REGION 2-1A
White (16-3) at Clay (12-1), 7 p.m.
A good one in Green Cove Springs. Both teams have been rock-solid on defense, and for Clay, Teaghan Moses has been at the controls of an offense that's won its last six. The Commanders counter with a deadly pass rush led by sophomore Elyhana Perez-Stevenson (25 sacks) and a secondary sparked by Tyra Pierce. White edged the Blue Devils 14-13 in last year's district tournament. The winner plays in a sectional final against Choctawhatchee or Florida High on May 3.
