Baseball: Cancellations pouring in for Wednesday action

By Jeff Hart Sports Reporter

Mother Nature knocked out several key region games for northeast Georgia baseball teams in the AccessWDUN coverage area on Wednesday.

As of 1:30 p.m., every game on the schedule had been postponed and moved to other days.

The games were washed out due to the rains that have moved through the area.

(Check below for the schedule for the updates on the Wednesday and Thursday action for northeast Georgia area teams.)

The schedule already was lighter than normal but has some monster matchups that will now be pushed back.

Buford and Habersham Central managed to get in their opening game in Region 8-6A but their Wednesday game has been moved to Thursday as part of a doubleheader in Buford.

In Region 8-5A, Jackson County and Apalachee also got their opening game in with the Panthers rallying for a win. Jackson County has won 10 straight as the series moves to Bethlehem.

Region 7-3A is where most of the action was centered as No. 2 North Hall, West Hall, and White County were looking to go for series wins. The entire slate of games was postponed for Wednesday and moved to Thursday.

The only Region 8-4A series will have East Hall playing host to Madison County. The Vikings are still looking for their first win of the season.

Lakeview Academy in Region 6-A Private will have to wait until Thursday to try and even up its series with The Weber School at home.
