Are you ready for another round of picks?

at Mt. Pisgah: Already locked in as the No. 2 seed from Region 5-A North for next week’s play-in games, Wesleyan plays at Mount Pisgah Friday in the regular-season subregion finale for both teams. Mount Pisgah (4-4, 2-3) still has a chance to post a winning record. Wesleyan (6-2, 4-1) has won four in a row and are peaking at the right time. Wesleyan 30, Mt. Pisgah 20.

Collins Hill at : The winner of this game will likely earn the No. 3 seed in Region 7-AAAAA, considering both teams will be strong favorites in their games next week. Norcross (6-2, 3-2) had been rolling along until three weeks ago, then lost consecutive games to North Gwinnett and Peachtree Ridge, dashing its region title hopes. Collins Hill (4-4, 3-2), which was 1-3 at one point, has been playing its best football of the season and has won three of four. With its multi-faceted offensive talent, Norcross has the capability of beating nearly anyone. Norcross gets a homefield edge. Norcross 30, Collins Hill 27.
