Benedictine enters 2022 as Georgia’s reigning 4A champ. The Cadets, who finished last season in the High School Football America 300 , powered by NFL Play Football , will play a very challenging schedule this year with matchups against two Florida teams that were nationally-ranked in 2021.
On August 26, Benedictine will face Miami’s Christopher Columbus High School. Last year, Columbus finished No. 120 in the national in 2021. The Cadets will travel to Jacksonville on September 23 to play The Bolles School that finished No. 148 in America last season.
Class AAAA picked-up several private schools from the Georgia High School Association’s two-year realignment . 2021 1A-Private champ Trinity Christian moves into Region 4 after asking to play-up.
Region 4 is considered one of the toughest in the class with TC joining LaGrange, Riverdale, Starr’s Mill, Troup County and Whitewater.
Holy Innocents’ and Pace Academy are two other privates moving into 4A. Moving-out of 4A is 2020 champ Marist, which moves-up to 6A.
