I would also like to give a big thank you and congratulations to everyone that made Friday night an awesome event. The Cheerleaders, Band, Red Hots, Dance Dogs, Diamond Dogs, and AFJROTC began the night with our pregame festivities and set the tone for what was to be a special night. The atmosphere around Veterans Memorial was unbelievable as the crowd arrived early and brought the energy all night! On the field, the Thomasville Bulldogs football team defeated the Callaway Cavaliers by a score of 31-6 to reach the GHSA AA State Championship game that will be played Friday at noon at Center Parc Stadium in Atlanta. This marks the first time since 1993 that the Bulldogs will play in the State Championship.
