Lady Bears head to state playoffs
By David Stembridge
Stembridge@gmail.com
Burke County High School’s
softball team travels to Macon
today (Wednesday) for its first
game in the AAAA state play
offs.
The Burke County Lady Bears
had a rough time on the diamond
last week, losing in the second
and third rounds of the region
playoffs to Wayne County 12-0
and Cross Creek 12-0.
Head Coach Lee Smoak knew
those games would be challeng
ing.
“After winning our first-round
series of the region playoffs and
qualifying for state, we had to
be realistic with ourselves know
ing that the remainder of the re
gion playoffs were going to be
an uphill struggle for us,” he
said. “The other three teams
from our region going to state
have much more experienced
and established programs.”
But the Lady Bears had al
ready secured their spot in the
state tournament and will enter
the playoffs as the No. 4 seed
from Region 3-AAAA.
A best of three series against
Rutland High School in Macon
will determine the Lady Bears’
fate in the state tournament.
Rutland is the No. 1 seed from
Region 2.
Coach Smoak looks forward
to playing in the state playoffs
but realizes the challenges. They
are not only playing on the road
but are also playing a region
champion.
“We are expecting to play a
clean series and do the little
things it takes just to compete at
this level and against a team of
Rutland’s caliber,” Coach Smoak
said.

Softball season ends for Lady Spartans
EBA’s softball team narrowly missed advancing to the state playoffs during its first
year of competing in GISA’s highest classification, Class-AAA. Emilie Harvey, Kasie
Hargrove and Gray Lewis all played their last softball games as Lady Spartans.
And, according to head coach Randy Broxton, they all will be missed on next
year’s team. “Our seniors did a good job showing leadership and working with our
younger girls this season,” Broxton said of the trio. “Moving up to a higher classi
fication was initially a shock to our team because of the bigger schools we had to
play. The seniors helped the rest of the team adjust to the stiffer competition, and I
think the confidence we gained will carry into next year. All three of them will be
missed,” Broxton added. Broxton believes his team will have a good shot at mak
ing the playoffs next year. “Our younger girls have the experience they need for
next season. Our disappointment of not making the playoffs this season will give
us the fuel we need to make sure we advance next year,” Broxton said. “We have a
full year to get stronger in the weight room and to work on our weaknesses.” EBA
will return seven starters next season and will welcome several freshmen to the
team who are expected to fill in the gaps of the graduating seniors. Pictured above
are Harvey, Hargrove and Lewis along with their parents.
