Emory Jones Helps Heard County Advance to State Semifinals While Season Comes to an End for Brenton Cox, K'Vaughan Pope

Before descending upon Columbus, the members of Ohio State's Supreme '18 recruiting class have one final shot at glory under the Friday night lights.

Ohio State quarterback commit Emory Jones scored three touchdowns to lead Heard County to a 28-14 win at Thomasville on Friday night, which helped the Braves reach the state semifinals for the first time in program history.

The first half was a back-and-forth affair, with both teams trading scores for a 14-all score at halftime. Heard County took an early lead when Jones found wide receiver Jaden Moreland for a 50-yard touchdown pass, while Thomasville responded with a 70-yard drive of their own.
