(Columbus, GA) — The Heard County Lady Braves basketball team bounced back from a semifinal loss with a solid 46-17 win over rival Callaway Saturday afternoon to clinch the Region 5-AA No. 3 seed in the upcoming state playoffs.
The Lady Braves jumped out to a 26-8 lead at the half and never looked back in route to the win that gives the squad a third place finish in the region. Defensively, the squad held the Lady Cavs to just 10 points though the first three quarters of play.
Offensively, Sophia Long and Zekylah Boyd led the way with 14 and 10 points respectively. Seniors Morgan Kay and Tori Caldwell also had nice efforts with Kay scoring seven and Caldwell scoring five.
