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.

ATHENS, Ga. – Designated hitter Daniel Jackson and centerfielder Rylan Lujo combined for nine RBI Sunday, leading fifth-ranked Georgia to a 12-1 win over LSU at Foley Field.
Georgia improved to 41-11 overall, 21-6 in the SEC, while LSU dropped to 29-24 overall and 9-18 in conference play.
The Tigers return to action at 6:30 p.m. CT Thursday when they play host to Florida in Game 1 of a three-game SEC series in Alex Box Stadium, Skip Bertman Field. Thursday’s game will be broadcast on the LSU Sports Radio Network and streamed on SEC Network +.
“Georgia won the moments in this series,” said LSU coach Jay Johnson. “They’re going to score, so you’ve got to capitalize against them when you have scoring opportunities on offense.”
Georgia starting pitcher Caden Aoki (8-0) was the winner, limiting LSU to one run on four hits in 5.0 innings with two walks and seven strikeouts.
LSU right-hander Casan Evans (2-3), making his first appearance since April 17 versus Texas A&M, started the game Sunday and was charged with the loss, working 1.2 innings and allowing four runs on four hits with two walks and three strikeouts.
“I thought Casan’s stuff looked great, and that’s good for him from a health standpoint,” Johnson said. “He’s a guy that the more he pitches, the better he is, so there might have been a little bit of rust, but I thought he competed fine.”
Georgia struck for four runs in the bottom of the second inning in an outburst highlighted by Jackson’s two-out, two-run single and an RBI single by second baseman Ryan Black.
The Tigers narrowed the gap to 4-1 in the third when designated hitter Omar Serna Jr. delivered an RBI single.
Georgia extended its lead to 7-1 in the fourth as Jackson launched a two-run homer and centerfielder Lujo lined a run-scoring single.
Lujo unloaded a grand slam in the fifth, giving the Bulldogs an 11-1 advantage.
