Basketball: Balanced 7-3A, 8-4A regions highlight Tuesday action

By AccessWDUN Staff

Most region schedules around the Northeast Georgia area are already under way as we head toward the Christmas break.

Some early surprises are the West Hall boys sitting atop Region 7-3A while defending Class 3A girls state champion Lumpkin County does not. The 7-3A girls is already showing it will be a dogfight as Wesleyan knocked off the Lady Indians last week. But White County then beat Wesleyan. However, Dawson County is in first place in the early going.

In Region 8-4A, the Cherokee Buff girls and Chestatee boys are atop the standings after the first week and a half.

In Region 8-5A, the Flowery Branch boys are still undefeated overall while the Lady Falcons have won six straight and both opened region play with a win last week.

(Check the schedule below for the schedule of games involving Northeast Georgia-area teams.)
