The high school basketball is about to kick up a notch as several Northeast Georgia area schools begin region play this week.
Regions 8-6A, 6-6A, 7-5A and 8-4A will tip off on Tuesday night.
Some interesting non-region games are on the slate, including Cherokee Bluff girls traveling to White County. The Lady Bears and Lady Warriors are both 4-2 and expected to be contenders in their respective regions.
The Gainesville boys have a tough Region 7-5A opener at Johns Creek, and the Habersham Central boys will be tested at home against Rabun Gap.
