Commerce fell to George Walton 24-14 on Friday in Monroe.

Turnovers continued to impact the Tigers, who gave up 24 unanswered points after taking a 7-0 lead to open the first quarter.

Commerce (3-6, 2-3) faces a must-win situation next week versus Social Circle to lock up the No. 4 playoff spot in Region 8-A.

The Bulldogs (7-2, 4-1) secured home field advantage in the first round of the state playoffs as the region’s No. 2 seed. Undefeated Prince Avenue claimed the No. 1 seed after its win over Athens Christian. It’s the Wolverines’ first region championship in school history.

Commerce suffered its first Region 8-A loss last week to Athens Academy in Tiger Stadium.

Athens Academy capitalized on two Commerce turnovers in the third quarter to secure a critical Region 8-A win.

The Spartans outscored the Tigers 21-10 despite the teams' near even offensive yardage.

Quarterback Cody Streetman, who twice left the game because of injury, scored Commerce's lone touchdown on a 1-yard run that made the score 12-7 by halftime.

Josh Swistak added a field goal at the beginning of the fourth quarter, Commerce's only score of the second half.

Commerce (3-4, 2-1) travels to Prince Avenue (7-0, 3-0) next week.
