HOGANSVILLE — Callaway held the state’s highest-scoring offense in any classification to just 10 points en route to a 41-17 blowout over No. 2 Rabun County Friday night at Callaway Stadium. The Wildcats’ march to Georgia State Stadium came to an end at the hands of Class 2A’s top defense (13 ppg, 10 ppg in playoffs) in a battle that the Cavaliers imposed their will.   Rabun’s best highlight of the semifinal matchup came in the second quarter when Gunner Stockton connected with Adri...

TIGER — When Adriel Clark transferred from Riverside Military Academy to Rabun County late in the summer, it was seen as perhaps a key ingredient for what was already a potent Wildcats offense. They already had the nation’s No. 1 junior quarterback prospect in the country in Gunner Stockton (South Carolina-commit), a slew of receivers for their high-flying spread attack, and arguably their best offensive line in school history returning. Clark was seen as a deep ball threat that could help...

AccessWDUN has three teams from its coverage area still playing for championships. We will look at the Class 2A bracket today, which houses Rabun County. The Wildcats (12-1) are into just their second-ever Final 4 in program history but know how to win at this level having advanced to the finals in 2017 in their only other attempt.

TIGER — Gunnar Stockton’s 1-yard plunge in overtime gave Rabun County a thrilling 27-24 win over Bleckley County Friday night in the quarterfinals of the Class 2A playoffs.
