Here's more about the game from Georgia High School Football Daily:
When, where: 7:30 p.m. Friday, Tiger Stadium, Stockbridge
Records, rankings: Mays is 11-2, the No. 3 seed from Region 6-AAAAA and No. 7; Stockbridge is 11-2, the No. 1 seed from 4-AAAAA and unranked.
Last meeting: This is the teams' first meeting.
Three things to know: 1. Stockbridge, which opened in 1964, is the first Henry County public school ever to reach the semifinals. Mays, which opened in 1981 essentially as a replacement for Southwest Atlanta, is in the semifinals for the first time. The Raiders are the first city of Atlanta school to reach the semis since Grady in 2005. 2. Mays had a season-high 537 yards of total offense in its 44-41 victory against Jones County last week. QB Asahnia Aderhold, who has passed for more than 1,600 yards this season, was 25-for-39 in the quarterfinals for 352 yards and four touchdowns, including the game-winning 17-yarder to Julius Whitehead on the game's final play. Rowmartis Bell and Charlie Patrick lead the running game, which provides about 54 percent of the Raiders' total yardage. 3. Stockbridge is primarily a running team (255.8 yards per game), although QB Malachi Brown is a capable passer who has thrown for 1,300 yards, including 153 and three touchdowns in a 42-22 victory against Houston County last week. Artemus Mitchell, who ran for 113 yards in the quarterfinals, is the team's leading rusher with 1,278 yards. Brown is second with 899. Marquez Ezzard has 42 receptions for 506 yards.
