Our Game of the Week takes us to Macon for the GHSA State Championship as Rabun County takes on Southwest Macon.

RABUN VS SOUTHWEST MACON

The Wildcats are now 29-2 overall and are winners of 17 straight, making the State Championship for the first time. Huey Blalock is coming off maybe on his most impressive games of his career, and Trace Adcock is shooting at a high clip from downtown. Meanwhile, Southwest Macon has been here before. In fact, they led deep into the final quarter last year in the title game before losing to BEST Academy. Experience matters a whole lot – and this team has it, as well as talent.
