GAUTIER, Miss. (WXXV SPORTS)- For week 11 of the 2026 high school football season, the Gautier Gators are the final winners of our Game Ball of the Week sponsored by Ball Heating and Air.

After defeating the Pascagoula Panthers by a final score of 49-42 last Thursday, Gautier earned its sixth win overall and has clinched a playoff spot. They will face off against West Jones this Friday.

Pascagoula and Gautier traded blows all game long, but Gautier ultimately came away with the victory in the final 20 seconds. Head Football Coach Marc High said, “It’s a great opportunity for the kids, sponsored by Ball Heating and Air and WXXV, to get out here and showcase this wonderful community and this wonderful school.”
