Several teams swept to advance to the championship bracket in their respective classes in the second-round of the GHSA softball playoffs on Wednesday. Other teams will meet again tomorrow for a decisive Game 3.
In Class AAAAA, Villa Rica advanced with a sweep of the higher-seeded Chamblee. Villa Rica, the No. 3 seed from Region 7, defeated Chamblee, the No. 1 seed from Region 5, 9-0 in Game 1 and 13-0 in Game 2.
Hampton, the No. 1 seed from Region 4, survived a scare to advance to the Class AAAA championship bracket after losing Game 1 against Howard, the Region 2 No. 3 seed, 1-0. A mere error in Game 1 allowed the go-ahead run as neither team could find a rhythm at the plate. Hampton’s 6-4 victory in the second game on Tuesday forced a Game 3 on Wednesday which it won, 8-0. In another AAAA series, Eastside relied on a three-run seventh inning to take a 5-2 victory in Game 2 after losing 2-1 in the first game. Heritage defeated Central-Carroll in a closely-contested Game 1, 2-1, before outclassing Central 12-0 in a 4-inning Game 2.
In the Class AA bracket, Heard County advanced on Tuesday evening with a sweep of Dade County. Heard won the first game 14-5 and took the second game 8-0. Monticello also swept the competition to advance to the championship bracket. Monticello moved passed Pepperell 8-4 in Game 1 and 3-0 in Game 2.
In the Class A-Public bracket, Mount Zion won the first game in the best-of-three series over Telfair County, 2-1. Telfair did not wither away under the pressure of a do-or-die game and forced a Game 3 by winning Game 2, 4-1. Game 3 will be played Thursday.
