Compiled by Score Atlanta

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. Waller also recovered a fumble defensively, one of three recovered by the Eagles. Linebacker Robert Tucker was an enforcer on defense, accounting for three of the team's six sacks. 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. The Wolves forced four turnovers, including one when Holy Innocents' was going in for a possible game-tying touchdown early in the fourth quarter but fumbled the ball out of the back of the endzone. Cole Mannion had six tackles and an interception to lead Wesleyan's impressive defensive effort.
