Written By Todd Holcomb

Fannin County added more adventures to its new-heights tour last week under seventh-year head coach Chad Cheatham, an alumnus.

The 28-7 victory over Rabun County was Fannin’s first over a ranked team since 1995. Fannin’s new ranking, No. 5 in Class A Division I, is the highest in school history.

The victory was Fannin County’s 34th this decade. Fannin won 35 games in the full previous decade.

Also achieved this decade and under Cheatham have been Fannin’s first region title in 13 years and first 10-win season and quarterfinal finish in 25 years.

Fannin County is GHSF Daily’s Team of the Week. The award is sponsored by BSN Sports and Georgia Construction Careers.
