A late rally couldn’t prevent a date with destiny. Jenkins will now face Morgan County in a rematch of last year’s heart-stopping 62-60 champion in which Eric Johnson floated up a left handed lay with seconds left to crown Jenkins state champions. The Warriors took control early in their game with No.8 Cedar Grove and cruised to a 35-20 halftime lead by Dimitri Chambers and Trevion Lamar’s 10 points apiece. Cedar Grove began its crawl back into the game by outscoring the Warriors 20-14 in the third quarter and closed to 62-59 after a 6-0 run with 3:20 left, but the Warriors closed the game on a 6-0 run of their own to punch their ticket back to Macon.
