A home playoff game could be on the line Friday in Sugar Hill when the Chestatee War Eagles visit the Lanier Longhorns in a pivotal Region 8-AAAA matchup. Chestatee (5-1, 3-0) is currently in a tie with fourth-ranked Monroe Area for first place in the region standings, one game ahead of Lanier (5-1, 2-1). Although the Longhorns have already lost to Monroe Area, a win over the War Eagles would put them in the discussion of hosting their first-ever playoff game and would likely force Chestatee to have to win the rest of its games — including Nov. 1 against unbeaten Monroe — to avoid going on the road in the first round.
