This is the

final week of the regular season and only two teams have games scheduled

for this Friday. Sandy Creek will travel to Newnan to take on the Northgate

Vikings, while Landmark Christian will host the Mt. Zion, Carroll Eagles.

Sandy Creek

(6-3) has clinched the third seed in region 4-AAAA and will be on the

road when the state playoffs start next week. The Patriots had won three

games in a row before losing to Pebblebrook by a point last week. Sandy

Creek's Phillip Hyde has given the team an amazing season by rushing for

over 1,000 yards. In last week's loss, Hyde had close to 270 yards rushing

and two touchdowns. Northgate (3-6) has lost two games in a row, to Lithia

Springs and Douglas County respectively. Their wins this year have come

against Chapel Hill, Alexander and Forest park and in their wins they

have outscored their opponents 78-41.

Sandy Creek

mut use this game as a tuneup for what is sure to be a tough game next

week. Their offense has been clicking but they must continue scoring.

Pebblebrook rallied against Sandy Creek in the fourth quarter last week

and edged the Patriots out for the win. Expect that letdown to motivate

the team to stay hungry against Northgate.

Landmark Christian

(9-0) is a win away from a perfect regular season and their opponent tonight,

Mt. Zion Carroll (3-6) should not present too many problems for the War

Eagles. Landmark has outscored their opponents 408-109 this season and

has only allowed 19 points in their last three games. The War Eagle offense

is very deep and talented and has been scoring almost at will lately.

Mt. Zion, Carroll has socred over 30 points per game in their wins, but

those wins came against Our Lady of Mercy, Whitefield Academy and Walker.

The War eagles should roll tonight and get ready for next week's home

game to open the state playoffs.
