Rabun Gap's football program, which began in 2009, has grown into a national powerhouse. It has already been a historic season. On August 25, the Eagles faced Baylor School in Chattanooga on national television as a part of ESPN's High School Kickoff. The six-game series featured the top high school teams in the country and was aired live on ESPN. This was the first time a Rabun Gap team has played on national television. Although Rabun Gap came up short against Baylor, the game was an amazing experience and kickoff to an exciting season.  The team went on to defeat Christ School 61-6 in Asheville on August 30.
