Vote: Georgia High School Football Coach of the Week (9/24/2024)

We have chosen five candidates from last week's games

Georgia high school football is back and so begins our Coach of the Week poll for the entire state. Coaches around the Peach State led their teams to big wins in Week 6 of the regular season.

As such, we have five head coaches nominated this week for the SBLive’s Georgia High School Football Coach of the Week award from September 19-21, and we ask you, the fans, to help decide who should indeed be the coach selected.

Congratulations to last week's winner: Joey King, Carrollton

In a battle of two Georgia powers, it would be Joey King's Trojans pulling away with a key victory. King's team cruised to a 45-16 win over Gainesville.

Here are this week's nominees:

Matt LeZotte, Richmond Hill

LeZotte guided his Richmond Hill team to a thrilling 35-28 win over Buchholz (Florida) and improving to 5-0.

Shane Sams, Warner Robins

Since the Week 1 loss, Sams has his team on a roll. Warner Robins has won four games in a row and sit at 4-1.

Josh Niblett, Gainesville

Needing to bounce back from a loss to Carrollton, Niblett led his team to victory in a big way. Gainesville cruised to a 51-14 win over Lanier.

Mike Hancock, Apalachee

We know the Wildcats didn't play a game, but Hancock being able to lead his team back onto the practice field after the deadly shooting that took several lives earlier this month says enough about the Apalachee lead man's leadership.

Garrett Grady, Brunswick

Another coach that's led his team to four wins in a row is Grady, with the Pirates now at 4-1 after a 2-14 win over Greenbrier.
