A look at the ranking of the eight regions
Region 3 – Calvary Day No. 2 is 5-0, with Savannah Christian at 4-1 and three teams — Johnson-Savannah, Liberty County and Long County — tied at 3-2. Calvary Day is likely the region’s champion and Savannah Christian the No. 2 seed, but the region’s tiebreaker will likely help determine other playoff contenders.
Region 4 – Harlem and Morgan County are tied for the lead at 3-0, with Hephzibah and Richmond Academy each at 1-2. Harlem and Morgan County will each play one more regional game before Salem travels to Morgan County on Nov. 4 to close out the regular season in what could be the regional title game.
Region 5 – No. 1 Cedar Grove is 2-0 and leads the four-team league with No. 3 Sandy Creek and No. 4 Carver-Atlanta at 1-1. Douglass is 0-2. The Saints rest this week before playing Carver-Atlanta. This league relied on a tiebreaker scenario to determine the playoff pecking order last season, and this year could be similar.
Region 6 – Adairsville (5-0) leads the eight-team league, with Coahulla Creek and Ringgold at 4-1. Bremen are 3-2 and alone in fourth place. The Blue Devils could shake up the league standings with a win over Adairsville on Friday.
Region 7 – Dawson County leads the league at 5-0, with Lumpkin County alone in second place at 3-1. Pickens and Wesleyan are 2-2 and set to pick up regional wins this week over 1-3 White County (Pickens) and 0-4 West Hall (Wesleyan).
Region 8 – No. 7 Stephens County is 3-0 and alone atop, with Hebron Christian and No. 10 Oconee County at 2-1. Hart County and Monroe Area are 1-2 and tied for the fourth seed. Franklin County is 0-3.
