The Banks County varsity Lady Leopards have competed and won against three tough opponents this week, Oglethorpe 74-25, Fannin 42-38 and Jackson 58-45.

The varsity Lady Leopards have won the last five games and are 7-1 on the season with the only loss coming from the Habersham Central Raiders on the road. The Lady Leopards beat Fannin County for their first regional contest on the road.

"It's the first time we have beaten Fannin and we did it at Fannin,” said head coach Jerry King. “Not only a historical night for us but we did it the hard way, riding over the mountain and in their gym. They are a scrappy bunch and got in our heads late but we were able to hold on for the win. It's great to start the sub region with a win!" [Full Story »]
