The David Emanuel Academy football team continued its unbeaten run Friday night, putting together another explosive offensive performance to defeat Fullington Academy 68-40 and improve to a perfect 6-0 on the season.
The victory was the latest chapter in a season that has seen the Eagles find different ways to win. DEA opened the year with a 49-6 victory over Georgia Christian before battling past Citizens Christian 20-14. Since then, the Eagles have defeated John Hancock Academy 58-0, Vidalia Heritage Academy 14-0, Coastal Homeschool 50-26 and Fullington 68-40.
For the representatives, football players, king and queen, the night was a special opportunity to create lasting memories with their friends and family. The celebration demonstrated that homecoming is about more than a single event-it is a tradition that brings people together to celebrate DEA pride and community.
