This is the first 7A state title in GA history. 

Grayson and Roswell have tied all time record vs one another. 

Roswell has never been home against Grayson. They have always traveled to Grayson. 

If Roswell wins this will be their 4th state title. 

If Grayson wins this will be their 2nd state title. 

Roswell opened back in 1950 and played in what is now known as 4A.

Grayson opened in 2000. as a 4A school

 

 Grayson made their first playoff appearance in 2002 when they got dropped to 3A. they lost in the 2nd round to Cedartown(A now 2A school). 

Roswell made their 1st playoff appearance in 1956 losing to Monticello (2A now) in the state finals

Roswell won their 1st state title in 1968 

Over the Irwin Indians (Now Barely a 1A school)

Roswell Came close to winning a state title the year prior but lost in the semifinals to St.Josephs(Defunct)

Roswell won their 2nd title in 1970 over Warren County (Now also barely a 1A school) 

Roswell won their 3rd in 2006 over a very complicated tie. 

Roswell has more losses in state title games than wins...

Where do you see 25 state titles? It says 24 on ghsfha & 23 on the Valdosta website.

Another fun fact....

GPB is expecting as many as 1,000 people in the Dome to watch the Roswell/Grayson game.

There's  a 1,000 alone of the best underclessmen that the Atlanta Metro Area has coming. Look at it like an unofficial visit for these kids trying to better there Athletic and Academic opportunities next year at either Rowell or Grayson 

meanwhile at Colquitt maybe you guys will get lucky and get a back up long snapper from Thomasville. ?

Gotta compete with Atlanta somehow

Tucker gonna beat Valdosta for the South Georgia sweep!  Colquitt , NSWR, and Valdosta gonna be on the resume to finish 2016. 

Vann- knew that kid was a stud the moment I saw him against Kell. Had some GROWN MAN plays against NSWR last week, too. Probably gonna throw up the Heisman on Valdosta this weekend.

Are you sure you're from around here? everyone from south Georgia knows that Warner Robins aint apart of South GA.

Smh, yes, yes it is. That's why their coaches do that South Georgia radio show. That's why they list them and Warner Robins every Friday night in their scoring round up. 

Stay woke, kid
