JACKSONVILLE, Fla — Ware County you've finally got a state champion in football!

The Ware County Gators capped off a memorable, undefeated 2022 season with a 38-13 win over two-time defending state champion Warner Robins in the GHSA 5A state championship game.

It was the Gators' fourth trip to the state title game in the school's history and this time they came out on top, beating the Demons handily Saturday at Center Parc Stadium in Atlanta.
