Clinch County punched its ticket to the state semifinals

last Friday night, and Traviian Miller helped the

Panthers do that. The sophomore quarterback for the Panthers accounted for 234 yards and all four of the team’s touchdowns as

Clinch knocked off Wheeler County 27-22 in the

quarterfinals of the Class A, Division II state playoffs. The

game was played in Homerville.

For his outstanding performance, Miller has been

chosen by 912 Sports as the Coastal Pines Technical

College Player of the Week in our Southeast Georgia

coverage area.

912 Sports has given out this award each week during

the 2025 high school football season. He also won the

award back in Week 4.

In Friday’s game, Miller was 8-of-14 passing for 150

yards and a touchdown. He ran for another 84 yards and three touchdowns.

“He just continues to make plays,” said Clinch assistant

coach Jeff Braddy who coaches the team’s quarterbacks.

“One play that stands out is when we were down 22-21

with under four minutes to go. It was fourth-and-10 on

our own 26-yard line. ‘Chuck’ scrambles for 12 yards to

convert.

“He followed that up by completing a pass to Kamarion

Johnson that would set us up with first-and-goal. He

scored the go-ahead touchdown two plays later.”

With the win, Clinch remained unbeaten on the season

as the Panthers ran their record to 13-0. They went into the playoffs as the state’s No. 2-ranked team.

The loss was the first for Wheeler which went into the

quarterfinals with a perfect 12-0 record as well.

This Friday night, the Panthers will host Bowdon for a

spot in the state championship game. Bowdon (11-2),

ranked No. 3, defeated Jenkins County 49-22 last week.

The Red Devils have won the last three state

championships in this classification.

The New Hampstead flag football team is set

to begin the state playoffs this week with Mila

Cramer leading the team’s confident offense.

Cramer, a junior and the starting quarterback

for the Phoenix, accounted for 1,353 total

yards and 16 touchdowns this season while

helping New Hampstead to a 14-5 record

during the regular season.

Her outstanding play has led 912 Sports to

choose Cramer for the Coastal Pines Technical

College Girls Student-Athlete of the Week

award for our Southeast Georgia coverage

area.

New Hampstead coach Trey Lanier has high

praise for his quarterback.

“Mila is a hard-working, intelligent and super

competitive athlete,” Lanier said. “She is fast

and athletic, and she goes 100 percent every

play.”

While running the team’s triple-option

offense, Cramer has rushed for 419 yards

while passing for 934 yards.

“She is more of a runner, decision-maker type

of quarterback,” Lanier said. “Her job is to

take what the defense gives her.”

The Phoenix enter the playoffs on a four-

game winning streak and finished the regular

season winning 10 of their final 11 games.

They will open the playoffs Thursday at

Jonesboro.
