One of the two surviving teams from Region 4-AAAAA made the Georgia High School Association state AAAAA Final Four, but it wasn't the region champion ranked second in Georgia. Harrison, which tied for first in Region 4-AAAAA during the regular season but finished third in the region tournament, grabbed a spot in the Final Four, while North Cobb fell one game short. In a battle of teams unranked in the PrepCountry/Georgia Athletic Coaches Association AAAAA top 10, Harrison jumped out to a 21-5 lead after the first quarter in Fort Valley and rolled into the Final Four. Ryan Blumenthal led the Hoyas with 27 points, The Marietta Daily Journal and The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported. Also in double figures were Jay Bowyer with 13, …

North Cobb and Harrison are out of the Georgia High School Association girls basketball tournament after losing to fellow Region 4-AAAAA members Hillgrove and McEachern, respectively, Saturday. Meanwhile, Allatoona’s first taste of tournament success also came to an end short of the AAA Final Four. Details of the games are below. McEachern 69, Harrison 32 McEachern beat fellow Region 4-AAAAA school Harrison for the fourth time this season to raise its record to 31-0, while the Lady Hoyas ended the year 16-15. After beating Harrison by 57 points two weeks ago and coming off a 43-point win and 61-point first half against Westlake, the top-ranked Lady Indians had a sluggish start in Fort Valley and led only 29-14 at halftime, The Atlanta …

Take your pick of which tweet summed up North Cobb Christian's stunning 65-63 home loss to St. Francis in the first round of the Georgia High School Association's Class A boys basketball playoffs Saturday night: Perhaps North Cobb Christian, ranked No. 1 in Georgia in Class A, was looking ahead to an expected second-round game against second-ranked Whitefield, the team that knocked the Eagles out of the playoffs last year. Perhaps the Eagles had a letdown after completing an undefeated regular season with a Region 6-A championship win over crosstown rival Mount Paran Christian. Perhaps the regular-season schedule wasn’t rough enough to prepare the Eagles for tournament pressure. Perhaps St. Francis played its best game of the season. Or …

This year’s Georgia High School Association AAAAA girls basketball tournament started out just like last year’s—with Region 4-AAAAA dominating. Last year all four 4-AAAAA entrants—McEachern, North Cobb, Hillgrove and Campbell—made the quarterfinals, and the only teams that beat 4-AAAAA teams were other teams from the region and state champion Norcross. Friday night, all four 4-AAAAA teams—McEachern, Hillgrove, North Cobb and Harrison—won their first-round games against Region 3-AAAAA teams, and they’re a Tuesday-night sweep away from matching 2011’s quarterfinal quartet. While the two Powder Springs teams started at home, the Kennesaw entrants from 4-AAAAA had to take a long bus ride Friday, but it was worth it. Harrison pulled off the …

Three Kennesaw schools will host first-round games in the Georgia High School Association state boys basketball tournaments Saturday, while one boys team and two girls teams will hit the road. Both North Cobb teams will open the state AAAAA playoffs against Bradwell Institute, and both Harrison teams face trips to Savannah. Meanwhile, North Cobb Christian’s boys will try to extend their perfect season at home. North Cobb Christian, the Region 6-A champion, carries the state’s top Class A ranking and an undefeated record into Saturday’s home game against Region 5-A’s third seed, St. Francis. If the Eagles win, they’ll likely face the No. 2 team in the state, Whitefield Academy, in the second round. Mount Paran Christian School, which lost …
