Carrollton’s Julian Lewis and Savannah Christian’s Elijah Griffin are among 11 Georgia players playing their final high school games Thursday in the Under Armour All-America Game in Deland, Fla.

ESPN will televise the game, played at Spec Martin Stadium, beginning at 4 p.m.

Lewis, recently named the AJC’s Class 6A offensive player of the year, passed for 11,010 yards and 144 touchdowns in a three-year career at Carrollton.
