Final tune-ups are over with, as we are already halfway through the season for many teams, which means we open region play.These are the games that matter most. #3 Rabun County and #5 Commerce are the only remaining unbeaten teams in our area, while Habersham Central (1-4), White County (5-1), Lumpkin County (0-5) and Stephens County (3-2) will use a bye week to regroup and recover.
Rabun travels to Banks County, while Union and East Hall should prove to be a high-scoring affair.

TIME: 7:30 pm kickoff
PLACE: Dawson County High School (Dawsonville, GA)
LAST MEETING: Dawson won 45-27 at the Brickyard in 2016
ALL-TIME RECORD: North Hall 2, Dawson County 1

HISTORICALLY SPEAKING:
The Trojans took the first two games in the series in 2012 and 2013 by a combined score of 98-20. That’s ancient history, however, as the Tigers destroyed North Hall 45-27 in Gainesville last season. Dawson County will look to snap a two-game losing streak on the 2017 season, and in turn even up the all-time series with the Trojans.
