Due mainly

to the dates of the games, the Starr's Mill Panthers boys soccer team

was the first local squad to reach the state quarterfinals after Monday's

3-2 win over Windsor Forest.

you read this, however, there will likely be several other Fayette teams

in the mix, as both McIntosh teams and the Starr's Mill girls were scheduled

to take the field last night after this paper's deadline.

The Panthers

will host Kennesaw Mountain next Tuesday in the quarterfinals. Kennesaw

Mountain defeated Centennial 2-1 to advance.

The Fayette

County Tigers saw their season come to an end Monday with a 4-0 loss to

Glynn Academy. The Newnan Cougars also lost Monday, 1-0 to Benedictine,

to end their season.

The McIntosh

Chiefs were scheduled to face Camden County yesterday.

In A/AA tournament

play, Landmark Christian lost 1-0 to Padelli last Thursday.

On the girls'

side, four games of local interest were on yesterday's schedule: Starr's

Mill at Eagle's Landing, East Coweta at Glynn Academy, Newnan at St. Vincent's,

and Warner Robins at McIntosh.

All quarterfinal

games are set to take place early next week, with semifinals and finals

over Memorial Day weekend.
