In region 4-AAAAA

playoff action last weekend, the East Coweta Indians (11-0) won their

game against the Bradwell Institute Tigers 39-14 and will host Northside

High (10-1) Friday night.

The Indians

led 20-14 at the half but scored 19 unanswered points in the second half

to take the win. East Coweta gained 353 yards of total offense to the

Tigers' 169 yards, as they set a new school record for most consecutive

wins.

Northside last

week defeated Lowndes 28-3 and is ranked second in Class AAAAA, while

the Indians are ranked seventh. The winner of this game will play the

winner of the Parkview/Roswell game at home.

Northgate was

another team that survived in overtime to make the second round of the

playoffs. The Vikings, the top seed in 5-AA, hosted Darlington and won

11-10. The two teams were tied 3-3 at the end of regulation and the score

was the same after one overtime period.

Darlington

scored first and kicked the extra point, but Northgate calmly went down

the field on its drive, scoring off a 15-yard pass from Mitch Stewart

to Demarcus Hunter.

Instead of

kicking the extra point to tie, the Vikings went for the two-point conversion.

They faked the run and passed to Maurice Huffman, who scored and gave

the Vikings the win.

Northgate (10-1)

will host Putnam County (8-3) next Friday night. Putnam County defeated

Dawson County Friday night 36-12. The winner of this Friday's game will

play the winner of the Americus/East Laurens game away.
