Josey visits arch rival Laney Saturday in a rematch of last season's state championship game. |
The ladies will be shown first this weekend at AugBball when six of the area's best girls teams play in compelling matchups, some of them region matchups and others interstate duels. In action will be fellow back-to-back state champions North Augusta and Laney, as will be Josey, a state playoff runner up from a season ago, as well as defending region champion Burke County, and Cross Creek, Grovetown and Butler, which all played in last season's state playoffs.

North Augusta at Cross Creek
Laney at Butler
When these two dynasties met each other last week at Glenn Hills, the Lady Yellow Jackets proved they are the team best positioned for a three-peat:
But Laney played with fire against North Augusta. And I expect them to prove this weekend that the road to Georgia's class 3A state championship will still go through their neighborhood in 2019.

Josey at Laney
All 5 of Josey's losses last season came at Laney's hands, including two region games, a holiday tournament championship game, a region championship game, and eventually a state playoff championship game. The Lady Eagles will be determined to stop that pattern from continuing.
The area's best rivalry takes place this Saturday. |
Butler at Grovetown
A matchup between a couple teams aiming to show they belong on the big stage will wrap up the "Ladies first" AugBball presentation this weekend.
