Surprise! All area teams still alive

By Kyle Dean/Sports Editor

Toombs is 6-0 since the offensive switch while rushing for nearly 2,000 yards in those six games.

Fitzgerald ran around, and through the Charlton defense as the Hurricane built a 39-0 lead early in the second half.

The Hurricane will now take on the Henry County Warhawks in McDonough Friday night.

The Warhawks are 10-1 this season, and are led by quarterback Drew Little. Little, a 6 foot 5, 260 pounder, has thrown for nearly 9,000 yards in his career.

The state record for passing yards in a career is held by Zach Stanford of Metter High, who was coached by Tift County offensive coordinator Keith Gosse.

Stanford threw for 9,062 yards from 2001-2004.

Turner County will face Brookstone in the second round after blasting Terrell County, 43-19 in Ashburn last Friday night.

E.J. Walker rushed for 156 yards on only nine carries, while Kenveyon Newberry was 8-for-13 for 249 yards passing.

Todd Lawson had three catches for 127 yards and a touchdown, and Hiawatha Parker also contributed with 75 yards on three catches in the contest.

Brookstone, from Columbus, is 11-0 on the season after defeating Savannah Country Day by a 28-3 score.

Tift County will head north again this week to take on the undefeated Newnan Cougars.

Tift (8-3) defeated Martin Luther King last Saturday 24-14, in Clarkston to earn a bid into the second round of the Class AAAAA playoffs.

Malcom Dixon ran for 111 yards and a touchdown, and John Tibbetts blocked two punts on the evening as the Devils’ special teams were once again — special.

Tift County wore silver pants on the road for the first time since 2004 to make the night even more special.

Newnan (11-0) is led by quarterback Russell Powell, and running back Keandreas Wynn. Powell has 19 touchdown passes and seven touchdown runs on the season and is 22-2 as a starting quarterback, while Wynn has rushed for nearly 1,100 yards on the season out of the spread offense.
