Macy Passmore and Anna McKendree started the comeback and had the Spartans down 45-41 heading into the fourth. Jackson-Atlanta used a 7-0 run to put the game away after a valiant West Hall effort paced by McKendree’s 32 points and Passmore’s 13 points and 11 rebounds. Walker was too much to handle, scoring 25 points. Erica Gibbons scored 17 and Kayla Mayfield 10 in the win. The Jaguars now play Beach in the Final Four.
