After long hours of practice and hard work, the Lady Grizzlies softball team made it to state. The Grizzlies battled through the first round of state playoffs winning the first game against Pope High School 6-4. After losing the second game, the girls were not about to give up on their goal to reach state. The next day they came out ready to beat Pope and send them home with a 5-3 win.
The second round of state playoffs was a two game sweep for the ladies, winning both games against Habersham (the first 10-1 and the second 2-1). The Grizzlies then continued onto States in Columbus.
The ladies played their first game Thursday afternoon against Jones County in the Olympic Stadium, the nicest field at the park. They battled through the game, but sadly this was not enough for the ladies, leaving them with their first loss 8-0.
The next day they played Northgate, beating them 6-0, and continuing to the next game. As the Grizzlies moved on, their next game was against Union Grove and the ladies were once again to play in the Olympic Stadium. The girls were in it to win it, but that was not enough in the end. With a 7-2 loss, the girls finished sixth in state.
The Lady Grizzlies finished the 201 0 season with 30 wins and 10 losses. They had an eventful season winning region and going to state. Another thing was the 100th game win for seniors, Haley B, Haley H, Martha Z, Paige S, LeeAnn G, Lyndsey L, and Emerie G.
