Jefferson coach T. McFerrin doesn’t see a scenario where his program can win the Region 8-AA championship without a win against No. 7 Washington-Wilkes (5-0, 2-0) on Friday at Memorial Stadium. Jefferson’s fourth-year coach knows the math doesn’t add up in the Dragons’ favor to stay in the race for the region title with a loss, considering they still have region games against a quickly rising Rabun County (3-1, 1-0) and talented Union County (3-1, 0-1) still left on the schedule.
