2011 Commitments:
C.J. Johnson and Philadelphia just keep winning. The Tornadoes advance their record to 10-1 with a perfect 5-0 region mark with a 38-6 win over Choctaw Central. Regional foes only managed 35 points combined against the PHS defense.
Nick Redmond and Harrison Central kept their Regional title hopes alive. A 38-20 win over Pascagoula has the Red Rebels in contention heading into the regular season finale.
HCHS (9-1) can secure a home playoff game with a win next week. An HCHS win over Hancock coupled with an Ocean Springs' win over George County would give HCHS the #1 seed heading in the playoffs.
