To State Tournament
Last weekend, in the
Region 4-A play-offs at West
Georgia College in Carroll
ton, the Jackson Devilettes
defeated Darlington with a
score of 73-51 and advanced
to the finals. The devastating
Devilettes, led by the record
holding Janis Ward, played a
great defensive game with 32
rebounds and 12 steals. In the
game, Janis Ward led in
scoring with 28 points; Sylvia
Sims scored 15 points. Danita
Crowder added 12; Charlotte
White bagged 10 and Shriley
Patterson trailed with eight.
Playing far below their

score of 45-33.

28-18. But at the opening of
the third quarter, the
pounding Haralson County
offensive game faced a
weakened Devilette defense
which netted only 16 re
bounds and six steals, and
the Rebels outscored the
Devilettes in the third
