACKFIELD.

>> Matt: THIRD AND FOUR COMING UP.

TIMEOUT HAS BEEN CALLED.

WE WILL STEP ASIDE.

>>> FRIDAYS IN GEORGIA PRESENTED BY THE GOVERNOR'S OFFICE OF HIGHWAY SAFETY, REMINDING YOU, HEADS UP GEORGIA, PARK YOUR PHONE WHILE DRIVING.

IT SAVES LIVES.

>>> MARGINS ARE STILL FIVE GOING AROUND THE STATE.

FITZGERALD LEADING, 21-7.

THAT IS IN THE FOURTH QUARTER.

SWAMP WORK, CLEANSE COUNTY.

DAN DICKERSON BACK, FIRST YEAR AS HEAD COACH LEADING CHARLTON COUNTY.

WILCOX EXTENDED LEAD, 22-12.

>> Matt: THIRD DOWN AND FOUR.

THE GAIN IS THE 33.

THIS IS A BIG DRIVE FOR HAPEVILLE CHARTER.

HAVE TO KEEP THE STICKS MOVING.

CRAWFORD KEEPS IT.

CRAWFORD HAS THE FIRST DOWN RIM -- >> Wayne: GREAT JOB OF CRAWFORD.

NITRATION, AGAIN.

BOUND, UP THE FIELD.

ALONG WITH JOHNSON.

>> Matt: NINTH PLAY OF THE DRIVE.

PRETTY IMPRESSIVE THEY ARE ABLE TO PUT TOGETHER A LONG DRIVE LIKE THIS GIVEN THE LACK OF EXPERIENCE THEY HAVE AT THE QUARTERBACK POSITION.

FIRST AND 10.

A HANDOFF TO GLOVER.

GLOVER PICKED UP ABOUT EIGHT.

COACH GORDON TOLD US IN THE RUNNING BACK COMMITTEE, I BELIEVE IN ALLEGIANCE TO EFFORT.

WHOEVER HAS THE HOT HAND WILL GET THE BALL.

GLOVER HAS BEEN THAT GUY HERE.

>> Wayne: HE KNEW HIS RUNNING BACK, HENDERSON.

SINCE THEN HE'S BEEN FISHING AND HE WILL GO WITH WHOEVER HE FEELS CAN GET THE JOB DONE ON A PARTICULAR NIGHT.

>> Matt: SECOND DOWN AND FOUR.

GLOVER AGAIN WITH ANOTHER GOOD RUN.

TACKLE MADE BY SMITH.

THAT'S ANOTHER FIRST DOWN.

>> Wayne: GRAY SURGE BY THE OFFENSIVE LINE.

THE FRESHMAN THERE, RUNNING BEHIND.

MAKING PEOPLE MESS.

>> Matt: TIMEOUT CALL BY HAPEVILLE CHARTER.

THAT WILL LEAVE THEM WITH ONE GOING INTO THE FOURTH.

>> Wayne: THE WHITE HOUSE SIGNAL IT WAS CARVER-ATLANTA.

JOAN DEFENSIVE LINE DOING A GREAT JOB FOR HAPEVILLE CHARTER ON THIS DRIVE.

REALLY OPENING UP HOLES AS A PUT TOGETHER A SUBSTANTIAL MARCH.

>> Wayne: THE ZONE READ TO THE RIGHT SIDE BEHIND TALENTED PLAYERS.

AS YOU SAID, IN THIS ORDER IT HAS BEEN GLOVER INSERTED.

WE SAW HARRIS AND MOORE IN THE FIRST HALF.

THE ABILITY OF CRAWFORD, EIGHT RUNS ON 29 YARDS.

THE ABILITY OF CRAWFORD TO POUR THE BALL ON THE EDGE IS STARTING TO PAY OFF.

>> Matt: A COMBINATION OF GLOVER.

IF NOT, CRAWFORD.

IF NOT CRAWFORD, GLOVER.

THAT IS IN THE OFFENSIVE STORY ON THIS DRIVE.

FIRST AND 10.

JUST OVER A MINUTE LEFT OF THE THIRD QUARTER.

THE BALL GOES TO ZACH SMITH.

STILL ON HIS FEET.

THE FIRST DOWN INSIDE THE TENT.

>> Wayne: WE HAVE SEEN HIM ON THE JETS SWEEPS.

IT WILL GO DOWN AS A PASS.

HIS ABILITY TO CUT BACK, WHAT A TALENT HE HAS SHOWN TO BE IN THIS GAME.

A BIG INTERCEPTION.

WE HAVE ANOTHER TIMEOUT.

>> Matt: LATAIOUS STEPP WAS DOWN BUT HIS BACKUP.

THERE HE IS.

LOOKS LIKE HE'S FAVORING HIS LEFT SHOULDER.

THEY HAVE TO GET HIM BACK ON THE FIELD.

HE HAD A BIG NIGHT DEFENSIVELY.

MORE SO THAN OFFENSIVELY.

I HAVEN'T DOWN FOR THREE TFL'S.

IS GONE 14 ON THE SEASON.

>> Wayne: HE IS RUNNING THE BALL FOR THIS TEAM, AS WELL.

>> Matt: THE HANDOFF GOES THE GLOVER.

INSIDE THE FIVE.

>> Wayne: LOOKS LIKE ANOTHER PLAYER IS DOWN.

QUINTON MOSS.

A BIG-TIME SURGE IN THAT BY HARRIS.

>> Matt: MOSS ALREADY MISSED FIVE GAMES THIS YEAR BECAUSE OF INJURY.

ONLY PLAYED IN FOUR OF NINE.

HE LOOKS LIKE HE IS IN SOME SERIOUS PAIN.

>> Wayne: PHYSICALITY OF THE HAPEVILLE CHARTER RUSHING ATTACK.

THIS IS WHAT WE THOUGHT TO GIVE THEM THE CHANCE TO WIN, THAT THEY WOULD HAVE TO DO.

AT SOME POINT IT WOULD HAVE TO TAKE CONTROL OF THE LINE OF SCRIMMAGE.

YOU CAN SEE THE GRIMACE ON HIS FACE.

THEY ARE LOOKING AT HIS KNEE.

>> Matt: 29 SECONDS LEFT OF THE THIRD.

I HATE TO SEE THAT FOR THAT YOUNG MAN.

HE BATTLED INJURIES ALL SEASON LONG.

LOOKS LIKE IS FACING ANOTHER.

NELLY REPORTED IT, IT LOOKS LIKE A FOG IS ROLLING IN ON THE FIELD.

>> IT IS AND IT LOOKS REALLY WEIRD.

>> Matt: THAT IS A GOOD ANGLE AT IT THERE.

THAT IS NOT A CAMERA AFFECT THAT YOU ARE LOOKING AT.

THAT IS ACTUALLY FOG ROLLING IN.

>> Wayne: SOMETHING YOU TYPICALLY WOULD SEE IN THE NORTHEAST.

>> Matt: WHILE HE CONTINUE TO TEND TO QUINTON MOSS, WE WILL STEP ASIDE.

>>> QUINTON MOSS WAS ABLE TO WALK OFF THE FIELD UNDER HIS OWN POWER.

HE TAKES A SEAT UNDER THE TENT.

HOPEFULLY THE INJURY IS NOT NEARLY AS BAD AS IT SEEMED TO BE AT THE MOMENT.

BACK TO LIVE ACTION.

SECOND DOWN ANGLE.

MIGHT BE THE FINAL PLAY OF THE THIRD.

YOU HAVE THE TFL MACHINE.

NO, THAT IS THE SAFETY LINED UP ON THE EDGE.

JEREMIAH TAYLOR.

IT LOOKS LIKE YOU MIGHT'VE HEARD HIMSELF TRYING TO SIGN ON THE BRAKES.

HE CAME ACROSS THE LINE.

THAT IS NOT HIM.

THAT IS, ENGLISH.

29, NOT, 28.

>> Wayne: WE DID SEE THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE LINE MOVE.

THE QUESTION, DID HE BREAK THE LINE OF SCRIMMAGE?

>> Matt: YOU CAN SEE THE PLAYERS, TEAMMATES TELLING HIM TO GET OFF THE FIELD BECAUSE HE OBVIOUSLY WAS HOBBLING.

THEY BRING A SUB IN FOR HIM.

I BELIEVE, JOHNSON HAS COME BACK.

THERE IS THE MOVEMENT OF FRONT BY THE OFFENSIVE LINEMAN, CLARK.

NOW IT IS SECOND DOWN AND GOAL TO AROUND THE EIGHT.

HIGH SNAP.

MOSS.

JADEN WAS MET THERE BY JOHNSON.

AND, LATAIOUS STEPP.

>> Wayne: A HIGH SNAP.

CRAWFORD HAVING TO GO.

THIS KIND OF FREED OPTION THROWING OFF THE TIMING.

YOU CAN SEE THE WHITE JERSEYS ABLE TO MAKE THE ADJUSTMENT PULLED TO THE RIGHT AND HIGH.

GOOD JOB I CRAWFORD TO GET THE BALL DOWN.

WE HAVE ANOTHER PLAYER DOWN HERE.

>> Matt: THAT IS ANOTHER CRAMP.

>> Wayne: I DID RECEIVE INFORMATION, ANXIETY CRAMS ARE THINGS THAT ALSO OCCUR NOW WITH A LOT OF PLAYERS.

IT IS NEW TO ME.

>> Matt: I WILL LEAVE IT UP TO YOU GUYS.

YOU ARE THE EXPERTS.

WE HAVE HAD A RASH OF THEM IN THE SECOND HALF.

THERE IS NO DOUBT ABOUT THAT.

>> Wayne: WITH THIS MANY IN THIS GAME --GOOD GAME.

HIGH SCHOOL LEVEL.

ONE THING YOU HAVE TO IMAGINE, GETTING UP FOR THE GAME -- A LOT OF CAFFEINE PRODUCTS.

THAT DEFINITELY CAN CAUSE -- >> Matt: WE ARE DOWN TO 7.

6 SECONDS LEFT OF THE CORPORATE THEY ARE PLAYING FOR THE REGION FIVE 2A CHAMPIONSHIP.

CARVER-ATLANTA HAS WON SIX IN A ROW.

HAPEVILLE CHARTER WON FIVE IN A ROW.

BOTH ARE 5-0 IN THE REGION.

THEY BOTH BE LOVE IT.

THEY WERE RANKED TOP 10 EARLY IN THE AIR.

HOLY INNOCENTS, THEY WILL NOT BE PLAYING IN THE CLASS 2A PLAYOFFS.

THEY WILL PLAY IN THE PRIVATE CLASSIFICATION PLAYOFFS.

I'M SURE THEY WILL BE AMONG THE TEAMS THAT MAKE THAT FIELD.

AS JON ALLUDED TO, TOMORROW NIGHT THEY WILL ANNOUNCE THE SEEDS FOR THE 2A BRACKET.

THE MAXWELL PLAY OUT PROJECTIONS HAVE CARVER-ATLANTA PROJECTED AS A FOUR SEED ASSUMING THAT THEY WIN THIS GAME.

THEY WOULD PLAY LAKEVIEW.

ASSUMING THAT HAPEVILLE CHARTER LOSS, THEY WERE PROJECTED AS NUMBER 11.

WHAT DO YOU THINK, JON?

>> REMINDING THE OFFENSIVE LINE TO GIVE THE QUARTERBACK TIME ON THE PLAY LIKE THIS.

GIVE HIM TIME.

>> Wayne: YOU IMAGINE -- >> Matt: I THINK CARVER-ATLANTA HAS 12 ON THE FIELD UNLESS I'M COUNTING WRONG.

COMPLETE THE GLOVER.

HE GETS STOPPED INSIDE THE FIVE.

THE PANTHERS AND UP WITH HER.

THE PLANE WAS BLOWN DEAD.

LET'S GO BACK INTO A RECON.

I THOUGHT THEY MIGHT HAVE 12 ON THE FIELD.

THAT WAS --WHO CAME UP WITH THE BALL.

THAT IS THE END OF THE THIRD QUARTER.

WE WILL SORT THINGS OUT.

THERE IS THE PASS COMPLETION TO GLOVER.

THE BALL IS CLEARLY OUT BEFORE HE HITS THE GROUND.

DOWN AT THE TWO, AFTER RECOVERING THE FUMBLE.

IT WILL BE CARVER-ATLANTA'S BALL AT THE TWO WHEN WE COME BACK AND START THE FOURTH.

>>> CARVER-ATLANTA AVOIDING THE TOUCHDOWN SCORE BY HAPEVILLE CHARTER.

RECOVERING AT THE TWO YARD LINE.

FRIDAYS IN GEORGIA PRESENTED BY THE GOVERNOR'S OFFICE OF HIGHWAY SAFETY, REMINDING YOU, HEADS UP GEORGIA, PARK YOUR PHONE WHILE DRIVING.

IT SAVES LIVES.

MATT STEWART AND WAYNE GANDY, JON NELSON AND HANNAH WITH YOU.

>> Wayne: IT SEEMS IN THAT SET, ARE WE SURE THAT THEY GAVE THE BALL TO CARVER-ATLANTA?

IT LOOKED LIKE HAPEVILLE CHARTER HAD THEIR OFFENSE OUT ON THE FIELD.

IT LOOKS LIKE THEY HAVE THEIR OFFENSE ON THE FIELD.

THE BALL WAS GIVEN BACK TO THEM.

IT CLEARLY WAS A FUMBLE.

>> Matt: IT WASN'T EVEN CLOSE.

>> Wayne: THE SECOND TIME TONIGHT WE HAVE SEEN TWO FUMBLES.

LOOKS LIKE THERE ARE GOING TO -- >> Matt: HERE IS THE PLAY.

>> Wayne: THE BALL IS OUT BEFORE GLOVER HITS THE GROUND.

>> Matt: JAVONTE HOLT RECOVERED THE FUMBLE THAT THEY ARE GOING TO RULE THAT IT IS HAPEVILLE CHARTER'S BALL STILL THERE >> Wayne: A HUGE BREAK.

GLOVER CHINA PFEIFFER ACTUALLY YARDS.

IT CLEARLY IS OUT.

>> THE SIDE JUDGE AT THE END OF THE THIRD QUARTER WAS POINTING DOWN TO THE GROUND AT THE TWO.

THAT WAS BEFORE THEY MOVED TO THE OTHER END OF THE FIELD.

FOURTH DOWN.

HAPEVILLE CHARTER, AT THE TWO.

>> Matt: THE SIDE JUDGE WAS WRONG.

FOURTH AND GOAL FOR HAPEVILLE CHARTER.

THE HANDOFF GOES TO GLOVER.

GLOVER DID NOT GET IN.

LIKE THEY SAY, THE BALL DON'T LIE.

CARVER-ATLANTA WILL TAKE OVER.

>> Wayne: TOUGH DEFENSE BY CARVER-ATLANTA.

STOPPING THE RUN WAS THE NUMBER ONE MISSION TONIGHT.

NO BIGGER STOP HERE THEN ON THE FOURTH DOWN PLAY.

AT NO POINT DID THE BALL ACROSS THE GOAL LINE.

GLOVER TRYING TO JUMP OVER THE POWER AND GETTING CAUGHT IN THE AIR.

A WAVE OF LIGHT JERSEYS.

LED BY TERRIOUS FAVORS.

AND, TAYLOR.

WHAT A BIG STOP FOR THE CARVER-ATLANTA DEFENSE.

>> Matt: AND, UPON THEM TO TURN OUT YARDS AND EAT CLOCK AS WE ARE INSIDE THE FIRST FEW SECONDS.

IT WILL BE CLOSE TO A SAFETY.

IT IS GOING TO BE.

CARVER-ATLANTA COULD NOT RUN THE BALL OUT OF THE END ZONE.

HAPEVILLE CHARTER GETS THE SAFETY.

IT IS A THIRD SAFETY OF THE SEASON.

IT MAKES IT A 12-9 GAME.

>> Wayne: BIG PENETRATION, ABLE TO GET TO JAQUAVIOUS BRYANT BROWN BEFORE HE COULD GET STARTED.

LOOK AT THE PENETRATION OF THE BLUE JERSEYS.

FAIRLEY, ONCE AGAIN.

BIG-TIME PENETRATION.

YOU CAN SEE THE RIGHT TACKLE AND THE CENTER BEING PUSHED TO THE BACK FIELD.

NOWHERE FOR JAQUAVIOUS BRYANT BROWN TO GO.

WHAT A HUGE PLAY FOR FAIRLEY.

WE TALKED ABOUT HIM MULTIPLE TIMES TONIGHT.

YOUNG SOPHOMORE.

THE POTENTIAL HE HAS GOING FORWARD.

>> Matt: A NAME TO REMEMBER IN THE CLASS OF 2027.

FAIRLEY, COMING UP WAS SAFETY.

PLAYING BOTH WAYS STARTING ON OFFENSIVE LINE AND DEFENSIVE LINE AS QUARTERBACK SACK AND A SAFETY.

HAPEVILLE CHARTER DOES NOT GET THE TOUCHDOWN BUT THEY GET TWO.

NOW THEY WILL GET THE BALL BACK.

>> Wayne: BOTH TEAMS LINING UP ON THE WRONG SIDE OF THE FIELD ON THE SAFETY.

A LOT OF INTERESTING THINGS.

I TOLD YOU EARLIER TO THROUGHOUT THE BOOK AND WE WILL PLAY IT BY EAR TONIGHT.

GREAT EXCITEMENT FOR THIS REGION FIVE 2A CHAMPIONSHIP.

>> Matt: HERE COMES THE KICKOFF FROM CARVER-ATLANTA.

THEY ELECT TO KICK OFF THE TEE RATHER THAN PUNTS.

THAT IS AN OPTION.

DAVIS KICKS IT OUT OF BOUNDS.

YOU SET IT A FEW MOMENTS AGO, EVERYTHING IS ON THE TABLE TO -- TONIGHT.

GENTOO BIG BREAK FOR THE HAPEVILLE CHARTER TEAM.

THEY WILL START THIS DRIVE.

>> Matt: I THINK THEY WOULD KICK AGAIN?

ALREADY IN GREAT FIELD POSITION.

THEY WANT TO GET A RETURN OUT OF THIS.

>> Wayne: VERY SELDOM DO YOU TURN THE BALL DOWN.

INSIDE THE 15 P. M. ZACH SMITH.

WATCH OUT.

>> Matt: ZACH SMITH IS ALL WAY DOWN TO THE 25.

IT LOOKED LIKE IT WAS A BETTER DECISION.

NOW A FLAG IS OUT SO THEY MIGHT END UP ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE 50.

33 YARD RETURN BY ZACH SMITH.

>> Wayne: ZACH SMITH DOING A GREAT JOB RETURNING THE BALL.

GETTING UP FIELD.

ANOTHER DYNAMIC ATHLETE HE IS.

HE SEES THE HOLE AND HE WILL TURN UP FIELD.

NOT REALLY SURE WHERE THE HOLDING CALL WAS ON THAT PLEA?

>> Matt: THEY STILL END UP ON THE PLUS SIDE OF THE 50.

THE HAPEVILLE CHARTER OFFENSE GETS THE BALL BACK.

GOES TO OMARI HARRIS.

>> Wayne: THE KEY TO THIS OFFENSE, EVERY RUN, A COUPLE THROWS BY CRAWFORD TO KEEP THE DEFENSE HONEST.

IT'S A RUN BASE OFFENSE.

THE ISSUES THAT WE TALKED ABOUT AT THE QUARTERBACK POSITION.

HARRIS GETS A COUPLE MORE YARDS ON THE PLAY.

BRINGUP THIRD DOWN AND FIVE.

>> Matt: ANOTHER HIGH SNAP THE CRAWFORD HAS TO BRING DOWN.

THE TIMING THROWN OFF.

WHAT THAT DOES, THE HIGH SNAPS TAKES CRAWFORD'S EYES OFF THE DEFENSIVE END.

HE CANNOT READ THE PLAY IN THAT SITUATION.

HE HAS TO COME OUT TO GIVE THE BALL TO THE RUNNING BACK.

THE TIMING IS OFF FOR HIM TO READ THE DEFENSE.

>> Matt: THE LEIDEN TO GAIN IS 30.

CRAWFORD ON THE KEEPER.

SLIPS OUT OF A TACKLE.

NOT THAT ONE.

HE WAS KNOCKED FORWARD ON THE PLAY.

FOURTH DOWN.

>> Wayne: PENETRATION BY MICHAEL SPRINGER.

DRIVEN FORWARD BY JAQUAVIOUS BRYANT BROWN.

THE COACH WILL PLAY FIELD POSITION TO KEEP HIS TEAM WITHIN STRIKING DISTANCE.

TWO PLAYS AWAY AND HE CAN WIN.

HE CAME IN TO WIN.

JUST HAVE ONE MORE POINT THAN THE OPPONENT.

>> Matt: WILLIAMS RAN OUT OF THE FORMATION ON THE FIRST PUNT ATTEMPT OF THE NIGHT AND PICKED UP A FIRST DOWN.

IT'S COMING DOWN TO THE 20 AND TAKES A GOOD BOUNCE FOR HAPEVILLE CHARTER ROLLING INSIDE THE TENT.

DOWN TO THE EIGHTH.

PLAYING THE FIELD POSITION GAME AFTER THE 36 YARD PUNT BY WILLIAMS.

>> Matt: REGULATION THREE-POINT GAME.

LET'S TAKE THE TOUR TO LET YOU KNOW WHAT IS GOING ON.

TOUGH NIGHT FOR MONTAVIOUS BANKS.

FIRST AND 10 FOR CARVER-ATLANTA.

HANDOFF GOES TO SCOTT.

THE BIG 50 YARD RUN TO JUMPSTART CARVER-ATLANTA EARLY IN THE THIRD TO SET UP THE GO-AHEAD TOUCHDOWN BY LATAIOUS STEPP.

THAT IS JUST THE SECOND CARRIE BY SCOTT.

TONIGHT.

>> Wayne: GOOD JOB, ABLE TO BOUNCE THE BALL.

WILLIAMSON, GREAT PENETRATION.

LATAIOUS STEPP TO JOIN THE SPEED AND ABILITY TO GET TO THE EDGE.

>> Matt: SECOND DOWN AND THREE.

THAT WAS SCOTT.

I THINK I MISIDENTIFIED?

THAT IS SCOTT ON THE RUN.

HIS SECOND CARRIE.

>> Wayne: GOOD JOB BLOCKING A FRIEND BY THE OFFENSIVE LINE.

THAT FIRST DOWN.

WE HAVE SEEN BOTH TEAMS COME IN AND DECIDE TO PUT THE OLD LINES TO WORK IN THE SECOND HALF.

>> Matt: A TIMEOUT HAS BEEN CALLED AFTER CARVER-ATLANTA PICKS UP A FIRST DOWN.

WE WILL STEP ASIDE.

>>> CARVER-ATLANTA ON TOP OF HAPEVILLE CHARTER.

TOO MUCH EXCITEMENT FOR THAT YOUNG LADY TIME.

HERE IS A LOOK AT THE CARVER-ATLANTA RESUME.

TWO-TIME STATE FINALIST.

MOST LIKELY.

FIVE REGION CHAMPIONSHIPS.

76 SEASONS.

PROGRAM STARTED IN 1949.

SLIPPED BACK TO 2 AND 8 A YEAR AGO.

DIFFICULTIES IN 2023 WHEN THEY LOST BOTH OF THE COORDINATORS.

WHEN I SAY THAT THEY LOST THEM, THEY PASSED AWAY.

BELL, DIED DURING -- AND HAROLD PASSED AWAY, AS WELL.

UNIMAGINABLE DIFFICULT SEASON FOR CARVER-ATLANTA A YEAR AGO.

THE FUSE WINS SINCE 2011.

THEY BOUNCED BACK THIS YEAR.

7 AND 2, AS THEY BOUNCE BACK TONIGHT.

THE PASS IS OVERTHROWN.

LATAIOUS STEPP.

>> Wayne: BIG TIME PRESSURE BY CHRIS BOOKER.

RIGHT IN THE FACE OF MONTAVIOUS BANKS.

COULD NOT FIND LATAIOUS STEPP ON THE EDGE.

LATAIOUS STEPP OUT.

MORE ABILITY TO THROW AND DELIVER BECAUSE OF THE PRESSURE OF BOOKER.

>> Matt: CARVER-ATLANTA GENERATED TWO DOES HAVE.

WHEN THEY PICKED UP ON THIS DRIVE AND THE 50 YARD RUN BY SCOTT EARLIER.

ONE OF THE SCREEN PASS.

IT GOES TO TERRIOUS FAVORS.

OUT OF A TACKLE.

GOES DOWN TO THE 31.

TERRIOUS FAVORS COMES UP SHORT OF THE FIRST DOWN.

>> Wayne: GREAT JOB AFTER THE CATS BUY TERRIOUS FAVORS.

SHOWING THE NATURAL ABILITY HE HAS WITH THE BALL IN HIS HAND.

THIS GUY, YOU FIND A COUPLE WAYS TO GET TOUCHES.

HE IS A DIFFERENCE MAKER THAT THEY HAVE ON OFFENSE.

THAT'S THE FIRST PASS COMPLETION TO MONTAVIOUS BANKS TONIGHT.

AVERAGING 180 YARDS PASSING PER GAME.

NOW THEY HAVE TO PUNT IT BACK.

ROSE THAT AT THE THIRD ONE.

THAT IS WHERE HAPEVILLE CHARTER GOES BACK ON OFFENSE.

THAT'S A 38 YARD KICK TAE DAVIS.

CHARTER GOING BACK ON OFFENSE WITH 6:28 TO PLAY OF REGULATION.

THIS MIGHT BE THE LAST BEST CHANCE TO PUT TOGETHER A TOUCHDOWN DRIVE.

>> Wayne: THE BEST CHANCE WITH THE ABILITY TO RUN OFFENSE THE WAY THAT THEY WANT TO.

IS NOT AN OFFENSE YOU WANT TO FIND IN A TWO-MINUTE SITUATION.

>> Wayne: A HARD RUNNING HERE, TRYING TO MAKE SOMETHING BIG HAPPENED FOR HIS TEAM.

>> Matt: FIRST AND 10.

ALL AT THE 41.

HARRIS IS TACKLED IN THE BACKFIELD BY SPRINGER.

TAKING A LOSS ON THAT PLAY.

>> Wayne: PENETRATION BY SPRINGER.

OVER THE CENTER.

FAIRLEY IS DOWN.

THE BIG RIGHT TACKLE.

HE'S BEEN DOMINANT ON BOTH SIDES OF THE BALL TONIGHT.

>> Matt: HAPEVILLE CHARTER ALREADY DEALING WITH LOSSES OF THE QUARTERBACK.

POPE IS OUT WITH A SHOULDER ENERGY -- INJURY.

THEY MIGHT NEED A FORKLIFT TO GET THAT YOUNG MAN UP.

>> Wayne: LINE COACH IS HELPING.

YOU CAN SEE COACH GORDON LOOKING FOR SOME ANSWERS FOR ONE OF HIS TOP PLAYERS.

POSSIBLY MISSING THE REST OF THE GAME.

>> Matt: MISSED THE BEST FOR KENNY FAIRLEY.

HE PUT ON A PERFORMANCE TONIGHT PLAYING BOTH SIDES OF THE LINE OF SCRIMMAGE.

IS IT RAINING?

DO WE HAVE RAIN FALLING?

IS THAT JUST A MISTY FOG?

IT LOOKS LIKE IT IS GETTING WET IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FIELD.

THE BALL GOES TO SMITH.

HE DROPS IT.

IT LOOKS LIKE IT IS KIND OF GETTING WET IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FIELD.

DOESN'T IT?

>> Wayne: I SAW THE FOG EARLIER THERE.

GOOD JOB OF CRAWFORD GETTING THE BALL ON THE EDGE.

ZACH SMITH COULD NOT COME DOWN WITH THE CATCH.

>> Matt: I THINK IT IS CONDENSATION FROM THE FOG AS WE HAD A HOT DAY.

THIRD DOWN AND 11 FOR HAPEVILLE CHARTER.

REALLY NEED A FIRST DOWN.

CRAWFORD GOES UP TOP.

A MAN WIDE OPEN.

WEAVER.

A RACE TO THE END ZONE.

TOUCHDOWN, HORNETS!

>> Wayne: WE SAW THIS EARLIER IN THE GAME.

THIS TIME CRAWFORD IS TAKING THE HEARTBEAT.

AIRING IT OUT DOWN THE FIELD TO WEAVER.

GREAT PROTECTION.

DROPPING IT IN THE BUCKET FOR THE BIG-TIME RECEIVER DOWN THE FIELD.

MAKING A HOUSE CALL AND PUTTING HIS TEAM UP IN A BIG WAY.

>> Matt: 60 YARD TOUCHDOWN RECEPTION BY WEAVER ON THE TOUCHDOWN PASS FROM ZION CRAWFORD.

ANOTHER IMPORTANT PAT TO MAKE IT FOUR POINT GAME.

KARSON, THE KICKER.

PUTS IT UP AND IN.

16-12.

IT DID NOT GO IN.

I THOUGHT IT WENT THROUGH?

>> Wayne: IT WAS SHORT.

>> Matt: THE PAT WAS SHORT?

60 YARD TOUCHDOWN PASS TO WEAVER.

HE GOT BEHIND THE DEFENSE.

NOW IT IS A THREE-POINT LEAD FOR HAPEVILLE CHARTER.

>> Matt: 60 YARD TOUCHDOWN RECEPTION BY THAT YOUNG MAN, WEAVER.

GOVERNORS RED RIBBON CAMPAIGN SCORING DRIVE.

THREE PLAYS, 69 YARDS.

MOST COMING FROM WEAVER ON THE TOUCHDOWN PASS FROM ZION CRAWFORD.

COVERED HAD 60 YARDS PASSING BEFORE THAT COMPLETION.

THAT WAS OFFICIALLY 59 YARDS.

HE HAS 119 IN THE GAME.

>> Wayne: BEAUTIFUL THROW BY CRAWFORD.

GREAT ROUTE I WEAVER, SHOWING SPEED THAT HE POSSESSES.

WE TALKED ABOUT THE HAPEVILLE CHARTER TEAM, TRYING TO KEEP THIS PLAY AWAY FROM TAKING THE LEAD.

THAT'S HOW THEY CAME IN.

THEY WANT A CHANCE HERE WITH 5:32, LEFT.

>> Matt: CARVER-ATLANTA GETS THE BALL BACK.

THIS MIGHT BE THE LAST BEST CHANCE TO PUT TOGETHER A DRIVE.

AFTER THIS YOU GET THE BALL BACK AND YOU ARE IN SCRAMBLE POINT.

THEY PROP IT UP ON THE TV.

LIKE THEY WILL KICK IN ONSIDE KICK.

IT IS IN ONSIDE KICK.

IT WILL BE RECOVERED AT THE 50.

BY JAVONTE HOLT.

>> Wayne: THAT GAVE CARVER-ATLANTA PLENTY OF TIME TO MAKE ADJUSTMENTS.

A LOT OF TIME IF YOU SNEAK IT YOU SET THE BALL UP THE ORIGINAL WAY.

HERE THEY PUT IT ON THE TV.

IT TOOK TIME TO GET THE PLACE STARTED.

YOU CAN SEE THE RETURN TEAM SHIFTING OVER TO THE BALL.

>> Matt: CARVER-ATLANTA IS DOWN THREE.

TAKES OVER AT THE 50.

I CAN SEE WHAT THE COACH GORDON WANTED TO DO.

HE'S THINKING TO GET THE BALL BACK AND HOLD AT THE REST OF THE GAME TO WIN.

THE FLIPSIDE OF THAT, YOU GIVE CARVER-ATLANTA A SHORT FIELD TO WORK WITH.

SCOTT.

THAT WILL BE A FLY COULD YOU CANNOT HURTLE THE DEFENDER LIKE THAT.

NOT IN HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL.

>> Wayne: WE HAVE SEEN THE SPEED OF SCOTT.

RIGHT THERE, HURTLING OVER ZACH SMITH.

IN HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL THAT IS NOT ALLOWED.

WE DO THAT A LOT ON SUNDAYS.

>> Matt: YOU SEE THAT ON SATURDAYS AND SUNDAYS AND THEY NATURALLY THINK THEY CAN DO.

IF THAT IS THE CALL?

UNLESS THERE IS ANOTHER INFRACTION.

JON IS REPORTING FROM THE SIDELINE.

WE HAD A PERSONAL FOUL GOING AGAINST CARVER-ATLANTA.

THERE MARKING OFF 15 YARDS AGAINST CARVER-ATLANTA.

SPOTTED AT THE 40.

NOW THEY WILL MARK OFF -- ANOTHER 15 YARDS.

IT PUTS THE BALL DOWN WHERE IT WOULD HAVE BEEN.

FIRST AND 15, MINUS 15, IS ZERO.

AM I RIGHT?

SIMPLE MATH COULD HAVE SOLVED THAT AND SAVED TIME.

SO, FIRST DOWN AND FIVE.

THAT'S WHAT WE WILL CALL IT FROM THE 50.

SCOTT IS ON THE KERRY DOWN TO THE 42.

DID I MISS SOMETHING?

>> Wayne: GOOD JOB GETTING ON THE RIGHT SIDE.

SECURING THAT EDGE OF SPEED OF SCOTT ON THIS PLAY.

TO GET THAT BALL TO THE OUTSIDE.

RUNNING TO THE BOUNDARY THERE.

THE WAY THE CARVER-ATLANTA TEAM IS MOVING ON THIS DRIVE -- YOU GET THE SENSE THAT THIS IS POSSIBLY THE LAST POSSESSION THEY WILL HAVE WITH THE BALL.

>> Matt: SECOND DOWN AND SEVEN FROM THE 47.

>> Wayne: I THINK WE WILL GET THE HAPEVILLE CHARTER BAND PLAYING DURING THE PLAY.

THE REFEREE WAS POINTING FOR THEM TO QUIET DOWN.

CARVER-ATLANTA CANNOT GET THE CADENCE.

>> Matt: THEY WERE ROCKING OUT PRETTY GOOD.

SECOND DOWN AND SEVEN.

BEING CHASED.

GOING TO RUN.

KNOCKED OUT OF BOUNDS.

PICKS UP THE FIRST DOWN ON THE RUN.

WHEN YOU SPOT HIM AT THE 37.

>> Wayne: BIG HIT BY ZION CRAWFORD.

PLAYING ON THE DEFENSIVE SIDE OF THE BALL HERE AT THE END OF THIS RUN ON MONTAVIOUS BANKS.

VERY CLOSE TO A PERSONAL FOUL.

HE USES THE CROWN OF THE HELMET THERE.

YOU CAN SEE CRAWFORD REALLY LOWER HIS HEAD.

HE GOT AWAY WITH A PERSONAL FOUL THERE.

A POSSIBLE EJECTION.

>> Matt: THAT WOULD'VE BEEN AT INJECTION -- EJECTION.

A COUPLE YARDS ON THE CARRY BY JS.

>> Wayne: GREAT JOB BY JUSTIN.

PENETRATION GETTING OFF THE BLOCK OF PERRY.

ONE THING THE DEFENSE HAS DONE A GREAT JOB OF IN THE RUNNING GAME -- >> Matt: LATAIOUS STEPP WILL NOT MAKE IT BACK TO THE LINE OF SCRIMMAGE.

THE BALL COMES OUT.

HAPEVILLE CHARTER MIGHT HAVE IT.

IT LOOKED LIKE HAPEVILLE CHARTER WAS FIRST ON THE BALL.

WE WILL SEE WHO WON THE WRESTLING MATS?

HAPEVILLE CHARTER DATE.

>> Wayne: GREAT JOB OF WILLIAMSON, GETTING THE FEEL ON THIS PLAY.

MAKING LATAIOUS STEPP HAVING TO BOUNCE THE BALL TO THE OUTSIDE.

FIGHTING FOR YARDAGE.

AS YOU CAN SEE THE BALL BEING STRIPPED OUT BY CRAWFORD.

THE QUARTERBACK, RUNNING BACK, RECEIVER, IS NOW ON DEFENSE PLAYING SAFETY.

RIPPING THE BALL OUT.

CLEARLY OUT.

DOING A GOOD JOB THERE OF WILLIAMSON GETTING BACK ONTO THE BALL.

THE PENETRATION OF HIM MAKING THAT PLAY BOUNCE OUT.

3:44.

THE WAY THIS GAME IS GOING, DRAMATIC FASHION.

>> Matt: CRAWFORD MAY HAVE SOLIDIFIED STATUS AS THE GEORGIA PLAYER OF THE GAME.

COMING UP, THE STRIP ON DEFENSE.

CAN HAPEVILLE CHARTER RUN OUT THE CLOCK?

THAT WAS HARRIS ON THE RUN.

CARVER-ATLANTA HAS TWO TIMEOUTS REMAINING.

THE CLOCK IS THAT 3:30.

TEND TO COACH GORDON TALKED ABOUT RELYING ON THE RUN GAME AND DEFENSE.

HE KNEW HIS DEFENSE WOULD SHOW UP FOR HIM.

THAT IS WHAT THEY HAVE DONE IN THIS GAME.

THEY GAVE THE OFFENSE A CHANCE TO KILL THE CLOCK.

SECOND DOWN AND 11.

CRAWFORD SCRAMBLES.

GOING TO TAKE A LOSS.

BACK AT THE 38.

LET'S SEE IF THEY BURN A TIMEOUT?

I WOULD CERTAINLY CONSIDER IT.

THE CLOCK IS STILL RUNNING.

IS STOPPED AND RUNNING AGAIN.

THEY HAVE HAD ISSUES WITH THE CLOCK ALL NIGHT.

WE ARE RELYING ON THAT, NOT KNOWING IF IT'S ACCURATE OR NOT?

IS STOPPED AGAIN AT 2:40.

>> Wayne: IT'S INTERESTING THAT COACH MYLES HAS NOT CALLED WITH HIS TWO REMAINING TIMEOUTS WITH THE WAY HIS OFFENSE HAS BEEN MOVING.

YOU WANT TO GIVE THEM ALL THE TIME THEY NEED TO GET DOWN THE FIELD.

>> Matt: THIRD DOWN AND THREE.

THEY WILL RUN A REVERSE.

HOPS OVER A MAN AND A FLAG COMES OUT.

>> Wayne: A BLOCK IN THE BACK BY WILLIAMS ON TAYLOR.

RIGHT ON THE EDGE.

TRYING TO SECURE THE EDGE FOR WEAVER TO GET AROUND.

WILLIAMS, BLOCKING TAYLOR FROM THE BACK.

>> Matt: I THINK THAT IS SOMETHING YOU WOULD DECLINE RIGHT HERE.

>> Wayne: SHOVING 28.

>> Matt: FOURTH DOWN.

THEY DECLINED THE BLOCK IN THE BACK.

LOOKS LIKE CARVER-ATLANTA WILL GET IT BACK FOR A FINAL POSSESSION.

TRAILING, 15-12 HERE IN THIS CHAMPIONSHIP GAME.

>> Wayne: WE HAVE SEEN UPS AND DOWNS FOR BOTH TEAMS IN THE KICKING GAME TONIGHT.

DON'T LOOK AWAY ON THIS PUNT.

>> Matt: DON'T TURN YOUR BACK.

I BELIEVE THAT COVERAGE IS USED THE SECOND TIMEOUT?

THE BALL IS SITTING AT THE 41.

AS BEST WE CAN TELL, THERE IS TWO MINUTES AND TWO SECONDS LEFT OF REGULATION.

>> Wayne: MONTAVIOUS BANKS HAS NOT HAD A BIG NIGHT THROWING THE BALL AS WE ANTICIPATED.

THE CARVER-ATLANTA TEAM IS NOT BIG ON KICKING FIELD GOALS.

THAT COMES INTO PLAY.

THEY CONTINUE TO GO FORWARD.

TWO POINT CONVERSION TEAM.

NOT A BIG FIELD GOAL TEAM.

YOU IMAGINE HOW MUCH THAT WILL PLAY IN THE DECISION THAT THEY MOVE THE BALL DOWN THE FIELD.

>> Matt: JON REPORTING THERE OFFICIALLY IS TO: 10, LEFT OF REGULATION.

-- 2: 10.

PUNTING SITUATION FOR HAPEVILLE CHARTER.

THEY ALREADY RAN ONE FAKE PUNT TONIGHT.

TERRIOUS FAVORS IS DANGEROUS.

72 YARD KICKOFF RETURN TOUCHDOWN TONIGHT.

STANDING DEEP.

A LOW SNAP.

THEY KICK IT TO THE OTHER SIDE AWAY FROM TERRIOUS FAVORS.

A FAIR CATCH IS CALLED AND MADE BY COCHRAN.

THAT IS WHERE CARVER-ATLANTA GOES ON OFFENSE.

34.

66 YARDS AWAY FROM A WINNING TOUCHDOWN.

THE CARVER-ATLANTA IN THE REGION GAMES, AVERAGING 45 POINTS PER GAME.

THEY'VE NOT WON A REGION GAME BY LESS THAN 30 POINTS THE ENTIRE SEASON.

HERE THEY ARE, DOWN BY THREE.

THEY HAVE BEEN HELD TO 12 POINTS TONIGHT.

THEY'VE BEEN HELD TO ONE TOUCHDOWN BY THEIR OFFENSE.

>> Wayne: HOW BIG IS IT WITH THE FAIRLEY LOSS IN THIS SITUATION?

FAIRLEY AND BOOKER SUPPLYING PRESSURE INSIDE THE POCKET.

TRONE I BELIEVE IT IS THE CARVER-ATLANTA BAND BLASTING AWAY?

WHILE THE OFFENSE IS TRYING TO RUN THE PLAY.

MONTAVIOUS BANKS ROLLING TO HIS RIGHT.

STOPS.

LOOKING DOWNFIELD.

RUNS AWAY FROM IT.

MONTAVIOUS BANKS IS GOING TO SECURE THE BALL AND MOVE FORWARD.

HE STILL IS NOT DOWN.

THEY ARE STILL GOING.

PROGRESS HAS STOPPED AT THE 46.

12 YARD PICKUP.

THEY MADE UP A LOT OF TIME.

>> Wayne: GOOD LUCK IN THE BACK ON WILLIAMSON.

HE WAS COMPLAINING DURING THE PLAY.

MONTAVIOUS BANKS WAS STILL DRIVING, PICKING UP YARDAGE.

TRAUMA THE CARVER-ATLANTA BAND IS BLASTING AWAY WHILE THE OFFENSE IS TRYING TO RUN A PLAY.

PASS IS COMPLETE AT THE FORTIER.

THAT WILL BE A TWO YARD PICKUP GOING TO TERRIOUS FAVORS.

>> Wayne: THERE'S NO RULE AGAINST YOUR TEAM BAND PLAYING WELL YOU HAVE THE BALL.

THE RULE IS THAT THE OTHER TEAMS BAND CANNOT PLAY WHEN THE OPPOSING TEAM HAS THE BALL.

NOW, CARVER-ATLANTA WOULD HAVE TO TELL THEIR BAND TO SIT DOWN AND HOLD THE INSTRUMENTS FOR A MINUTE.

>> Matt: SECOND DOWN AND EIGHT.

THE CLOCK IS STILL RUNNING.

UNDER 70 SECONDS TO GO.

MONTAVIOUS BANKS TAKES A SACK AT THE 40.

HUGE QUARTERBACK SACK.

FLETCHER, GETTING IN THERE FOR THE SACK.

>> Wayne: FLETCHER AND WILLIAMSON MEETING AT THE QUARTERBACK.

COMING OFF THE EDGE WITH NO VERTICAL.

MONTAVIOUS BANKS TRYING TO STOP FELT THE PRESSURE ON THE BACKSIDE BY BOOKER.

FLETCHER COMES IN AND CLEANS UP.

A SACK HERE FOR EACH PLAYER, WORKING OFF THE BALL.

WE DO HAVE WILLIAMSON WHO SLOWLY IS GETTING OFF THE FIELD.

>> Matt: AFTER HIS CELEBRATION HE WENT DOWN IN A HEAP.

THE BALL IS BACK AT THE 39.

IT WILL BE THIRD-DOWN.

ABOUT, 17, FOR A FIRST DOWN.

THE CLOCK IS SHOWING, 1:02.

IT LOOKS LIKE A CRAMP FOR WILLIAMSON.

YOU CAN SEE JON GOING OUT TO CHECK THE CLOCK.

THEY HAVE BEEN KEEPING THE TIME ON THE FIELD BECAUSE THE CLOCK IN THE STADIUM HAS NOT BEEN FUNCTIONING CONSISTENTLY.

TEND TO WILLIAMSON, LINEBACKER TYPE OFF THE AS.

A YOUNG JUNIOR.

I HOPE YOU CAN GET BACK IN THE GAME ON THE NEXT SNAP, IF THERE IS ANOTHER FOR CARVER-ATLANTA.

THE WAY HE CAN RUSH THE PASSER.

>> Matt: THE CLOCK IS SHOWING, 1:02.

A GREATER CONCERN IS CARVER-ATLANTA.

THEY HAVE TO PICK UP THE FIRST DOWN.

THEY'RE FACING WHAT LOOKS LIKE A THIRD AND 16.

MONTAVIOUS BANKS WILL SET UP A SCREENPLAY.

IT GOES TO LATAIOUS STEPP.

UP TO THE 50.

IT WILL BE FOR THEM.

THE CLOCK CONTINUES TO RUN.

THEY HAVE TO PICK UP FIVE YARDS.

SIX TO KEEP THE REGULAR SEASON IN THE PURSUIT TO THE REGION TITLE.

FOURTH AND SIX.

>> Wayne: THE CLOCK IS STILL RUNNING.

I'M NOT SURE IF MONTAVIOUS BANKS IS AWARE?

>> Matt: LOOKING AND SCRAMBLING.

DOWN THE POCKET.

DURING DOWNFIELD.

BROKEN UP AND HAPEVILLE CHARTER WILL WIN THE REGIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP.

>> Wayne: BIG PLAY BY ANTHONY BROOKS.

YOU WOULD HAVE TO SEE IT TO BELIEVE IT.

BOTH QUARTERBACKS MAKING KEY DEFENSIVE PLAYS.

MONTAVIOUS BANKS TRYING TO SCRAMBLE TO GET TO THE OUTSIDE.

BROOKS, RIDDING THE EYES OF THE QUARTERBACK CARED GETTING THAT HAND ON THAT BALL.

TO SEAL THE WIN FOR HIS TEAM.

>> Matt: WHAT ABOUT LATE IN THE GAME, TWO GUYS WHO SWAP UP TAKING SNAPS, CAME UP WITH THE TWO BIGGEST DEFENSIVE PLAYS OF THE GAME.

>> Wayne: CRAWFORD ON THE LAST AND THIS ONE, BROOKS.

BOTH PLAYING CENTERFIELD.

JUST AN AWARENESS OF BROOKS TO KNOCK THE BALL AWAY.

SOME OF THE HORNETS ARE BACK IN AA.

THE REST OF AA CANNOT BE HAPPY ABOUT THAT.

BACK WHEN THEY WERE IN AA, 2016 TO 2019, THEY WENT 45 THIS IS 44-9-1.

IT WON THE 2017 STATE CHAMPIONSHIP.

THEY WILL WIN THE REGION CHAMPIONSHIP HERE IN 2024 IN THE FIRST YEAR BACK IN AA AFTER PLAYING IN 4A THE LAST FEW YEARS.

HORNETS ARE THE CHAMPS LED BY CRAWFORD.

THE SAFETY THEY PLUGGED IN AT QUARTERBACK THIS WEEK.

BECAUSE THE STARTER, POPE, GOT HURT.

HE DID HECKUVA JOB LEADING THEM TO THE CHAMPIONSHIP.

IT WILL FINISH UP THE REGULAR SEASON, 7-3.

6-0 IN THE REGION.

5-0 AT HOME.

THEY WILL CARRY A SIX-GAME WINNING STREAK INTO THE PLAYOFFS.

>> Wayne: THE COACH SAID IT WOULD BE AN UGLY GAME AND WE WOULD GET A VICTORY.

THAT'S WHAT HE BROUGHT OUT HERE.

HIS TEAM FOUGHT AND SCRATCHED AND STAYED IN THE GAME.

DOWN SO MANY PEOPLE OFFENSIVELY AND DEFENSIVELY.

DEFENSIVE LINE PAYING SAFETY.

GREAT ATHLETES THAT USE A PLAY QUARTERBACK AND THEY DELIVERED TONIGHT.

HE SAID HE WOULD WRITE THE DEFENSE TO A VICTORY.

THIS WAS A DEFENSIVE BATTLE ON BOTH SIDES OF THE BALL.

BOTH TEAMS ABLE TO RUN THE BALL A LITTLE.

WHEN IT COUNTED, CRAWFORD, MAKING PLAYS DOWN THE FIELD WITH A BIG PASS.

>> Matt: I WOULD SAY IT IS PRETTY GOOD.

FIVE REGION TILES IN 14 YEARS OF FOOTBALL.

THE FIRST SINCE 2019.

YOU SAW THE SCORE OR COMIC.

NFL, IT ONLY HAPPENED NINE TIMES IN HISTORY.

WE SAW IT TONIGHT.

>> Wayne: WE SAW A LOT OF THINGS THAT WE ARE NOT PREPARED TO SEE ON A FOOTBALL FIELD.

THAT IS WHAT HAPPENS LATE IN THE YEAR.

YOU HAVE A COUPLE INJURIES, YOU HAVE TO MAKE IT UP.

AS I TALKED ABOUT WITH THE COACH AND HIS TEAM, HE DID NOT LACK CONFIDENCE THAT HE COULD COME OVER TO GET A WIN.

>> Matt: HAPEVILLE CHARTER, THE LITTLE ENGINE THAT COULD.

GEORGIA HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL WINS ANOTHER REGION TITLE.

THEY GET THE TROPHY, TOO.

>> Wayne: THE EXCITEMENT OF THE PLAYERS SPEAKS FOR ITSELF.

REGARDLESS OF HOW THEY WON, THEY WON THE REGION AND THEY SHOULD BE PROUD.

>> Matt: THAT LOOKS FUN.

A TOUGH WAY FOR CARVER-ATLANTA TO WRAP UP THE REGULAR SEASON WITH THE SIX-GAME WINNING STREAK SNAP.

MAKE NO MISTAKE ABOUT IT, HAPEVILLE CHARTER WON THIS GAME TIME.

THEY DESERVE THE VICTORY.

>> Wayne: THE DEFENSE SET UP TONIGHT IN A BIG WAY.

CARVER-ATLANTA CAME IN THIS GAME CLOSE TO 200 YARDS RUSHING.

ON AVERAGE.

194 PER GAME, AVERAGE.

HAPEVILLE CHARTER DEFENSE SHUT THEM UP.

>> Matt: COACHES AND A FEW DELIVERED BY JOHNNY'S PIZZA.

>> LET'S SEE WHAT THE COACH HAS TO DELIVER.

WE ARE SURROUNDED BY CHAMPS.

HOW CREATIVE DID YOU AND THE STAFF HAVE TO GET THIS WEEK ON OFFENSE TO GET THE GAME PLAN TOGETHER AGAINST A TOUGH TEAM?

>> MY COACHES DO AN OUTSTANDING JOB.

DEFENSIVE COORDINATOR, WE KNEW ZION COULD PLAY QUARTERBACK.

HE PLAYED IN MIDDLE SCHOOL.

A CHAMPION IN MIDDLE SCHOOL.

WE KNEW THAT HE COULD PLAY QUARTERBACK.

WHEN BOTH QUARTERBACKS WENT DOWN THIS WEEK, WE GOT CREATIVE AND WE KNEW WE COULD DO DIFFERENT THINGS.

THEY DIDN'T KNOW HE COULD PASS THE BALL.

HE SHOWED THEM TODAY WHO HE IS.

>> IT TURNED OUT TO BE THE LONG DISTANCE PAST THE GOT THE SCORE THAT YOU EVENTUALLY HELD ON TO GET THE WIN.

HE PULLED THE PASS AND YOU CAUGHT THEM ON THEIR HEELS.

>> WE KNEW IT WAS GOING TO COME OPEN IN THE SECOND HALF BECAUSE THEY WERE LOADING THE BOX ON US.

WE WERE WAITING TO LEAK THEM OUT AND WE GOT THEM.

>> DEFENSIVELY YOU CLAMPED DOWN.

THEY DIDN'T GET THE FIRST COMPLETION UNTIL THIRD QUARTER.

TO QUOTE THE DEFENSE FOR ME AND WHAT IT WAS LIKE TO SEE THEM RESPOND THE WAY THAT YOU WANTED TO.

IN THAT IS KEVIN POPE.

I WOULD BE REMISS IF I DIDN'T TALK ABOUT THE JOB HE DOES EVERY DAY WITH THOSE GENTLEMEN.

THE WAY HE WOULD GET THE KIDS READY TO PLAY, THE GUY IS OUTSTANDING AND DID AN OUTSTANDING JOB FOR THEM TODAY.

THAT'S WHAT HE DOES.

THAT IS NOT NEW TO ME.

I SEE IT EVERYDAY.

WE HAVE TO GO AGAINST THEM EVERY DAY AT PRACTICE.

I KNOW WHAT HE CAN DO AND HE IS CREATIVE WHEN HE HAS TIME TO GET IT DONE.

>> YOUR BACK IN AA.

YOUR BACK HANDING OUT TROPHIES FOR REGION CHANCE.

WHERE IS THE TROPHY?

WHERE IS THAT TROPHY?

THERE IT IS.

THERE WE GO.

>> THAT IS ONE INTERVIEW DOWN.

CLEAR A PATH.

I HAVE TO TALK TO THE PLAYER OF THE GAME.

THE HEAD COACH, CONGRATULATIONS.

PLAYER OF THE GAME, NATURAL CHOICE FOR GEORGIA AND PLAYER OF THE GAME, SEVEN FOR THE HORNETS.

119 IN THE AIR.

GAME-WINNING TOUCHDOWN.

WAS IT LIKE BEING QUARTERBACK ALL OVER AGAIN?

WAS IT FLASH BANGS?

>> HONESTLY, THE COACHES KNEW I COULD PLAY.

I SHOWED UP TO PRACTICE AND THEY TRUSTED ME WITH THE GAME PLAN.

>> I LOVE HOW FOLKS ARE COUNTING YOU.

THERE YOU GO.

HE IS THE GOAT FOR THIS WEEK.

WHAT WAS ALIKE OUT THERE HAVING TO SETTLE THINGS DOWN?

YOU WOULD GET A PLAY AND THEN THE OTHER QUARTERBACK.

WAS ALIKE FOR YOU GUYS OUT THERE SHUTTLING PLAYS AND TRYING TO GET INTO A RHYTHM?

TWO WE WERE DOING AT PRACTICE SO WE KNEW.

ME AND THE OTHER QUARTERBACK, SWITCHING OUT, IT DIDN'T MAKE NO DIFFERENCE.

THEY BOTH ARE -- >> LET'S TALK ABOUT THE TWO TOUCHDOWNS AND WHAT IT IS LIKE TO GET THE BALL IN THE END ZONE IN DIFFERENT WAYS.

FOR ME THROUGH THE TOUCHDOWNS THAT YOU HAD TONIGHT FOR THE BIG WIN?

LIKE THE FIRST TOUCHDOWN IN THE RED ZONE.

THE COVER DEFENSE WAS STOPPING THE RUNS SO WE HAD TO THROW.

JACKSON, WENT OUT FOR THE FLAT ROW.

HE WAS WIDE OPEN AND I HAD TO HIT HIM.

>> THE SECOND ONE?

>> HAD A BEAUTIFUL PLAY.

THE FIRST TIME I MISSED IT.

HE CAUGHT IT AND WE EXECUTED.

>> THAT MEANS ONE PLUS ONE EQUALS 15.

IF YOU WOULD, THE PLAYER OF THE GAME, SHOW THAT ONCE AGAIN.

THERE IT IS.

REGION CHAMPS.

HAPEVILLE CHARTER.

THAT IS THE STORY AS A COVER AA.

WE SEND IT BACK TO YOU.

I WANT TO GIVE.

THAT WAS TOO MUCH FUN.

IT IS FUN WHEN YOU WIN.

TO SEE THE ENTHUSIASM OF THE KIDS.

JUMPING AROUND, DANCING.

SINGING.

THEY HAVE THE TROPHY HIGH UP IN THE SKY.

A LOT OF FUN THERE TO WATCH THE YOUNG MEN IN THE REGION CHAMPIONSHIP.

>> Wayne: NO ONE AT THE END OF THE DAY WILL CARE ABOUT STYLE POINTS FOR THEY WILL CARE IF YOU CAN SAY YOU ARE THE CHAMPS AND HOW FAR YOU CAN GO IN THE PLAYOFFS.

THEY SHOWED UP FOR THEIR COACH AND FOR EACH OTHER TONIGHT TO WIN.

>> Matt: THINK HOW CRAZY IT IS FOR CRAWFORD.

PLAYING SECONDARY THE SECOND --THE SAFETY A WEEK AGO.

IF THEY TOLD HIM THAT NEXT FRIDAY YOU WILL BE THE STAR OF THE GAME, PLAYING QUARTERBACK FOR YOUR TEAM, WHAT YOU THINK ABOUT THAT?

>> Wayne: DOING TWO TOUCHDOWNS.

A BIG ONE DOWN THE FIELD.

COME LATE OF THE GAME AND KNOCKED DOWN A PASS DEFENSE TO SECURE THE DRIVE.

YOU WILL SCRIPT THE BALL TO GET A TURNOVER.

YOU WOULD DO THAT ON ONE NIGHT.

THAT IS WHAT HE DID HERE FOR HIS TEAM TODAY.

>> Matt: THE BIG-TIME TREATMENT TODAY.

CONGRATULATIONS.

THE HAPEVILLE CHARTER TEAM WHEN THEY WERE IN AA A COUPLE YEARS AGO, THEY DOMINATED.

THEY LOOKED AT HOME IN AA AGAIN.

>> Wayne: THEY LOOKED LIKE THEY DID NOT LACK CONFIDENCE TO WIN ON EITHER SIDE OF THE BALL.

DEFENSE TOOK THE CHALLENGE THAT THEY WOULD SHUT THE TEAM OUT AND THEY GAVE OFFENSE THE CHANCE AND THE SHORT FIELD.

THESE TWO QUARTERBACKS, CRAWFORD AND BROOKS, DELIVERED WHEN THEY NEEDED TO.

>> Matt: THAT WAS FUN.

THE PLAYOFFS STARTED A WEEK EARLY.

REGION CHAMPIONSHIP TONIGHT FOR HAPEVILLE CHARTER AS THEY BEAT COVER.

JOIN US NEXT FRIDAY NIGHT AS WE BRING YOU THE FIRST ROUND OF THE GEORGIA HIGH SCHOOL ASSOCIATION PLAYOFFS.
