Wick’s Picks: The Predictions Are In For Nine Regular-Season Finales
SUMMARY: The high school football regular season concludes with preseason favorites dominating their regions. Ocean Springs claimed the Region 4-7A title despite a rough start, defeating Gulfport 20-3. Picayune rebounded from a 2-2 start to win the Region 4-6A for the fourth consecutive year. Other regional champions include Greene County and Gautier. Hosting first-round playoff games benefits the region winners, while second-place teams also enjoy home games.

Key games include Pascagoula vs. George County, D’Iberville at Biloxi, and Ocean Springs against St. Martin.

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.
