Seven turnovers and 2-for-23 shooting in one quarter typically spells disaster for any basketball team. That is, unless you are East Hall these days.

Despite the rankings, Saturday

West Hall outscored Habersham 41-23 in the second half en route to a 69-41 win on the road Friday night.

Dawson County used a huge second quarter to pull away from Gilmer in a 53-41 win Friday night.

Lakeview Academy fell to 1-2 on the season after losing 76-55 to Providence Christian Friday night.

Peyton Robertson poured in 17 points to lead Class AAA No. 7 Chestatee to a 52-17 win over Flowery Branch Friday night.

Flowery Branch held Chestatee to just one point in the first quarter and then cruised to a 57-45 win Friday night in boys basketball action.

Habersham Central held West Hall to just five points in the first half en route to a 59-19 win Friday night in girls basketball action.

After watching his team fall behind by seven points to Flowery Branch in the third quarter, East Hall coach Joe Dix decided it was time to get back to basics.

East Hall never trailed but had to hold off a furious second half rally to beat Flowery Branch 50-45 Tuesday night in girls basketball action.
