The Indians closed out their regular season on a high note by winning the Region 3-7A title, and they’ll now turn their attention to the Class 7A state playoffs. They’re on the opposite side of the bracket of Grayson, which could set up an epic state finals against the Rams.

The Longhorns closed out the regular season up one spot in the rankings to No. 3, and they did so by winning their last 22 games in a row. The streak was highlighted by a Region 6-5A title, sending them into the Class 5A state playoffs as the favorites to repeat.

The Cougars are up one spot to No. 4 to close out the regular season. They won the Region 5-6A title with ease and will now enter the Class 6A state playoffs as the favorites to repeat as champions. 

The Patriots round out the Top 5 after winning the Region 5-3A title with a dominant performance against Cedar Grove. They’ll enter the Class 3A state playoffs as the favorites to repeat as champions.

The Wildcats closed out their regular season winners of 10 in a row, and it was capped with another Region 5-7A title. Looking ahead to the Class 7A state playoffs, the defending champs could see No. 2 McEachern in what would be an epic Final 4 matchup at Georgia State.

The Eagles ended their regular season winning their last 16 games in a row, including winning the Region 7-D2 title. They’ll enter the Class A-D2 state playoffs as the heavy favorites to win the state championship.

The Wolves’ terrific regular season ended with them winning the Region 8-7A championship, and they’ll now enter the Class 7A state playoffs winners of 13 in a row. They do find themselves in the same quadrant as No. 2 McEachern, however, which could complicate things fairly quickly for the Wolves.

The Rams had three cracks at No. 1 Grayson during the regular season and despite playing great in two of them, failed to come away with a win. They were forced to settle as the Region 4-7A runner-ups, and now find themselves awaiting a second-round matchup against No. 2 McEachern as a result. 

The Warhawks close out the Top 10 after handing Pace Academy another loss in the Region 5-4A title game. The Warhawks beat the Knights in two of their three meetings during the regular season and they will now gear up for the Class 4A state playoffs as one of the favorites.

The Knights were forced to settle as the Region 5-4A runner-ups after losing to No. 10 McDonough in the title game. They will now have a very tough second-round matchup against Holy Innocents, who could send them home early in the Class 4A state playoffs.

It has been an up-and-down regular season for the Golden Bears, but they find themselves in a good spot after closing out the regular season winners of 11 in a row. They won the Region 6-4A title, and if they’re able to get past No. 11 Pace in the second round, they could make a run all the way to the Class 4A state finals.

After beating No. 6 Wheeler in their first meeting of the season, the Raiders lost the last two, including the Region 5-7A championship, and were forced to settle for the region runner-up spot. They’re in a favorable quadrant in the Class 7A state playoffs, however and could still make plenty of noise.

Heading into the season, not many gave Peachtree Ridge much of a shot to win the Region 7-7A title, but that’s exactly what they did. They will head into the Class 7A state playoffs in the same quadrant as No. 1 Grayson which isn’t ideal, but it’s a team they have already played this season.

The War Eagles had a strong end to their regular season, and it ended with them beating a team they couldn’t in their previous two tries, Jonesboro in the Region 3-6A finals. They will now enter the Class 6A state playoffs as one of the favorites.

The Generals closed out their regular season winners of seven in a row, and it was capped with a Region 8-6A title. They will now enter the Class 6A state playoffs as one of the favorites to win it all in what is a very wide open classification.

The Patriots closed out their regular season winning the Region 4-2A title, and will now enter the Class 2A state playoffs as the favorites to win it all.

Winners of 14 in a row to close out the regular season, the Titans capped things off with a Region 8-4A title. At 25-3 on the season, they will now gear up for the Class 4A state playoffs where they will be one of several teams that have a chance to make a deep run.

The Braves closed out their regular season on a high note, winning the Region 2-4A title. Having won their last 11 games in a row, the Braves join the likes of No. 10 McDonough, No.11 Pace, No. 12 Holy Innocents and No. 18 North Oconee as the teams to beat in the Class 4A state playoffs.

The Mustangs played an extremely difficult schedule during the regular season, but it helped lead them to a Region 6-D1 title. Heading into the Class A-D1 state playoffs, the Mustangs will enter as the team to beat.

The Golden Lions had a strong finish to their regular season, winning eight in a row capped off by winning the Region 4-6A title. At 21-6 on the season, the Golden Lions will enter the Class 6A state playoffs as one of the favorites to win it all.

The Bulldogs hit a rough patch in mid January, but rebounded strong after winning the Region 5-5A championship. They’re riding a nine-game winning streak and will enter the Class 5A state playoffs as the second-best team behind No. 3 Kell.

The Eagles had an up-and-down regular season, but ultimately won the Region 6-7A championship to lock up one of the eight No. 1 seeds for the upcoming Class 7A state tournament.

The Patriots did not have the ending to the regular season they had hoped for after a strong start, and they’ll enter the Class 7A state playoffs as a No. 3 seed as a result. They’ll likely face off against No. 6 Wheeler in the second round, which could lead to a big upset, or an early exit.

The biggest fallers in the final Power 25 of the regular season is Tucker, who rounds of the Top 25 in 25th after losing the Region 4-5A championship to Decatur. The Tigers could still very easily make a deep run if they’re able to get back on track in the first round of the Class 5A state playoffs.
