The Statesboro Blue Devils have advanced to the state playoffs in each of the last three seasons, but have been unable to take the next step of winning a state playoff game. Friday the No. 4 seeded Blue Devils traveled to No. 1 seeded Evans and fell behind early 21-0. Statesboro was unable to fight back from that deficit, as their season came to an end falling 42-21.
