Chattooga’s Zayden Cook clinched the regular-season rushing title last week with a 302-yard final effort that put him in the records books.
Morgan County’s Jaylen Elder appears safe as the regular-season receiving leader with 1,349 yards.
The passing leader, Antwann Hill of Houston County, has completed his regular season and faces a final challenge tonight.
In rushing, Cook finished with 2,735 regular-season yards, second-most in GHSA history behind Treylon Sheppard’s 2,874 for Haralson County in 2018 and ahead of Nick Chubb’s 2,721 with Cedartown in 2021.
Also, Brookwood’s Brayden Tyson set the GHSA record for regular-season rushing yards in the highest classification with 2,178, breaking the mark of 2,137 set by former Brookwood player Kenny Miles in 2007. Tyson’s total on MaxPreps, reported here Tuesday, had him short, but Brookwood’s final official statistics show him with 41 more than Miles.
The regular-season passing championship will come down to the final game. Hill, an AJC Super 11 quarterback committed to Memphis, has thrown for 2,874 yards with no more games until the playoffs.
New Hampstead’s Rashawn Truell is in eighth place statewide with 2,532 yards and has a home game tonight against seventh-ranked Ware County.
