Defense Delivers: Picayune Secures Fourth Straight Region Title
SUMMARY: Picayune defeated George County 27-20, showcasing a strong defensive performance that secured their fourth straight region championship. The victory grants Picayune home-field advantage in the playoffs, finishing with an 8-2 overall record and 4-0 in region play. Despite facing standout quarterback Deuce Knight, Picayune’s defense, led by BJ Ducre with three sacks, thwarted critical drives, especially in the game’s final moments. While Picayune’s offense relied heavily on the running game, they struggled with ball security, fumbling four times. The Maroon Tide will conclude their regular season against Hancock, while George County faces Pascagoula.
