The Eagles of Coach Kevin Reach have won three straight after an opening loss to Central Gwinnett. Peachtree Ridge went 0-2 early with some offensive woes, but now the Lions have won two of their last three and are 2-1 in 7-AAAAAA.
The Bulldogs (1-1 in 7-AAAAAA) were ranked among the state's five top teams early, before the loss to Norcross (3-0 in 7-AAAAAA). But a region title still is within reach for North, but it will need help.
