The East Coweta Lady Indians are ranked ninth in AAAA

basketball, at least until early next week. On Tuesday night they let one

slip away to the 14th ranked McIntosh Lady Chiefs, 55-50. The

East Coweta boys fell to the Chiefs as well on Tuesday, 67-57.

East Coweta faces Carver on Friday night before traveling to their

rivals, Newnan, on Tuesday.

As for McIntosh, they will meet their rivals, Fayette County,

on Tuesday as well. The girls should move up in the rankings after

handing East Coweta a loss on Tuesday and Griffin a loss last

Saturday.The boys are not ranked currently but their 16-2 record is quite

impressive. The Chiefs will host Lovejoy on Friday night and then

Starr's Mill on Saturday night.

Fayette County hosts Stockbridge and Sandy Creek

on Friday and Saturday respectively. Both the boys and the girls

teams have played very well of late but the boys have been handed two

one point losses to tough regional opponents.The boys should

not overlook Sandy Creek. The Patriots lost a one point heartbreaker

to 11th ranked Woodward Academy last weekend and looked

explosive against Starr's Mill on Tuesday night.

Starr's Mill hosts Forest Park on Friday night before traveling up

the street to McIntosh. If the girls shooting is on and the boys

can control the pace of the game, Starr's Mill could surprise

anybody. Games begin at 7 p.m. on Friday and at 6p.m. on Saturday.
