2028 @Garrett_Ward1 of @MorganCountyMBB was really impressive in the win over Rabun County in the battle of defending state champs. A solid shooter with a long frame for a perimeter guy who really defended at a high level

Final :
Starrβs Mill - 44
@MorganCountyMBB - 62
Morgan County cruised to a win over Starrβs Mill at The Hoop Atlanta Holiday Classic. They played fast on the offensive end, flew around on the defensive end and had a balanced scoring attack.
Garrett Ward was solid with 15 he win, he rebounded well from the guard spot as well.
Zeki Locus was solid at the lead guard spot, getting downhill, getting teammates quality shots, and he got to the line.
Kobi Jefferies energy was contagious as he was active all over the floor and he was active on the glass.
