Raiders Head Into Final Regular Season Game Undefeated in the Region

The Habersham Central Raiders are closing out an impressive season, entering their final regular season game with a 7–2 overall record and an undefeated 5–0 run in region play. It’s been a year defined by grit, teamwork, and steady determination — and Raiders fans across the county are proud to cheer them on.

From explosive plays on offense to disciplined defense and strong leadership on the sidelines, this team has shown what it means to play with heart. Week after week, the Raiders have taken the field with focus and confidence, earning hard-fought wins and building momentum at exactly the right time.

As they step into their last regular season matchup, community spirit is running high. Students, alumni, families, and longtime Raider supporters are invited to show up loud, proud, and ready to cheer. Whether you’ll be in the stands, listening on the radio, or wearing blue and orange around town — your support matters.

Habersham Has What it Takes to Win

Tomorrow night, the Habersham Central Raiders (7–2) will face one of their toughest challenges of the season as they take on the Jackson County Panthers (8–1) in a matchup that has major region implications and plenty of excitement surrounding it. Both teams have shown strength, discipline, and the ability to finish games, setting the stage for a competitive showdown under the lights. With Habersham’s momentum and Jackson County’s proven record, fans can expect a hard-fought battle from start to finish — the kind of game where every drive, every stop, and every play matters.

The Raiders have already punched their ticket to the playoffs. No matter how the game ends tomorrow night, the Raiders will have home field advantage. Naturally, Raiders fans want the regular season to end with a victory of the Panthers.

Peaking at the right time

This season also marks the strongest statistical performance of Head Coach Benji Harrison’s tenure at Habersham Central. Not only have the Raiders posted their best win–loss record under his leadership, but they have also dominated on the scoreboard, outscoring opponents 283 to 136 over the course of the season. That point differential reflects a balanced team firing on all cylinders — a confident offense capable of putting points on the board, and a disciplined defense that consistently holds its ground.

This team has shown what Habersham pride looks like.

Let’s carry that same energy into this final game — and beyond.

Go Raiders!

Finish strong — we’re behind you all the way.
