And that’s where we are… the final eight in each classification…

I am going to start with the largest surprise (or what I think is the biggest upset of the quarterfinal round, anyway), but I will go ahead and ask you, Dear Reader, what you think the biggest upset of the week…???

You can answer either at the bottom of this page, over on social media with responses on Facebook (the GPB Sports page), Twitter (@GPBSports), and Snapchat (which is what the kids are doing these days more than I am). So, let me know and let everyone else know that you think the BIGGEST match-up that ended unexpectedly…

Kim Sears has the look at my nominee: Fitzgerald’s win at Benedictine on the coast…

Kim also has a look at Prince Avenue’s win over Savannah Christian as well as Ware, Glynn Academy, and ECI’s win in the round of 16…

A little up the coast in the CSRA, Buford went to the Brickyard to take on Thomson, Jefferson County hosted Rabun County, and Aquinas hosted Christian Heritage in a game that went down to the wire in Single-A private. Matt and Nathan show us how those teams made it to the semi-finals…

Down south, it’s our look at Colquitt County’s struggles with South Forsyth, another view of Benedictine and Fitzgerald, and Bainbridge’s big win over St. Pius, Irwin County and Trion, Clinch and Johnson, and Brooks County and GAC. Theo is in for Jake in The Locker Room…

In the northwest corner of the state, there’s another team quietly doing their business… Calhoun…

The Yellow Jackets have had to go past 48 minutes to knock off Peach County last week and got one of the top talents in the state in Mecole Hardman visiting with his Elbert County team.

And it took a while for the winner to come to the fore…

Rick Nyman has the highlights from our friends at WDEF-TV in Chattanooga…

So, that leaves us with this week…

It’s Colquitt County coming to Hoschton for a match-up with Mill Creek in on 6A semi-final. The winner either has a 29-game win streak or will be heading to a final for the first time…

The “All Access Pass” starts at 7, so join Jackie, Mark, Matt, myself, and the rest of the GPB Army for a look at who is going to the Dome. Kickoff is a little after 7:30 and we’ll keep you posted on the other games around the state to see who makes the seven title games next weekend…

Play it safe, everyone… I’ll see you at the stadium…
