Most eyes across the state let the overall record cloud their judgment, predicting Thomasville to win over Dadeville in the first round.

But the Tigers faithful knew this team is different, and they showed it last Friday. Two defensive scores; one to Corde Jefferson and the other to Nakia Woody, along with a blanketing performance defensively, were all she wrote in the 28-0 victory for Dadeville in the first round.
