Jefferson High School takes home the BLITZ Cup for the 2018-19 school year. The city school’s athletic teams racked up the highest number of points for their performances on the field this past school year.
Banks County High won the BLITZ Cup last year.
For Jefferson, it marks the first-ever for the school as this was its inaugural year as part of BLITZ’s coverage. Jefferson barely edged Dawson County, scoring 198 points to Dawson’s 196. The total nearly eclipsed Banks County’s 201 from last season, which is the record.
The BLITZ Cup is awarded to one school in the BLITZ coverage area that finishes the year with the most points. Points are earned for state playoff appearances, state rankings, winning seasons, Players of the Week & Year, region titles, and the like for all varsity sports across the board.
