Loganville defeated Clarke Central 51-50 last week. It marked the 52nd time in GHSA history that both teams have scored 50 points or more in a game. Brought on by new overtime rules and higher-scoring offenses, the 50-50 game is almost entirely a phenomenon of the past 20 years. Until 2004, it had happened only once, in 1999. Loganville and Clarke Central were the first to do it in 2023. East Hall remains the undisputed 50-50 instigator. The Vikings have appeared in five 50-50 games, all between 2016 and 2021, and under four head coaches. They’re 2-3 in such games.
