JAVIN GORDON – STEPHENS COUNTY

Javin Gordon has been a bowling ball all season long, knocking over would-be tacklers as if a rolling stone over twigs. The sophomore running back picked up 138 rushing yds and a pair of TDs against #7-ranked Flowery Branch in a statement win for the Indians. Gordon added 34 kickoff return yds, and on the other side of the ball had 7 tackles and a pass breakup. This is Gordon’s first POW award.

KEEGAN STOVER – RABUN COUNTY

Unbelievable. Keegan Stover was a cheat code in Week Three against #10-ranked Adairsville. The Wildcats standout senior QB is certainly turning more heads with each passing game. His latest trick? 481 passing yards and 8 TD – both school records – in a 72-point outburst (also Rabun County record). Stover’s 8 TD passes is tied for the second-most in a single game in state history, and his 481 yards is a top-15 performance all-time. And it came against a top-10 ranked program in a higher classification, so there’s that too. This is Stover’s second POW award.
