Two area high school football teams are playoff bound. After Friday's 31-0 victory over Campbell, Region 4AAAAAA runner-up North Cobb is set to play Valdosta at Emory Sewell Stadium. It will be North Cobb's first home state playoff game since 2007, according to the Marietta Daily Journal. Elsewhere in North Cobb, Region 5AAAAA runner-up Allatoona will host Heritage-Conyers this week in the first round of the state playoffs. The Bucs hope to bounce back after Friday's 25-7 loss to East Paulding. It was Allatoona's first loss of the season. Related content

Allatoona High School in Acworth will hold its Second Annual Prom Dress Consignment Sale this Saturday from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. The event was founded in 2011 by Allatoona student Nina Brante, who's the President and Founder of Strength in Stilettos, and Kennesaw Mountain High School student Paige Smith. The goal of the dress sale is to make prom affordable and memorable for all. Last year the event had more than 300 dresses available for purchase, and proceeds were donated to local school programs. Girls were able to sell last year’s dress to earn cash and shop for “new” dresses. Sellers can choose to donate any unsold dresses to Becca’s Closet, a non-profit that provides prom dresses to needy girls.
