RABBITTOWN — The East Hall girls softball team won for the fith time in six games and its third consecutive Region 7-AAA gameb Tuesday in a 4-0 win over Greater Atlanta Christian.

Carley Cox had two hits to help spark the East Hall (10-6, 7-2 Region 7-AAA) offense, which scored all four runs in the fifth inning to break a scoreless tie.

In the decisive fourth, Banks had a RBI fielder's choice and Abigail Brown, Makayla Wilson, and Peyton Turner each had RBI singles.
