Local high

school baseball teams played during spring break last week. Some winning

streaks began, while others came to an end.

The Starr's

Mill Panthers ended the East Coweta Indians' seven game winning streak

Friday with a 10-0 win. The Panthers got one run in the first inning,

one in the second, two in the third and four more in the fourth. Alan

Beall drove in four runs in Starr's Mill's win.

Earlier in

the week, Starr's Mill defeated Forest Park 9-1. The Panthers, when all

cylinders are clicking, are tough to beat. The team did lose to Newnan

Monday, 10-1. Their current record is 3-7.

Starr's Mill

will host McIntosh today at 4:30 p.m. The Panthers will play Friday at

Mt. Zion, Jonesboro (3-11) at 5 p.m. and will host Rockdale County Saturday
