The Bears weathered another threegame series in the quarterfinals and after losing to Blessed Trinity 5-3 in the first game, Houston County won 4-2, 6-1 to advance. In the semifinals, the Bears beat Etowah 6-5, 4-1 to earn the championship berth.

THE CHIEFS JUST WANT ONE In Class 5A McIntosh is trying for the team’s first title, and six-time title winner and the defending champions Loganville stand in the Chiefs’ way. The teams will begin

A LONG PATH TO THE TITLE In Class 6A, Pope and Houston County will play the opening double-header beginning at 5 p.m. Thursday after a tumultuous run through the bracket.

The Greyhounds lost 6-4 in the first game then won 18-2 and 12-2 to advance. Against Woodstock in the second round, Pope again lost the opening game 3-1 and then won 3-2, 5-2 to earn a quarterfinals berth.

Houston County – which won championships in 2014, 2016 and 2021 and entered the bracket as the No. 1 seed from Region 1 – carved a path to the finals through

the double-header series at 5 p.m. Saturday. Loganville – which won titles in 2008, 2012, 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2022 – entered the tournament as the No. 1 seed from Region 8 and beat Dalton 11-1, 11-4 and Chapel Hill 5-1, 12-0 to advance to the quarterfinals.

In the first four rounds, the higher seeded team will host. In any round where both teams are the same seed, a "universal" GHSA coin flip will determine the host school (or the designated home team for Game One in a neutral-site final). Exceptions to the scheduled dates may be made with the approval of the Executive Director.
