The Glynn Academy Red Terrors have been just that to the rest of Georgia high school football since the arrival of head coach Rocky Hidalgo.
Under Hidalgo the Terrors have amassed a record of 32-9 (78%) including a playoff record of 8-3 (72%). Making the quarterfinals in each of their first three seasons, including a state championship appearance in 2015, Glynn has established itself as a perennial power in the state.

Frederica Academy saw their season end last year in the second round of the playoffs against Deerfield Windsor. The Knights have improved the last two seasons in the win column.
Two years ago they went 7-4 and last year that went 9-2. I don’t see the trend stopping this year.
Head coach Brandon Derrick’s Knights are a little more dialed in this year. They could make a lot of noise in the next few months.
