GHSA Playoffs

A/II-Glascock County 1, GMC 0
          The Bulldogs got the pitching, an 11-strikeout performance from Hannah Garner, but not the offense, with 11 GMC batters being sat down. Both teams had three hits, Glascock County turning a leadoff single two outs later into the lone run in the third after a double. GMC stranded runners in the first and fourth, a runner caught trying to steal home, and sixth.
