STORY 6:   No. 7 Collins Hill Rallies Past No. 6 Mill Creek in Defensive Battle

Despite being outgained 291-181, Collins Hill's defense held strong, forcing three turnovers and shutting out Mill Creek in the second half. The win keeps Collins Hill's region title hopes alive, needing Mill Creek to defeat Buford for a potential three-way tie.
