Buford, Jackson County, and Habersham Central highlight a limited schedule on Monday but all three face huge games with playoff implications.
Buford (21-6, 13-2 Region 8-6A) opens a huge three-game series with Dacula needing two wins to clinch the Region 8-6A title. But the Falcons (15-10, 10-5 Region 8-6A) also are still alive for a region title if they can sweep Buford and have Collins Hill sweep Mill Creek in their series.
Jackson County and Habersham are part of a four-way battle for the final two playoff spots in Region 8-5A. Both teams will be on the road on Monday.
