B.E.S.T. Academy 28, Hapeville Charter 0: The host B.E.S.T. Academy ran the ball effectively behind Deshawn Waller who totaled 150 yards on the ground with two touchdowns.

Deshant Hester also contributed in the Eagle offense, accounting for 61 rushing yards and a score.

Wesleyan 7, Holy Innocents' 0: Cedric Lynch's 4-yard touchdown run just prior to halftime proved to be the only score as visiting Wesleyan fought past Holy Innocents' to clinch a playoff berth.

Cole Mannion had six tackles and an interception to lead Wesleyan's impressive defensive effort.
