First Team, Second Team and Honorable Mention selections recognize Savannah-area players who earned respect through work, toughness and consistency.

At the Prep Sports Report, we believe football is about more than wins and losses. It’s about effort, toughness, and doing things the right way. This All-Region list recognizes the players who showed that every week. These athletes earned respect from coaches across their regions for how they practiced, competed, and led their teams.

This year’s honors include several standout Players of the Year from the Savannah area, including Bubba Frazier of Benedictine, Stephen Cannon of Benedictine, James Mobley of Calvary Day, Domonique Johnson of Jenkins, Blaise Thomas of Savannah Christian, and Raleigh Wesley in SCISA. We also recognize Coaches of the Year who set the standard, including Tony Wech of Jenkins and Antwain Turner in SCISA. What follows are the All-Region First Team, Second Team, and Honorable Mention selections across GHSA, GIAA, and SCISA. These lists reflect hard work, consistency, and respect earned on the field.
