GA State B-ball AAAA post-second round/pre-third round thoughts

As for the women, No. 1 Southwest DeKalb is looking stronger by the game. The record now stands at 28-2 after taking down Northwest Whitfield 68-53 behind once again Charenee Stephens’s 17 points and Eboni Mitchell’s 16. Kayla Lewis will also look to pitch in when the team next faces Region 8 Champion Clarke Central in the quarters. Meanwhile, in the top of the bracket, No. 3 Westlake moved past Americus-Sumter behind the efforts of Sharnae Boykin’s 33 points and Tamika Willis’s 22. Dalia Robinson will be an excellent third spoke of Westlake’s triumvirate when the Lions take on Baldwin. Tessah Holt is one Fayette County player that Northside-Warner Robins will want to try and contain. Holt scored 21 in the Bainbridge blowout and she gets help from Anma Onyeuku. But The Eagles can counter with Tai Brown, who can score in bunches. Finally, Mays senior Sade Means hit for 24 points in the second round and is looking to take down No. 7 Courtney Freeman and Madison County in the quarters.

PS, this blog will also appear on gpb.org/basketball a little later on today.
