The top teams in the latest softball rankings all looked impressive in the first round of the state playoffs. Class AAAAAA No. 1 Kennesaw Mountain cruised to a 2-0 win over Coffee in the first round while No. 2 East Coweta swept Newton. Alcovy, North Gwinnett and Lassiter round out the top five. The Trojans defeated former No. 3 Brookwood in three games by taking the last two of the series. No. 7 Peachtree Ridge and No. 8 Collins Hill looked impressed in the first round.
In Class AAAAA, No. 3 Greenbrier was impressive in a win over Richmond Hill while No. 5 Heritage-Conyers swept North Paulding with a combined 21-0 score. No. 6 Whitewater “upset” Thomas County Crentral while No. 7 Pope pounded Arabia Mountain in two games 31-0.
Class AAAA No. 1 Northwest Whitfield swept South Atlanta out of the playoffs with a combined 35-0 score. The top five remained unchanged while No. 6 Carrollton “upset” No. 7 Walnut Grove on the road. Marist enters the fold at No. 10.
Ringgold needed three games to move past North Oconee in the Class AAA playoffs. No. 2 Ringgold dropped Game 1 before winning 5-0, 5-0 in Game 2 and Game 3. The rest of the top 10 remained the same.
