The official end of the regular season for many teams in the GHSA and GISA is not until Nov. 8, with dozens of games moved because of Hurricane Helene. But for the 26 teams in the AccessWDUN Sports coverage area, the end came on Friday night.

It was an active week to end on, as we had two overtime games and plenty of surprising results.

Oconee County knocked off Jefferson in overtime, 32-30, to put a three-way tie atop Region 8-3A with Cherokee Bluff's 52-26 win over East Hall. Jefferson still holds on to the top spot in the region with the tiebreakers, with the Bears taking the second seed.

In 6-3A, Chestatee shocked GAC with a 30-20 win off Sardis Road, clinching the third seed in the region. Lumpkin County benefits after their 29-26 win over Pickens as the second seed in the region.

Lanier Christian clinched the top seed in GAPPS with a win over Creekside Christian. At the same time, Jackson County matched their best regular season record with a 34-21 win over Habersham Central, clinching the second seed in 8-4A.

And Buford's defense was too much for Mill Creek as the Wolves rolled to a 32-7 win and the Region 8-6A title on the road.
