GSWA Basketball Poll: Feb. 13
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Two weeks ago, Whitefield Academy got everyone’s attention with a 71-39 win over defending Class A champion Southwest Atlanta Christian. It was the Wolfpack’s statement game. Saturday, the Mableton school ended the regular season with an exclamation point. Whitefield traveled to Columbus and defeated Class AAA No. 6 Carver. Coach Tyrone Johnson loaded his schedule with some top in-state and out-of-town teams to prepare for another run at the finals. The tough schedule seems to be paying off with the region tournament now in full swing. Griffin has awakened in time and should be one of the most dangerous teams in the tournament. The Bears grabbed first place on their side of the Region 4-AAAA subregion.
Who’s hot, who’s not - you tell us. Submit your comments below.
