The Buford offense may be the highest scoring unit in Class AAA, but the Wolves proved yet again that defense rules in the playoffs.

Despite yielding more than 500 yards of offense and 57 points through three-plus quarters, the Jefferson defense arrived in the nick of time.

Michael D'Angola booted a 27-yard field goal with 11 seconds left to lift North Gwinnett to a wild 42-32 victory over Archer Friday in the second round of the Class AAAAAA playoffs.

Charlton County obviously knows how to travel.

Chestatee's dream season came to screeching halt Friday night against defending Class AAAA state champion Sandy Creek.
