The Lady Panthers of Jackson County had to fight opponents and the weather last week, but came away making the Gold Medal Round of the North Fall Classic, which will be played this coming Saturday.
The next region pairing for the Lady Panthers, who are 6-0 in region play and 13-7-1 overall, will come Thursday, as Stephens County will travel to JCCHS for a 5:55 p.m. match up.
The Lady Panthers’ week started out with pool games last Monday night for the North Fall Classic at North Hall High School. The Lady Panthers tied with North Hall 2-2 in the early game, and then went on to defeat Hebron 8-4 in the evening game, putting Jackson County in the Gold Medal Round to be played over the weekend at North Georgia College and State University.
Unfortunately, the same wet weather that plagued most teams in the area also affected the Lady Panthers, as the game was postponed until this coming Saturday. Jackson County will face Union County at 9 a.m.
