between Starr's Mill and Lovejoy.

The Panthers

are 4-1 while Lovejoy is 3-1 and both teams look strong this year. Starr's

Mill has seen good performances from the running game and played solid

defense against some good opponents. They will have a task tonight facing

points on its opponents.

The winner

of this game could be in the driver's seat on the way to winning the region,

but both teams still have matches against Newnan and East Coweta.

McIntosh (1-4)

finally gets to play at home tonight as renovations to the bleachers have

been completed. It is their homecoming game and the Chiefs will need to

use that school spirit to buckle down and avoid the mistakes that have

plagued them late in the game in the last few weeks. Their opponent tonight

is Carver-Columbus (2-2), which lost to Starr's Mill last week 28-12.

Northgate (0-3)

is hoping to get its first win tonight when they host Pebblebrook (1-1).

The Vikings were shut out by Woodward Academy last week, while the Falcons'

win came against North Clayton.

East Coweta

(2-3), winners of two in a row, look to get
