The GHSA says it will announce the final power ratings on Monday, but the Central Georgia field of Class A state tournament teams is unlikely to change, although one or two may move a spot.
FPD is on the boys bubble, ranked 25th through Friday, one spot out of the 24-team field. Mount de Sales’ girls are 21st and appear to be in.
Hancock Central’s girls and Hawkinsville’s boys are each 28th, and will doubtfully move up enough to get in.
The top 8 teams get a first-round bye, and Stratford’s girls remain a lock for a day off, as do Macon County’s boys at No. 4 and Wilkinson County at No. 5.
Stratford, GMC, and Macon County have the highest-ranked programs in Central Georgia on their respective sides. Stratford’s girls were 6th and boys 8th, and Macon County’s boys were 4th and girls 9th. GMC’s girls were No. 8 and boys No. 9.
