After two games on the road, Mays is heading back home. They will welcome Drew at 2:00 p.m. on Saturday. Drew took a loss in their last contest and will be looking to turn the tables on Mays, who comes in off a win.
Mays is headed in fresh off scoring the most points they have all season. They breezed by Midtown to the tune of 41-0 on Friday. Given the Raiders' advantage in MaxPreps' Georgia football rankings (they are ranked 73rd, while the Knights are ranked 382nd), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Clayton Coppock was his usual excellent self, rushing for 120 yards and two touchdowns, while also throwing for 94 yards and two touchdowns. He showed off some serious burst, turning on the afterburners on one carry for 54 yards. Another player making a difference was Kamari Johnson, who rushed for 82 yards and a touchdown on only six carries.
Mays was unstoppable on the ground and finished the game with 318 rushing yards. That's a new trend for them: they were averaging 91.5 rushing yards per game earlier this season, but in their last three matches they've averaged 272.

Johnson is also on a roll when it comes to total tackles, as he's now made five or more in the last four games he's played. Savion Husband was another major factor on D, picking up a sack and making 16 total tackles.
Despite a strong season so far, Drew has seen their luck take a bit of a downturn recently. They came up short against M.L. King on Friday, falling 38-13.
