COOPER SCOTT – BLITZ PICK

Lumpkin County’s Cooper Scott has patiently waited for an Indians victory. The junior quarterback led Lumpkin to its first win since 2019, busting a 19-game losing skid that with each week was setting a new program record. The QB passed for 219 yards on 14-for-21 passing (66% completion) and 3 TDs. He added 79 rushing yards and another score, as well as a 2-point conversion. This is Scott’s first POW award.
