Outside of the top two in Class AAAAAA, everybody in the Top Ten suffered a loss. Milton lost thrice and is now out of the polls at 11-7. Replacing them is former national power No. 8 Lambert, who is looking to recapture the magic from two years ago. No. 6 Parkview is still struggling to find its footing and will need to string together some wins to remain in the top ten. Grayson was the latest team to edge the Panthers, 7-6 in nine innings. Region 8 is turning into a log jam with the top three as Parkview holds onto first at 7-1 while Grayson (13-4, 6-1) and Brookwood (10-8, 6-2) are close behind.
Mountain View remains No. 3 in the state. The Bears dropped to No. 5 Norcross 4-3, but rebounded with a 6-3 win over No. 4 Collins Hill. North Cobb falls to No. 10 after a 2-1 loss to Kennesaw Mountain and an 11-1 defeat against Harrison.
Class AAAAA’s No. 4 Greenbrier was tripped up by AAA No. 10 Westside-Augusta 5-0. The Patriots are new to the Top Ten in Class AAA. No. 8 Jones County losing ground, falling two spots after a loss to Houston County 4-1. The Bears are starting to make some noise as they lead the region. No. 10 Hardaway holds onto its spot after a 6-0 loss to No. 6 Columbus.
No. 9 Thomson and No. 10 Spalding debut in the AAAA rankings after Whitewater and Troup exit.
The most dominant team in the state right now is AAA No. 1 Blessed Trinity. The Titans are a perfect 16-0 and have allowed only eight runs all year. No. 2 Franklin County is 19-0, but it doesn’t look like Blessed Trinity will be challenged for their top spot any time soon.
Region 6-AA is the epicenter of good athletics. This time, its baseball on display. No. 1 Wesleyan can thank No. 2 GAC for regaining the top spot after the Spartans took two of three from No. 3 Holy Innocents’. GAC handled the Golden Bears 2-1 and 6-2 with an 8-4 loss sandwiched in between. Bryan County and Fitzgerald both lose their place in the rankings while No. 9 Union County and No. 10 Bleckley County look to see how long they can stay on the bull.
Class A saw No. 4 Tattnall Square Academy drop a spot after two losses to Florida programs Mosley High School and Bay High School. Baconton Charter didn’t last long in the spotlight. They lost 12-1 to No. 3 Schley and were shutout at Irwin County 11-0. No. 10 George Walton Academy makes its debut.
