The Georgia Athletic Coaches Association (GACA) unveiled their Class 6A All-State Team selections for the 2024-25 season. They hailed two squads, one representing Regions 1 to 4 and the other featuring players from Regions 5 to 8.

While there are two All-State teams, Grayson High School’s Santavious Bryant is the unanimous Coach of the Year choice. He led the Rams to a 14-1 record, ending with a Class 6A state championship victory over Carrollton. This title had Grayson finishing second in the final Georgia On3 Composite Team Rankings for 2024.

Speaking of the Trojans, Julian Lewis is the quarterback for the Class 6A Regions 1-4 All-State Team. The Colorado commit finished the season with 267 completions for 3,798 passing yards and 48 touchdowns. Lewis also has two rushing touchdowns out of 86 yards.

Meanwhile, the Georgia Athletic Coaches Association chose Tyler Atkinson and Jadon Perlotte as Class 6A Defensive Players of the Year. In addition to helping the Rams win the state title, Atkinson had 166 total tackles (32 for losses) and 13 sacks for the season. Meanwhile, Perlotte had 30 tackles and a sack in eight games for the Buford Wolves.

Likewise, North Gwinnett’s Ryan Hall is Lewis’ fellow Offensive Player of the Year. The running back finished the season with 89 carries for 604 yards and seven touchdowns. Hall finished his high school football career with 320 carries for 2,114 yards and 27 touchdowns.
