One of the possibly best seasons ever for a Georgia high school football program looks to be for not as they will be forced to forfeit eight of their wins from the 2025 season.

According to multiple reports, Locust Grove (Ga.) is being forced by the GHSA to forfeit eight wins from the 2025 high school football season. The Wildcats went 8-3 and reached the Class 4A playoffs, losing to Centennial, 28-21.

Class 4A, Region 2 for the second straight season saw a football program have to forfeit games due to having an ineligible player, with Stockbridge doing so in 2024. With the Wildcats having to vacate all of their wins from 2025, it brings into question how the program will rebound from technically a winless campaign.

Locust Grove has multiple Division I, Power 4 prospects slated to return for the 2026 season, including Class of 2028 four-star offensive lineman Timi Aliu and EDGE rusher Darion Newton.

The Wildcats ended this past season finishing ranked No. 132, according to the final 2025 Georgia High School Football Massey Rankings.
