SEASON STORY
Two road wins changed the last page.
Greenbrier was 2–6 at fall break and outside the Region 5-4A playoff field. The Bobcats returned with wins at Creek Wood and Montgomery Central, finishing fifth in an eight-team region.
The season opened with a 10–0 lead at Springfield and a 20–10 loss, then Portland won 42–6. Homecoming supplied the first win: Nolan Carson threw two touchdown passes to Travarius Flood, the defense allowed only 35 yards and Greenbrier shut out Whites Creek 21–0.
A four-game region stretch brought losses to Marshall County, Station Camp, White House and Pearl-Cohn. The narrowest was the hinge point: Greenbrier led Station Camp 20–3 at halftime before the Bison scored 23 unanswered. Between those region losses, Carson returned from injury and threw three touchdowns to Flood in a 27–15 road win over White House Heritage.
After Pearl-Cohn’s 35–0 win, the fall-break notebook framed the remaining path plainly. Greenbrier answered by scoring the final 21 points at Creek Wood and then beating Montgomery Central 21–12. The closing pair did not produce a playoff berth, but it moved the Bobcats from 2–6 to 4–6 and made the road record a winning one.

PEOPLE AND MOMENTS
Carson, Flood and a defense at its best
Nolan Carson’s dual-threat workload defined the season’s most detailed surviving reports. Travarius Flood scored twice in the region opener, three times at White House Heritage and committed to Austin Peay during the season. Dre Thomas, Reese Jones, Tyler Adams, Dalton Wilbur, Nate Castleman, Carsen Wood and Luke Meyer recur throughout the weekly notebooks.
SOURCE FILE
How this season was rebuilt
TSSAA controls dates, locations, region designations, finals and the final standings. Nine game-specific VOTC notebooks retain weekly context; because they were prepared before kickoff, their postgame statistics usually describe the previous game. The fall-break document bridges Pearl-Cohn to the final two weeks. Contemporary reports, galleries and two WSMV clips add independent coverage.
Known limits: no Week 10 VOTC notebook has been located; Portland and Montgomery Central survive in photo galleries rather than full reports; Pearl-Cohn’s Main Street item is a schedule listing, not a recap; and one White House notebook line calls the rivalry both the 48th and 81st meeting. The site uses the internally consistent 81st-meeting count and leaves the contradiction documented here.
