The Eagles travel down the Golden Isle Parkway to take on the Glynn Academy Red Terrors in the Quarterfinals of the AAAAAA State Playoffs Friday night and returned home with an exciting 42-20 victory. The Eagles now hit the road northward to take on playoff rival Tucker Tigers.

Offensively, the Eagles struck early with two first quarter touchdown runs by senior Tobias Oliver (66 yards, 1 yard) to get out to an early lead and the defense held off the dangerous Red Terror option attack the rest of the way by forcing 4 crucial turnovers.
