Top-ranked Picayune gained some payback Friday, defeating Pascagoula 24-10 to extend its winning streak to 14 games. At the same time, the 6-0 Maroon Tide took sole possession of first place in Region 4-5A. This week -- the other two unbeaten teams in the Sun Herald South Mississippi Top 10 -- St. Stanislaus (7-0) and Ocean Springs (7-0) -- face key contests as they continue their quest for a region title. Second-ranked St. Stanislaus returns home to face No. 8 Poplarville (6-1) in a game that could be pivotal in deciding the Region 8-4A championship. Two years ago, these two teams played a classic on SSC's home field as Poplarville beat SSC 82-80 -- and there was no overtime. SSC has lost only one game over the past two seasons. Third-ranked Ocean Springs also returns home to face Harrison Central (4-4), which is in the midst of a four-game losing streak. The Greyhounds are coming off a 35-21 victory at Biloxi.
