WDAM 7 Game of the Week: Laurel at Hattiesburg (opens the original)
Read excerpt
HATTIESBURG, Miss. (WDAM) - The WDAM 7 Game of the Week is the 105th Little Brown Jug game. Another chapter will be written in the longest continuous rivalry in Mississippi. For the last four years, the jug has belonged to Hattiesburg, but Laurel is looking to change that. “That’s probably one of the top things we want to get more than a gold ball,” said Laurel junior quarterback Brysen Bivins. This trophy represents more than just bragging rights; it’s the centerpiece of a rivalry that’s lasted
Pine Belt Blitz: Stringer (opens the original)

STRINGER, Miss. (WDAM) - Every Friday night, Stringer football wants to be the most physical team on the field. That mentality helped the Red Devils accomplish their goal last season: hosting and winning a playoff game. Now, as Stringer prepares for the 2026 season, that physical style is still their identity. “We’re built for it,” said Stringer head coach Dan Brady. “Everything we do during the summer, during practice, it’s about finishing.

BAY SPRINGS, Miss. (WDAM) - Bay Springs football is built on physicality. For years, the Bulldogs have won by controlling the line of scrimmage and running the football. After being eliminated by East Marion in the second round of the playoffs last year, Bay Springs is looking to get back to that identity in 2026. “It was a sour taste in our mouth last year when we lost in the second round,” head football coach Regrick Young said. “We had expectations of going further than what we did, and we di

WAYNESBORO, Miss. (WDAM) - Wayne Academy football has been knocking on the door of a state championship game. After falling in the semifinal round in each of the last two seasons, the Jaguars enter 2026 hoping a veteran roster can finally help them break through and capture their first MAIS state championship since 1999. “We’ve made it to the semi-finals the past two years, and we’ve came up short both times,” said senior receiver and safety Caden Lowery. “We’re trying to reach the state title g
