MHSAA 3A Quarterfinals

Schedule and Projections

Interesting Quarterfinals Games

Noxubee County (18-13) #81 travels 104 miles to ICC vs Holly Springs (24-7) #22 travels 79 miles to ICC- Noxubee County is on a good playoff run but senior Derek Fountain and Holly Springs come in with some momentum after beating Coahoma EC on their turf. Holly keeps things rolling and gets to the Big House again. I expect this game to be a lot closer than most are expecting.

Yazoo County (19-11) #39 travels 204 miles to MCC vs St. Andrew’s Episcopal (26-6) #35 travels 175 miles to MCC-Yazoo County leads the series 2-1 this season. Will junior Rashad Bolden be able to settle the score or will Yazoo County get to the next stage. This will be an amazing game to watch.

North Panola (21-9) #71 travels 104 miles to ICC vs Houston (21-10) #77 travels 62 miles to ICC- Sophomore DaeDae Hunter comes in with North Panola to face a hungry Houston squad. The high flying Houston team looks to take the show to the Big House. This will be another great game to catch.

Velma Jackson (28-5) #16 travels 210 miles to MCC vs Jefferson Davis County (21-8) #74 travels 107 miles to MCC- JDC comes in looking to pull off the upset of the defending champs. Junior Josh Lee and Velma have dominated 3A all year and I don’t see them letting up at this point.

Biggest Potential Upset According to MaxPreps Rankings

If Noxubee County pulls out the win over Holly Springs that would be two huge wins in two weeks for them.
