Colquitt County Packers 2024 Football Preview

We tell you everything you need to know about the 2024 Colquitt County High School football team in this preview, including roster changes and what fans can expect from the Packers this season.

2023 Stats

  • Overall Record: 12-1
  • Points Scored: 572
  • Points Allowed: 288

Key Losses

The Packers lose some top talent from last year’s 12-win team on both the offensive and defensive sides of the ball. 

Tight end Landen Thomas, wide receiver Ny Carr, and quarterback Neko Fann were the heart and soul of a Colquitt County offense that averaged 44 points per game in 2023, and their production and leadership will be missed. 

On defense, Colquitt County’s linebacker corps has been hit hard by graduation. Gone are Nick Pace, Tyshon Reed, and Kenyon Solomon. Pace led the team in tackles last year with 151, while Reed and Solomon led the team in sacks with seven combined. 

Defensive back Ka’marian Williams had a team-leading four interceptions in 2023. 

Who’s Back

Returning to lead the Colquitt County defense are a couple of senior defensive linemen in Jartavius Flounoy and Amari Wilson, along with senior defensive back Jah’Boris Fuller.  

Linebacker Chance Sims, who was second in team tackles behind Pace last season, returns for his junior season. 

The offense welcomes back running backs Day’shawn Brown and Ramsey Dennis, along with O-linemen Khalil Collins and Casey Scott. 

Special teams has always been a major part of the Pack’s success, and having the duo of kicker Brett Fitzgerald and long snapper Chason Glenn back is a huge benefit for Colquitt County. 

Fuller will also see time on special teams as a returner in 2024.  

What to Expect

Colquitt County lost a lot of the talent responsible for the team’s 25 wins and back-to-back region championships over the past two seasons. 

However, head coach Sean Calhoun has a lot of talent in the pipeline due to Colquitt County’s middle school success, and that should keep the Pack in good shape heading into this season and beyond. 

“I feel excited and anxious to see how this team gels and plays together during the spring, summer, and the fall,” Calhoun said. “We will have a lot of new faces, but those faces are very talented and know what it means to play Packer football.”

Prediction

The Packers reload and make a run at the Class 6A state championship with a 14-1 record.  

Game to Watch

Lee County comes to Mack Tharpe Stadium on Sept. 13 in one of the state’s top non-region games of the season.
