Lowndes vs. Valdosta: How to watch live Georgia high school football Winnersville Classic rivalry game
The 56th edition of the Winnersville Classic arrives with championship implications as the undefeated Lowndes Vikings (9-0, 4-0) travel to Bazemore-Hyder Field to face the Valdosta Wildcats (8-1, 3-1) in Friday’s Class 6A Region 1 regular-season finale.
Lowndes, seeking its first perfect regular season since 2019, brings a high-powered offense led by quarterback Jayce Johnson and the explosive backfield duo of Mason Woods and Ar’Tavian Brown.
The Wildcats, whose only blemish came against Colquitt County, counter with their own offensive firepower behind quarterback Tyrieke Wade and playmaker Deron Foster.
With both teams averaging over 40 points per game, defensive standouts like Lowndes linebacker Garrick Harris and Valdosta’s formidable front seven featuring Jevaris Kier and Tremaine Johnson could determine who claims bragging rights in Georgia’s most celebrated high school football rivalry.
Opening kickoff is set for 7:30 p.m. ET on Friday, October 31 with a live TV broadcast on NFHS Network.

A Griffin, Georgia man is now under arrest, charged in connection with a cold case homicide investigation in New Jersey, prosecutors say.
It’s been nearly 37 years since 42-year-old Mauricio Cuadra was shot during an apparent home invasion; now, authorities say 62-year-old Joseph Quiros-Soto is charged with his murder.
Officials say on Aug. 9, 1989, the officers with the Bayonne Police Department responded to reports of a home invasion and shooting at an apartment on the 400 block of Avenue C. Inside the home, they found Cuadra suffering from a gunshot wound. Cuadra died shortly after.
The case remained a mystery until 2024, when Quiros-Soto confessed to the murder to police in Locust Grove, Georgia, saying that he had become a born-again Christian, NJ.com reports.
Police told the outlet that he gave the detectives details of the crime and allowed visiting Hudson County authorities to take a DNA sample, which matched a stain on the victim.
Authorities were eventually able to obtain a warrant for the Georgia man’s arrest. On May 27, 2026, deputies with the Spalding County Sheriff’s Office arrested Quiros-Soto at his home in Griffin, charging him with murder and murder during the commission of a burglary.
Quiros-Soto is being detained in Georgia, awaiting extradition to New Jersey.
