This is what you play the regular

season for - the playoffs and a chance for a state championship.

Both Sandy Creek High School

and Landmark Christian School took care of business during the regular

season, earning region titles and a number one seed in their respective

playoff brackets. Their winning ways also gave them home field advantage,

at least for this weekend. The playoffs start on Friday night at 7:30

p.m.

Sandy Creek (10-0), which went

undefeated in Region 4-AAAA, will host Bainbridge (5-5) the fourth seed

out of Region 1-AAAA. Sandy Creek was a monster on both sides of the ball

this season.

The offense averaged over 35

points per game, only being held below 34 points once (Douglas County,

24-21). Their defense was also outstanding this year, allowing an average

of 10.6 points per game.

The Patriots have key weapons

on both offense and defense and have been expertly coached this year,

maintaining their intensity and limiting mistakes.

Bainbridge lost in the final

week of the season to Cairo and also had losses to Thomas County Central,

Clinch County, Colquitt County and Ware County. Bainbridge averaged just

over 20 points per game on offense but allowed 22.5 points per game on

defense. The winner of the Sandy Creek/Bainbridge game will face the winner

of the Troup/Butler game.

Landmark Christian (9-1) will

host Social Circle (5-5), the fourth seed from Region 8-A. The War Eagles

have not lost since Sept. 5, when they fell to Decatur 28-3. During the

course of the season, Landmark's defense had three shutouts and allowed

an average of nine points a game. Their offense averaged 37.6 points per

game.

Social Circle had losses to

Commerce, Athens Academy, Jefferson, Monticello and Monroe Area. They

averaged just over 24 points per game on offense and allowed 22 points

per game on defense.
