EAGLE PRIDE
ATHLETICS
FOOTBALL
Jordan Yates passed for 177 yards and ran for 96 more to lead the Eagles to a 14-13 victory over top-ranked Colquitt County Wednesday night to capture the
Georgia High School Association Class 7A State Championship at Mercedes-Benz Stadium.
It was the first state championship in school history for Milton (13-2), who may have pulled off the biggest state championship game upset in 2018. The nationally-ranked Packers were held to 239 yards of total offense and found the end zone just one time in the game.
THANK YOU TO OUR PARENTS, STUDENT BODY & COMMUNITY FOR THE
AMAZING SUPPORT LEADING UP TO AND DURING THIS HISTORIC GAME!
