FIRST DAY, KEEP TRACK OF THAT I GHSA CHAMPIONSHIP HERE ON GPB.

IT'S A CLASS FOR EIGHT GIRLS TILT, AND WE'RE EXCITED HERE TO WELCOME YOU IN.

DID THIS GHA BASKETBALL CHAMPIONSHIP GAME, PRESENTED BY BRAIDED PEST MANAGEMENT?

THE OFFICIAL SPONSOR OF HIGH SCHOOL BASKETBALL.

THIS IS A GOOD ONE.

BALDWIN THE BRAVES COMING IN, TWENTY FOUR AND EIGHT.

BOTH TEAMS OUT OF REGION TWO, THEY FACE A TEAM THEY KNOW VERY WELL THE GRIFFIN BEARS 26 AND FOUR ON THE SEASON.

AGAIN HERE IS WE MOVE TO CLASS 4A.

WE HAVE TWO WINNERS ALREADY IN ONE A DIVISION TO THOSE ARE ALREADY IN THE BOOKS.

AND HERE WE GO.

LARRY SMITH HERE WITH TABITHA TURNER, ANOTHER GREAT MATCHUP GREAT TALKING TO THE COACHES THIS WEEK.

WE CAN'T WAIT FOR THIS ONE.

IT'S GONNA BE A GOOD ONE.

THIS IS THE FOURTH TIME, THESE TWO TEAMS ARE MATCHING UP THIS SEASON AND IT'S BEEN BACK AND FORTH.

THE ENTIRE SEASON GRIFFIN TOOK THE FIRST MATCHUP AT THEIR PLACE.

THEN PAUL, WENT TOOK THE SECOND MATCHUP AND THEN GRIFFEY WON THE REGIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP.

SO HEAD COACH FOR BALDWIN TELLING US EARLIER THIS WEEK IN OUR CONFERENCE CALL IT'S THEIR TURN NOW SO I'M EXCITED TO SEE WHAT THEY BRING TONIGHT.

BALDWIN HAVE THE SLOW.

START ON FOR TO START, BUT THEY'VE REALLY PICKED THINGS UP HERE AND FIND THEMSELVES IN THE FINAL GAME OF THE SEASON.

LET'S TAKE A LOOK AT SOME OF THE PLAYERS THAT WE SHOULD BE WATCHING.

AND LET'S START FIRST WITH BALDWIN, WHO SERVES THEIR DRINK MADISON.

ROUGH IS GOING TO BE THE PLAYER TO WATCH FOR THEM, AND SHE IS THE LEADER.

SHE'S THE POINT GUARD OF THIS TEAM, AVERAGING 13 AND A HALF POINTS.

A GAME, JUST OVER FIVE REBOUNDS 2.8, AXES AND ALMOST FOUR STEALS PER GAME.

SO SHE IS SAD STUFF AND DOWN THERE.

SHE WAS THE REGION TO PLAYER OF THE YEAR AND SHE'S THE LEADER IN CHARGE.

SHE GETS 100% AT BOTH.

ENDS OF THE FLOOR DROPPED 15 POINTS OF THE SEMI FINAL WIN OVER, HOLY INNOCENTS.

SO EXCITED TO SEE WHAT SHE DOES TODAY.

AND THEN, MEANWHILE, HOW ABOUT FOR GRIFFIN.

AND LET'S TAKE A LOOK AT GRIFFIN LEAH.

TURNER, 12 AND A HALF POINTS IN GAME.

FIVE AND A HALF, REBOUNDS, SHE IS QUICK.

SHE'S A PENETRATOR, THE LEADER OF THE TEAM.

NOT ALWAYS LEAD SCORE, BUT SHE IMPACTS THE GAME IN DIFFERENT WAYS.

SHE'S AN EXCELLENT FACILITATOR, AND REBOUNDER POINT GUARD IN THE BEST, OVERALL SHOOTER.

LET'S SEE WHAT SHE GOT TODAY IN THIS MATCHUP.

CAN'T WAIT FOR THAT.

NOW ARE STARTING LINEUPS.

POWERED BY THE DAIRY ALLIANCE GLOBAL ADVOCATES FOR DAIRY IS AN ESSENTIAL INGREDIENT TO LIFE AND HERE WE GO.

WE GOT THE TWO ROUGH, SISTERS, BOLTER, JUNIORS, MADISON, AND MORGAN, JAZZ AND WILLIAMS, CASSIDY NEIL, AND JOHNNY WALKER.

JUST A SOPHOMORE.

MEANWHILE, FOR GRIFFIN, IT'S SAMAYA HOESLEY LEAH.

TURNER IS ONE OF THREE SENIORS IN THE STARTING LINEUP ALONG WITH ZAI, THOMPSON AND ALIA DURHAM.

AS YOU CAN SEE, AND THEN CASEY SPIKES.

ALSO, THERE ARE FIVE TEN TO FORWARD.

SHE IS A JUNIOR FOR THESE GRIFFIN.

AIRS COMING IN OUT OF SPALDING COUNTY DOWN THERE IN THE COURSE.

BALL WOULDN'T BRAINS THIS AGAIN, BE CLASS, 48-GAME IN THE STARTING LINEUPS ARE POWERED BY THE DAIRY ALLIANCE.

SO AGAIN, WE ARE BACK HERE ON GPB BACK AT THE MACON COLISEUM, AND ONCE AGAIN, WE HAVE ANOTHER GAME COMING UP LATER ON TONIGHT.

THE CLASS FOR A BOY'S GAME.

THAT WAS ON THE WAY.

PACE ACADEMY AGAINST FAYETTE COUNTY, THE TIGERS DOWN THERE, GOOD CROWD SO FAR.

AS YOU CAN SEE, WE'VE HAD A COUPLE OF GREAT MATCHUPS EARLY ON IN THIS ONE, WE JUST SAW WILKINSON COUNTY WHEN THE BOYS MATCHUP EARLIER.

IT WAS CLINCH COUNTY GETTING THE WIN FOR THE GIRLS AGAIN, AS WE ARE NOW FINISHED WITH CLASS 1A DIVISION 2, THAT IS IN THE BOOKS.

GOOD.

LOOK HERE.

AT THE GRIFFIN HUDDLE.

AS WE BEGIN THIS GAME, YOUR REFEREES BY THE WAY.

DAVID JENKINS AMANDA ANDERSON AND CALVIN GARTH IN THIS ONE COACH ROY, JOHNSON GRIFFIN, HEAD COACH, RIGHT?

TALKING WITH HIM THIS WEEK AND THE CHALLENGES OF THESE TEAMS.

YOU KNOW.

YOU GET TO THIS LEVEL TABITHA AND IT IS JUST YOU ARE A BIG MAN OR A BIG WOMAN IN TOWN, RIGHT?

EVERYONE IS TRYING TO GET YOUR ATTENTION.

YOU'RE TRYING TO FOCUS IN ON THE GAME.

ABSOLUTELY.

AND WE HAD A GREAT CALL WITH HIM AND I'M EXCITED TO SEE HOW THIS TEAM RUNS AFTER THE BALL.

IS IT GET THE JUMP BALL?

YEAH, I'VE HEARD OVER THREE SECONDS IN AS THEY GOT A LITTLE EXCITED AND TRY TO SET OFF THE JUMP BALL, TRY TO SET THEIR OFFENSE GRIFFIN CALL FOR THE OVER AND BACK GRIFFIN, THE LADY BEARS IN THE WHITE WITH GREEN TRIM AS YOU CAN SEE.

AND FOR BALDWIN, THEY ARE IN THE BLACK WITH RED LETTERS.

SO WE GET THINGS STARTED GOOD DEFENSE HERE, STEEL ON THE OUTLET.

THAT'S LEA TURNER WITH THE BUCKET UP AND NO WENT DOWN, AND RIGHT BACK OUT AGAIN.

THAT WAS ALIA DURHAM THE 59 SENIOR, AND THAT'S GOT TO BE FRUSTRATING.

A GOOD LOOK FOR DURING A HAM, PENETRATING EARLY IN THIS GAME ROLLED IN AND NOW I'M SURE SHE'LL SEE A FEW OF THOSE DROPPING THIS ONE GOOD LOOK THERE AT LEA TURNER CALLED FOR THE FOUL.

THAT'S HER FIRST, JUST UNDERWAY, CLASS 4A CHAMPIONSHIP GAME HERE ON GPB.

MORGAN ROUGH TRYING TO GET IT INSIDE BALL, SAY BACKGAMMON IN THE HANDS.

OF BALDWIN NOTHING DOING THERE.

IT'S MIKE'S CASE MIKE'S WITH THE REBOUND AND WE GO THE OTHER WAY FOR THE BEARS.

YEAH, ALMOST A TURNOVER THAT PASS WAS OVER THE POST HEAD AND IF THE WING ALSO NOTICED IT WAS A DOUBLE TEAM WAITING TO HAPPEN.

SO THAT PASSES GOT TO BE SMARTER INTO THE POST FOOTBALL WHEN DOUBLE TEAM THERE IN THE POST TO GET IT BACK OUT TO DURING HIM.

LOB PASS INSIDE UP AND CAN'T GET THAT TO GO.

GOOD.

LOOK AT IT, BUYS I THOMPSON THE 5-11 SENIOR QUICKLY THE OTHER WAY WE GO.

BALDWIN THREE-POINTER THAT'S NO GOOD REBOUND JAMIYAH HOESLEY.

FACTS ACT FAST ACTION HERE IN THE FIRST.

90 SECONDS OF THIS ONE.

TURNER 43 BACK IRON.

REBOUND OFF THE FOOT OF MORGAN ROUGH, BUT SAVED VERY QUICKLY IN JULY WALKER.

COMES THE OTHER WAY.

BOTH THESE TEAMS NEED TO KIND OF SLOW DOWN AND SET UP THEIR OFFENSE, GET INTO YOUR SETS.

EVERY SHOT IS ONE AND DONE.

THERE'S NO BREAKING DOWN, THE DEFENSE FAST-BREAK BUCKET AND THAT WON'T GO AGAIN.

THERE'S NO HELP SIDE COMING.

EVERY SHOT IS QUICK AND EVEN THOUGH IT'S A NICE TRANSITION BUCKET FOR GRIFFIN, HIGH SCHOOL, THEY'VE MISSED THREE LAYUPS AT THE RIM SO FAR.

THIS GAME DRAMA COMING UP SHORT.

AGAIN, THAT'S CASSIDY.

NEAL HAS IT TAKEN AWAY?

SHE TRAVELS AS HOLY WITH THE TAKEAWAY, BUT GIVES IT RIGHT BACK AND SHE TRAVELED THERE.

TRYING TO GET OFF HER HER BACK.

GOOD LOOK HERE AT KIZZY WALKER THE BALDWIN HEAD COACH, GREAT TO TALK WITH HER ABOUT THIS TEAM AND ALL THEY'VE GONE THROUGH THIS SEASON TO GET HERE.

AGAIN, FOURTH MATCHUP IS TABITHA MENTIONED EARLIER AND FINALLY, THE BUCKET IS UP AND IN WALKER WITH THE BASKET JANAI WALKER.

AND RIGHT ON TIME, COACH'S DAUGHTER GOES AND SCORES THE BASKET.

THAT WAS AN INTERESTING CONVERSATION.

WE HAD WITH COACH WALKER ABOUT COACHING HER DAUGHTER ON THE TEAM.

WHO'S A DOUBLE-DOUBLE QUEEN ALMOST TO TRAVEL THERE.

BY WILLIAMS, NICE REBOUND AND PUTBACK.

MY DURHAM.

FULL COURT PRESS.

NOW THEY BREAK THAT NOW A TWO-ON-ONE BALL UNDERNEATH THIS IT UP AND GO KNOCKED AWAY.

GREAT PLAY THERE, DEFENSIVELY BY WILLIAMS.

MAKE THAT ZAI THOMPSON.

AND HERE'S A STEAL.

OH MAN CONTACT UNDERNEATH.

NO FOUL CALLED THAT BACK.

THE OTHER WAY DID PACE OF THIS GAME IS JUST SO BACK AND FORTH.

I DON'T THINK YOU STOP TALKING LARRY AND THAT'S KNOWN.

EXACTLY, THAT'S THE PACE OF THIS GAME.

IT'S JUST, IT'S GOING, IT'S QUICK AND I'M GOING TO TALK ON AND ON, THAT'S RIGHT.

BUT JUST LIKE THAT, WE'VE GOT A STOPPAGE OF PLAY AND WE WILL TAKE A BREAK RIGHT HERE FOR 58 IN HIS PAST AND FURIOUS NOT MUCH OFFENSE, MAYBE THIS BREAK WILL HELP YOU SETTLE DOWN CLASS 4A CHAMPIONSHIP MORE AFTER THIS, SWEETHEART.

PLEASE DON'T FORGET TO WEAR YOUR SEATBELT.

I GOT IT MOM.

IN THE BLINK OF AN EYE.

SO MANY TOMORROW'S CAN DISAPPEAR BUCKLE UP FOR YOUR FUTURE EVERY TRIP.

EVERY TIME A MESSAGE FROM THE GOVERNOR'S OFFICE OF HIGHWAY SAFETY IN LIVELY TOWNS.

IN PEACEFUL, RURAL AREAS, GEORGE'S, ELECTRIC MEMBERSHIP, COOPERATIVES ARE ON A MISSION TO PROVIDE A DIFFERENT KIND OF ELECTRICITY ARE.

WE'RE WORKING TO LEVEL THE PLAYING FIELD.

SO MORE PEOPLE CAN SUCCEED IN OUR COMMUNITIES CAN THRIVE ALL RIGHT, BACK HERE AT, GET READY FOR LIVE ACTION AND THE CLASS 4A GAME.

WE WERE TALKING BEFORE ABOUT THOSE PLAYERS TO WATCH.

LET'S TAKE ONE MORE.

LOOK AT THAT SINCE THIS HAS BEEN SO FAST AND FURIOUS HERE AT THE START.

I'VE BEEN A TRACK MEET OUT HERE, BUT LEAH.

TURNER ON THE SCREEN, WE TOLD YOU, SHE'S AVERAGING 12 AND A HALF POINTS.

GAVE FIVE AND HAVE REBOUND.

SHE'S JUST QUICK, SHE'S A PENETRATOR AND SHE'S THE LEADER OF THIS TEAM AND SHE IMPACTS THE GAME IN SO MANY WAYS, NOT ALWAYS THE LEADING SCORER, BUT SHE'S A GREAT, FACILITATOR AND REBOUNDER.

AND ON THE OTHER SIDE, MADISON ROUGH 13 FIVE POINTS A GAME, JUST OVER FIVE REBOUNDS.

SHE'S A STAT STUFFER REGION TO PLAYER OF THE YEAR LEADER IN CHARGE THE POINT GUARD.

SHE JUST GIVES 100% AT BOTH ENDS OF THE FLOOR.

SO, BOTH THESE PLAYERS GOING TO BE INSTRUMENTAL FOR THEIR TEAMS TONIGHT.

OKAY TABITHA, THANK YOU.

THANK YOU FOR THAT THEATER.

NOW, WITH THE BALL, TRY TO CALM THINGS DOWN.

GRIFFIN IS 147 HERE TO START BALDWIN JUST 125.

THOMPSON'S UP THAT WON'T GO MAKE THAT DURHAM AND EXACTLY BASKET THE GAME FOR THEM GRIFFIN'S GETTING GOOD SHOTS AT THE RIM THEY'RE JUST NOT FALLING THEIR HIGH PERCENTAGE SHOTS.

SO THEY JUST GOT TO TAKE AN EXTRA BEAT GIVE A PUMP FAKE OR OR SOMETHING AND KNOCK HIM DOWN FALLON THAT PUTBACK.

CASSIDY NEIL TRYING TO PUT THAT BACK IN JUST A SOPHOMORE AND SHE WILL GO TO THE LINE AND SHOOT TWO.

NEIL GIVING HER TEAMMATES ANOTHER OPPORTUNITY AT THE RIM WITH THE OFF AT OFFENSIVE REBOUNDING.

AND THAT'S ONE OF THE KEYS FOR THIS GRIFFIN.

TEAM IS BOX OUT AND REBOUND.

THEY KNOW, THEY CAN'T GET IT DONE.

IF THEY ALLOW HER TO REBOUND AND HAVE SECOND CHANCE OPPORTUNITIES, CHECK THAT JANAI WALKER.

ACTUALLY 62 SOPHOMORE.

NUMBER 32, JAMYA EASILY.

NOW IN THE GAME VERY EARLY ON THE JUNIOR AND WALKER MAKES THE SECOND ONE OR TWO.

SO OPEN UP 3-2 HERE, EARLY ON APPROACHING THE HALFWAY POINT IN THIS FIRST QUARTER.

NICE, CUT TO THE BASKET THERE, IT'S GOOD.

FINALLY, ONE OF THOSE HIGH PERCENTAGE SHOTS IN THE PAINT FOR GRIFFIN FALLING, HOPEFULLY, THAT GETS THEM GOING ON THE OFFENSE EVENT SIDE THOMPSON, AND NOW SITTING UP ON THE FULL COURT PRESS.

ALL WINDBREAKS THAT DRIVE TO THE BASKET UP AND NO GOOD.

THAT'S ROUGH EASILY ON THE PUTBACK ATTEMPT.

SHE'S FOULED AND NOW SHE WILL GET A CHANCE.

SO, AGAIN WITH ANOTHER OFFENSIVE REBOUND FOR BALDWIN, THEY'VE HAD SECOND CHANCE OPPORTUNITIES AT THE RIM ON THE LAST TWO.

THEY'VE BEEN ABLE TO GET THAT SECOND CHANCE OPPORTUNITY OFF AN OFFENSIVE REBOUND.

THEN STOP THE CLOCK AND HAVE A CHANCE AT THE FREE-THROW LINE.

HE'S LEE SINKS THE FIRST SUBSTITUTION NOW, FOR GRIFFIN INTO THE GAME, FOR THE FIRST TIME IS SAMAYA PUCKETT.

SHE'S A 6-3.

SENIOR, THEY BROUGHT IN SIZE BECAUSE THEY WERE HAVING ISSUES OF THE REBOUNDING.

SECOND FREE THROW BOUNCES OFF NO GOOD.

SO GRIFFIN MAKE THAT BALDWIN 2004 FOR THE LINE EARLY ON HE RETIRED AT FOUR DURA WITH A THREE-POINT ATTEMPT MONEY FOR THE LEFT-HANDER PRETTY SHOT.

THEY GOT THE BALL TO HER QUICKLY, HER RELEASES SO QUICK, THE DEFENSE WAS TOO SLOW TO GET THERE AND DEFEND.

221 PRESS BROKEN, THEY'RE NICELY DONE BY BALDWIN BACK IN THE HANDS OF MADISON.

ROUGH THE JUNIOR DOES IT ALL NICE MOVE INSIDE AND SHE'S SO ROUGH WENT TO HER RIGHT TO BEGIN THIS PLAY.

AND IF YOU LOOK, SHE SPLITS THE DEFENDERS THAT WAS A THREE BALL BEFOREHAND WITH THE PRETTY STROKE FOR GRIFFIN.

BUT ON THE OPPOSITE END OF THAT FOR BALDWIN, THE REASON WHY THEY HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO STOP THE CLOCK AND GET TO THE FREE-THROW LINE.

IS BECAUSE THE PENETRATION, SHE'S AN EXCELLENT JOB OF DRIVING AND SWITCHING HANDS, AND SWITCHING DIRECTIONS WHEN SHE GOT IN THE PAINT.

AND THAT'S THE SECOND FOUL.

ALVERS.

I THOMPSON.

SO SHE COMES OUT.

RAMAIAH HARRIS.

THIS 511 SOFTWARE COMES IN AND HER PLACE.

SEE THEIR MORGAN.

ROUGH ALSO SITTING DOWN THE JUNIOR.

SO FIRST FREE-THROW WAS NO GOOD.

SECOND ONE IS IN FOR MADISON ROUGH ALL.

BUT NOW WITHIN 75 LOB UP TOP GOOD DEFENSE BY BALL WENT UP AND IN AND THERE IT IS FIRST BASKET FOR HARRISON THE GAME GRIFFITH TO A 95 ADVANTAGE AND THAT WAS AN EXCELLENT PASS.

SHE DROVE IN DREW THE DEFENDERS AND SPLIT THE DEFENSE SOMEHOW FOUND THE NEEDLE IN THE HAYSTACK.

IF THAT POCKET ON THE BASKETBALL, JUST CAME INTO 6 THREE, SENIOR WHO JUST ENTERED THE GAME, A FEW MOMENTS AGO UNDER THE 3-MINUTE MARK.

NOW 95 GRIFFIN AND A TRAVELING CALL.

AND FOR PUCKETT, SHE'S A PLAYER WHO'S COMING BACK FROM AN ACL INJURY.

THEY JUST GOT HER BACK THIS PAST JANUARY.

SHE STILL GETTING COMFORTABLE WITH HERSELF.

SO SHE'S GETTING SOME EARLY PLAYING TIME IN THIS ONE.

THE LOOK INSIDE.

THAT'S POCKET, CAN'T GET THAT TO GO WALKER ON THE REBOUND, GET A FULL COURT PRESS.

BROKEN BY BALDWIN.

AND WITH THE PRESS, THEY'RE JUST TRYING TO TAKE TIME OFF.

THE CLOCK, IS WHAT IT SEEMS.

IT'S NOT TOO AGGRESSIVE OF A PRESS.

I DON'T REALLY SEE ANY TRAPS OUT OF IT.

DON'T LIKE THE FIRST GAME.

WE SAW LINCOLN COUNTY ACADEMY WITH A TENACIOUS.

FULL-COURT PRESS IT.

REALLY MADE A DIFFERENCE FOR THEM WALKER IS TIED UP UNDERNEATH.

AND IT'S GOING TO REMAIN, BALDWIN BALL, T4 TIED UP, AND T4 TRIPLE TEAM.

THAT'S RIGHT TROUBLE WITH THAT WAS A TRIPLE T THERE, SHE LITERALLY HAD THREE WHITE JERSEYS AROUND HER AND EVEN THOUGH IT WORKED ON THAT ONE TO TIE THE BALL UP, IF SHE KEEPS THAT BALL UP, THAT'S A DIFFERENT DIFFERENT STORY.

SHE'S GOT A HOLD THAT BALL.

HIGH UP ABOVE HER HEAD.

COME ON COACH'S KID, YOU KNOW, THAT POSSESSION ARROW ACTUALLY IN THE DIRECTION OF GRIFFIN.

SO THE BEARS WILL TAKE OVER.

NO, WAIT A MINUTE.

NOPE, WAS RIGHT.

THE FIRST TIME, OKAY.

IF THE CONFUSION WAS GRIFFIN, GOT THE BALL AND IMMEDIATELY TURN HAD THE TURNOVER.

SO GRIFFIN DID WIN THE TIP, BUT TURNED IT OVER IMMEDIATELY.

AFTER THE TIP, GREAT DEFENSIVE, PLAY THERE TO KNOCK THE BALL OFF A BALDWIN PLAYER.

GREAT JOB THERE BY LEAH TURNER, TO MAKE THAT HAPPEN TO 57 SENIOR.

WE HAD TURNER JUST GOT OUR HANDS AT THEIR, SHE'S HAD A DEFLECTION OR TO ALREADY THIS GAME, THAT TIME JUST COMES UP WITH THE FORCED TURNOVER.

JOSE, NICE PASS TO DURHAM TOO.

HARD REBOUNDERS LOOSE BACK IN THE HANDS OF DURHAM.

TURNER JOSE FOR 30 IN AND OUT REBOUND ON THE FLOOR AND TIED UP AGAIN.

THIS TIME THIS WILL STAY HERE WITH GRIFFIN AND BOY DARREN IS ALL OVER THE PLACE.

I MEAN, SHE'S HAD HER HANDS ON EVERY BALL.

EVERY POSSESSION, RIGHT THERE.

SHE GOT ON THE FLOOR, WAS THE FIRST ON THE FLOOR TO TIE IT UP AND THOSE ARE THE HUSTLE PLAYS THAT ARE GOING TO MAKE THE BIGGEST DIFFERENCE IN THIS GAME.

LIKE, WE'RE STILL IN THE FIRST QUARTER RIGHT NOW, BUT BELIEVE YOU ME, THOSE HUSTLE PLAYS WHEN IT COMES DOWN TO THE WITH PORTER, EVERY ONE OF THOSE ARE GOING TO MATTER.

CAN I WALK HER ZIPS DOWN CASSIDY NEAL COMES BACK IN DURHAM UP TOP BACK TO THE AM BOUND TO TURNER AND AN OFFENSIVE FOUL CALLED ON THE BLOCK THERE.

LOOK LIKE THAT WAS RAMAIAH HARRIS.

NUMBER 11, IT'S HER FIRST FOUL.

IT'S PHYSICAL DOWN THERE ON THE POST.

YOU'RE TRYING TO FIGHT PER POSITION BUT THE DEFENDERS JOB IS TO MOVE YOU OFF THE BLOCK.

ALL WOULD JUST ONE FIELD GOAL.

YOU SEE THE GRAVITY DURING YOUR SCREEN UNDER 90 SECONDS TO GO JUMP SHOT THERE BY NEIL IS OFF BACK INTO THE HANDS.

I'VE HER TEAMMATES WILLIAMS THAT DIDN'T GO AND IT'S OUT OF BALANCE TO THE PAIR'S FOLLOWING.

DID A NICE JOB THOUGH OF BREAKING THAT PRESS, IT WAS A LITTLE BIT MORE AGGRESSIVE BY GRIFFIN ON THAT WHEN THEY ATTEMPTED TO TRAP.

BUT BOLIN'S, GOT SOME REALLY GOOD PASTORS THAT ARE ABLE TO THREAD THE NEEDLE AND KIND OF SPLIT THE DEFENSE.

THEY MADE SOME REALLY NICE PASSES, SO FAR IN THIS WORLD, DURING THE ONE MINUTE, MARK, TRYING TO GO UP TOP LIKE TO DURHAM WAS TOO HIGH IN THE TURNOVER THERE FOR GRIFFIN.

THAT'S THEIR FIFTH TURNOVER OF THE QUARTER.

BALDWIN TURNED IT OVER FOUR TIMES AND I THINK IT'S A LITTLE UGLY TO BEGIN BECAUSE THIS IS THE FOURTH MEETING FOR THESE TWO TEAMS.

THEY BOTH CAME INTO THIS KNOWING IT'S GOING TO BE A DOGFIGHT.

WHAT'S GOING TO BREAK THE PRESS FAIRLY EASILY UP AND IN GREAT JOB THERE BY A MAIA MITCHELL?

AND MITCHELL WENT STRAIGHT AT THE DEFENSE.

SHE JUST SQUARED UP SQUARED HER BODY TO THE RIM AND MADE SURE TO FOCUS IN ON THAT LITTLE BOX AND BANK IT IN LIKE THAT PASCAL IS A CARRY, A PASCAL IN THE GAME.

THE JUNIOR.

AND TO SEE WALKER COMING BACK IN, SHE WAS, SHE HAS BEEN OUTSTANDING IN THIS GAME.

SO FAR, EMILY AND SIDE HAD COME IN, AND SHE TAKES A SEAT.

NOW IN THE FINAL 40 SECONDS, DURING LEFTY 18-FOOTER, THAT'S NO GOOD WALKER THE REBOUND.

AND WALKER JUST BOUGHT THE REBOUND RIGHT TO PUFF.

YEAH, THAT'S THE THING SHE ALREADY HAD.

CROWDS, I DON'T THINK SHE KNEW PUCKETT WAS ON HER LEFT SIDE, BUT KIND OF BROUGHT IT RIGHT INTO HER NONETHELESS.

SHE'S A REBOUND TO BE SHE'S THE REASON WHY THEY'VE BEEN ABLE TO SECURE EXTRA POSSESSIONS IN THIS GAME, POCKET COMMITTED, THE FOUL, IT'S HER FIRST.

A LOT OF FOULS ALREADY IN THE BONUS.

SO JANAI WALKER.

NOW, SHOOTING ONE-ON-ONE 62 SOPHOMORE.

NO GOOD.

IT'S A GRIFFIN.

A CHANCE TO BUILD ON THEIR LEAD.

THEY'VE MISSED THE LAST FOUR SHOTS.

LEAH.

TURNER SETTING THINGS UP KAMIYA.

STARKS IN THE GAME.

NUMBER FOUR.

55 JUNIOR.

CLOCK WINDING DOWN AT A FOUL THERE THAT STUFF THAT'S ON PASCAL AND MAKE THAT JASMINE WILLIAMS.

AND THAT'S HER FIRST, I LIKE TO SEE SOME MORE BALL MOVEMENT FROM FROM GRIFFIN.

IT'S LIKE WEBER HAS THE BALL IN THEIR HAND.

THEY'RE GOOD AT CREATING OFF THE BOUNCE BUT YOU'RE NOT GETTING YOUR OTHER TEAMMATES INVOLVED.

THE BALL IS NOT MOVING.

SO THE DEFENSE ISN'T BREAKING DOWN.

THAT'S WHY IT SEEMS SO STAGNANT RIGHT NOW.

THERE'S ONLY ONE AND DONES GOOD DEFENSE THERE.

SO GRIFFIN, DO THEY HAVE A SHOT IN HER ARSENAL?

IT'S 4.9, THEY'LL BE TO HELP HIM.

GOOD JOB DEFENSIVELY.

THERE AGAIN TO DENY STARKS A GOOD LOOK AT THE BASKET.

SO, THERE WE GO.

A LOW SCORING FIRST QUARTER.

BUT IT EXCITING AT THE SAME TIME GRIFFIN EARLY ON WITH THE 97 LEAD.

THE FOURTH MEETING BETWEEN THESE TWO REGIONAL FOALS 2ND QUARTER ACTION TIPS OFF AT TO THIS HEY GUYS IT'S TIME TO REVEAL WHAT I'M DOING AFTER GRADUATION.

I GOT MY CUPCAKE SO I GOT MY SCHOOL'S LET'S JUST DO IT.

CUPCAKES AREN'T REALLY MY THING AND NEITHER IS GOING TO A FOUR-YEAR COLLEGE.

INSTEAD, I'M GETTING PAID $18, AN HOUR TO TRAIN AS A COMMERCIAL PLUMBER.

THERE'S A TON OF OTHER TRAITS LIKE ELECTRICAL AND CARPENTRY WHERE YOU CAN MAKE GREAT MONEY LIVE.

A GREAT LIFE STYLE WITH LITTLE TO NO DEBT AND EVEN BE YOUR OWN BOSS.

LET ME KNOW IF I CAN HELP YOU WITH ANYTHING JUST LOOKING I ONLY BUY LOCAL AND SUSTAINABLE SO WELL THAT'S SURE IT'S NOT LOCAL.

@G A RED RIBBON DOT-ORG.

1/4 IN THE BOOKS FROM THE MACON COLISEUM CLASS 4A CHAMPIONSHIP GRIFFIN.

ON TOP NINE SEVEN OF THESE GRIFFIN BEARS.

YOU KNOW WHAT?

TOP OF THE WATER JOB THAT ROY JOHNSON HAS DONE IN HIS FIRST SEASON WITH THE BEARS?

YEAH, THE ATLANTA NATIVE, HE HAS A SAYING, THE KIND OF MADE ME LAUGH, PUT THE G IN GRIFFIN, PUT ON FOR THE G AND BEING AN ATLANTA NATIVE.

WE ALL KNOW, THAT'S KIND OF LIKE PUT ON THROUGH THE ACE.

I LOVE THAT HE'S ADOPTED THAT AND TAKE THAT INSTILL, THAT PRIDE IN HIS HIS LADY BEARS.

WELL, JUMP SHOT THERE AND THERE WE GO.

EMILY ADD SITE GETS THAT ONE TO GO.

BUT THAT MORGAN ROUGH.

LOOK HOW QUICK THEY GOT DOWN THE COURT.

AND YOU KNOW AS WE JUST TOUCHED ON COACH JOHNSON, HE WANTS THIS TO BE MORE OF A ATTRACT STYLISH TEAM LIKE A TEAM, AXE HIM AND JOKES, IF THEY WERE CROSS COUNTRY TEAM AS THEY GRIFFIN GETS EASY TO OR VALGUS EASY TO EXCUSE ME, BUT IT'S TEAM JOKE THAT THEY WERE CROSS COUNTRY TEAM BECAUSE THEY RUN SO MUCH CASSIDY KNEEL ON THAT BASKET.

IT'S HER FIRST ON THE NIGHT.

TIED AT 11.

MOCKING CALL THERE.

IS THAT WAS ROUGH COMING IN AND I LIKE THAT.

ROUGH ATTEMPTED TO TAKE THAT CHARGE BECAUSE THAT TELLS ME, THIS IS A PLAYER THAT HAS AN EXTENDED BASKETBALL LIKE YOU ON THE NEXT LEVEL THAT'S GOING TO BE TAUGHT IN COLLEGE, AND THAT'S THAT'S BIG TIME TO BE ABLE TO DRAW CHARGER.

SO GOOD JOB THERE BY ROUGH.

MADISON ROBERTS, HER HER FIRST FOUL VERY QUICKLY.

NOW JASMINE WILLIAMS CALLED FOR THE FOUL.

AND THAT'S HER SECOND.

AND PUCKETT.

WHO'S AT THE FREE-THROW LINE?

I MEAN SHE AS I MENTIONED ALREADY IN THE FIRST QUARTER SHE JUST GOT BACK FREE MUCH.

THIS JANUARY WAS REHABBING FROM AN ACL INJURY FROM LAST SEASON AND SHE JUST REALLY HELPED THIS BALL WHEN TEAM A LOT.

SHE'S TOUGH AS NAILS AND SHE'S IN BETTER SHAPE AND MORE COMFORTABLE WITH THE OFFENSE.

SO, WE'VE SEEN HER GETTING THIS GAME, VERY EARLY BECAUSE OF FOUL TROUBLE TO THE STARTING POST PLAYER MARKET ALREADY COMMITTED TO EAST TENNESSEE, STATE TO PLAY NEXT YEAR.

SIX THROUGHOUT THE BENCH AND YOU'RE RIGHT, THE VETERAN PRESENCE, SHE BRINGS OFF THE BENCH FOR THAT.

FREE THROW IS GOOD.

SO GRIFFIN BREAKS THE TIE.

YOU SEE THEIR BALDWIN VERY QUICKLY WITH THE COUPLE OF DUAL GOALS.

50 MOVES ARE GREAT FOOTWORK.

NICE EURO-STEP.

I MEAN, I SEEN THAT DONE ON THE HIGH SCHOOL LEVEL TO OFTEN WITHOUT A TRAVEL.

BUT RIGHT THERE, CASSIDY NEAL GOT THAT ONE TO GO, PRETTY MOVE.

JUMP, SHOT IS SHORT.

THAT'S FROM TURNER.

BACK TO THE WAY NOW.

WELL, WHEN TRYING TO BREAK THE PRESS, AND THEY DO MADISON ROUGH, ALL BY YOURSELF, THE SASSY, JUNIOR GETTING IT DONE.

PAUL WENT UP BY ONE NOW, TRYING TO SETTLE DOWN.

JUST A 2-2 GAME IN THE FIRST FOUR MINUTES.

LOT OF JUST BAD SHOTS, BEING PUT UP AT BOTH TEAMS.

NOW, SETTLING DOWN, GETTING IN THEIR OFFENSE, IT'S MADISON.

ROUGH LIKE THAT.

JANAI WALKER TRYING TO TURN AND MAKE A MOVE BUT SHE'S FOULED BOIL.

BOY, WHEN YOU LOOK AT THIS BALL WENT TEAM AND THE POST THEY'VE GOT BETWEEN WALKER AND NEIL, GRIFFIN'S GONNA HAVE THEIR HANDS FULL TONIGHT.

YOU ALREADY SEE THE DOUBLE-TEAM, COMING EACH TIME, ONE OF THOSE TWO PLAYERS.

CATCHES THE BALL AND JUST LOOK AT THE NUMBERS.

SHE'S A DOUBLE-DOUBLE MACHINE, 12 AND A HALF POINTS GAME.

12 REBOUNDS ALSO ASSIST AND HAS A COUPLE OF SEALS IN THERE THAT FOUL WAS CALLED ON SAMAYA POCKETS.

SO HER SECOND OFF THE BENCH AND THAT BRINGS A CHANGE.

SHE GOES OUT CASEY SMITES, STARTER 510, JUNIOR COMES BACK IN GOOD.

LOOK AT JANAI WALKER.

AGAIN, JUST A SOPHOMORE.

SHE'S GONNA BE A PIECE.

SHE IS, SHE'S ALREADY AT BEING SECOND, ONE'S GOOD.

SHE MAKES ONE OF TWO TWO POINT LEAD FOR BALDWIN.

NICE PASS INSIDE.

A NICE COLLECTION OF THAT PASS BACK TO TURNER.

WE HAVE THE CORNER BUT SHE TRAVELED FROM MAYA STARTS TOOK AN EXTRA STEP BEFORE SHE MADE HER MOVE TOWARD THE BASKET.

SIXTH TURNOVER.

NOW FOR GRIFFIN, FIRST ONE OF THOSE CORNER, THEY GOT TO BE ABLE TO HANDLE THAT.

NOT TURN THE BALL OVER ESPECIALLY WHEN IT'S UNFORCED LIKE THAT.

BUT I DID LIKE THE BALL MOVEMENT AND THE PENETRATION FOOTBALL WENT ON THAT POSSESSION.

THE WORK INSIDE.

WOW.

CASSIDY NEIL TO HOLD DOWN HER BASE, REACH OUT AND GET THAT COLLECT YOURSELF AND GO BACK UP BECAUSE HE'S BETTER.

SELL HER TEAMMATES STAYED ON THE OPPOSITE BECAUSE THEY KNEW SHE CAN HANDLE.

SHE WAS ONE ON THREE.

ALL WHEN TRYING TO TAKE CONTROL HERE, THAT'S A THREE-POINTER IS NO GOOD.

THAT'S AGAIN BY DURHAM OUT THERE, CAN'T GET THAT TO GO.

BUT A FOUL ANOTHER FOUL ON GRIFFIN AND THOSE BEGINNING TO PILE UP A BIT, YOU KNOW, THE CALLS BELONG TO THE AGGRESSOR AND RIGHT NOW BALL, WHEN IS THE TEAM?

THAT'S THE AGGRESSOR.

THEY'RE THE TEAM THAT'S DIVING ON THE FLOOR FOR THOSE LOOSE BALLS OR THE TEAM THAT'S PENETRATING AND GRABBING THOSE EXTRA REBOUNDS.

AND SO, ALL THAT MOMENTUM IS IN THEIR FAVOR.

THE REFS TEND TO GO THAT WAY AS WELL.

WE'RE NOT HARRISON RIGHT HERE.

ALTER HER SECOND.

THOMPSON.

ALSO, WITH TO AND PUCKETT WITH TO, FOR THE PAIRS INSIDE THE WALKER, OFF THE BACKBOARD AND END.

I MEAN, SHE'S JUST WELL THE JOB HAS TO START THE OUTSIDE OF THE PAINT.

YOU CAN'T ALLOW HER TO GET TWO FEET IN THE PAINT AND WALKERS JUST STRONG.

SHE'S REALLY GOOD.

SO YOU CAN'T TAKE AWAY EVERYTHING SHE DOES BUT YOU CAN'T LIMIT WHAT SHE DOES.

AS SHE COMES DOWN WITH ANOTHER REBOUND, 70 RUN.

NOW FOR BALDWIN BIGGEST LEAD OF THE GAME AT 1812 ROUGH, TRYING TO ADD ON TO THAT SHOT OFF TOO.

BACKBOARD, NO GOOD.

BUT COLLECTED BY NEIL.

AND A FRESH CLOCK.

AND JUST PAY ATTENTION TO WHAT PAUL WHEN HE'S DOING.

THEY'VE GOT BOTH WALKER AND KNEEL ON THE SAME SIDE AS THAT PASSES OVERTHROWN.

WHAT A STRIP RIGHT THERE BY WILLIAMS.

A LOT OF BODIES ON THE FLOOR.

TWO BALDWIN PLAYERS STILL DOWN THERE, THEY'RE GOING TO CALL A DOUBLE DRIBBLE APPEAR, THE MADISON ROUGH, DRIBBLED IT OFF HER THIGH, AND WE'RE GOING TO CALL A TIME OUT THERE FOR 20 TO GO IS BOY.

THINGS HAVE REALLY PICKED UP YOUR THIS QUARTER WHAT A JOB THERE BY MORGAN, ROUGH WALKER'S DOMINANT AND PASCAL GETS IT DONE SIX-POINT LEAD FOR BALDWIN.

SWEETHEART.

THAT'S DURHAM WITH THE ATTEMPT THAT'S MISS.

BUT SHE WAS PUSHED IN.

SO SHE'LL GET A COUPLE OF TRIES AT THE FREE THROW LINE.

AND KISSY WALKER BALDWIN HEAD.

COACH TOLD US ONE OF THE KEYS WAS TO BE ABLE TO BOX OUT AND STOP ALIA DURING HIM.

AND THAT HASN'T BEEN DONE SO FAR THIS GAME.

SHE'S GOT SEVEN POINTS AND SHE'S JUST BEEN AGGRESSIVE.

SHE HAS SHE'S A SHOOTER WITH NO CONSCIENCE.

SHE WILL FIRE UP THOSE 3S.

NO NOTHING DOING WELL, SHE'S ALSO THE BEST DEFENDER, SHE'S LONG AND ATHLETIC.

SHE'S SLASHER.

SHE CAN DO A BIT OF EVERYTHING.

SHE JUMPS THE BALL FOR THIS TEAM.

I DON'T KNOW IF ANYBODY NOTICED THAT BUT SHE DOES THE JUMP BALL, RIGHT?

AND OUR COACH TOLD US THAT SHE THINKS, HE'S ONLY MISSED THREE OF THEM.

IT'S AMAZING.

HE'S FIVE FOOT NINE KIDS BOTH FREE THROWS THERE.

HERE'S THE BALL WENT OFF AT.

YOU CAN SEE WALKER, NEIL.

WHAT THEY HAVE DONE.

THEY HAVE BEEN OUTSTANDING AND REALLY CARRYING THIS TEAM SO FAR TRIPLE-TEAMING SIDE ON WALKER, GOOD ACTIVE HANDS AT PAYS OFF, SAY THAT BALL WAS DEFLECTED.

ACTED OUT OF BOUNDS BY GRIFFIN.

IT'LL REMAIN ON THIS END.

SPEAKING OF KNEEL, BY THE WAY, THREE, SHE'S GOT SIX POINTS IN THE QUARTER.

WALKER, ALREADY WITH THREE, FOUR BOWMAN COULD LOOK AT ROY, JOHNSON, THE BAYLOR, THE BAYLOR, THEN GRIFFIN BEARS NOT, BAYLOR, BEARS, SAME COLORS.

FIGURE OUT HOW TO STOP THEM ON THE OTHER END.

MY EYELID INSPIRATION, NICE JUMPER THERE.

THAT'S PASCAL WITH THE JUMPER.

THE JUNIOR OFF.

THE BENCH HAS BEEN ACTIVE TONIGHT.

A FOUL CALLED THERE.

LOOKS LIKE THAT'S GOING TO BE.

SHE MIGHT EASILY THAT'S HER FIRST.

FOR BALDWIN.

OUT OF MILLEDGEVILLE.

COACH WALKER PLAYED FOR THEM EVER.

GOT TO A TITLE GOOD DEFENSE HERE FORCES TO TRAVEL TO MAYA STARKS TURNS IT OVER.

IT GOES THE OTHER WAY AND THAT'S REALLY TOUGH.

STARKS A BIT FRUSTRATED WITH HERSELF AND YOU SEE DURING HAM PUT THE HAND ON HER SHOULDER.

IT'S OKAY.

NEXT PLAY.

YOU'VE GOT TO HAVE A SHORT, A SHORT, I GUESS MINDSET WHEN IT COMES TO LETTING THINGS GO.

SHE'S OBVIOUSLY UPSET WITH HERSELF.

AND FOR GRIFFIN THEY NEEDED THAT POSSESSION WANTED TO GET INTO THEIR SETS AS THEY TRAIL BY SIX WITH THREE.

MINUTES LEFT IN THE SECOND.

THANK YOU, DIDN'T SIDEWALKER, TRIPLE TEAM, DOESN'T MATTER AND ONE.

OH MAN.

OH NO, MY WALKER TABITHA, WHAT DO YOU KNOW?

I MEAN, SHE IS STRONG, SHE GETS THE REBOUND, GIVES THEM A SECOND CHANCE OPPORTUNITY.

FIRST OF ALL, SHE CATCHES IT THROUGH THREE DEFENDERS, AND ONE.

SHE'S SO STRONG.

SO STRONG AND SHE'S SMART.

THAT'S THE THING SHE HAS GOOD FOOTWORK.

SO IT'S NOT LIKE, SHE'S JUST, YOU KNOW, LIKE SOMEBODY WHO'S TALL AND STANDS ABOVE EVERYBODY.

ADIOS KNOW, SHE'S MOVING.

THEY'RE SENDING TWO OR THREE DEFENDERS AT HER BY THE WAY, THAT FOUL WAS A THIRD ON RANIA HARRIS OFF THE BENCH.

SO AGAIN THE FOUL PROBLEMS CONTINUE TO MOUNT STERNER FOR THE LONG THREE BACK.

IRON.

NO UP.

HIGH TO SECURE.

THE REBOUND IS EASILY.

SO AGAIN FOR TURNER, LONG SHOT, LONG REBOUNDS BUT THERE'S NOBODY IN REBOUNDING POSITION BECAUSE IT'S JUST THE FIRST SHOT OF THE POSSESSION OF THE FIRST PASS.

NO, DEFENSE HAS BROKEN DOWN AS NEIL STEPS INTO THE ONE.

PULL UP.

NICE MOVE THERE AGAIN.

YOU'VE GOT A GOOD ONE IN THE MIDDLE, TRYING TO KEEP THE BALL AWAY FROM WALKER.

THAT'S GOING TO OPEN SOME THINGS.

AND ANOTHER TRAVEL, ANOTHER TURNOVER FOR GRIFFIN.

THAT'S AT LEAST OUR THIRD TRAVELING CALL THAT THEY'VE HAD 13 TO RUN.

RIGHT NOW FOR BALDWIN AND COACH JOHNSON, TRY TO FIND SOME ANSWERS EIGHT TURNOVERS FOR HIS BEARS.

THEY NEED TO CLEAN UP A FEW THINGS OR RIGHT HERE FOR BALDWIN THE NICE TO DRIBBLE.

I SAID, WONDERFUL.

PULL UP.

IT WAS TWO DRIBBLES, BUT SHE STILL KNOCKED IT OUT OVER TWO DEFENDERS.

THE HELP CAME, BUT IT WASN'T ENOUGH TO LIVE A SO FAST TO GET THIS.

SO, BALDWIN NOW VERY QUICKLY AS OPEN UP A TEN-POINT LEAD.

AND THE GETTING IT DONE ALL OVER THE PLACE.

BUT YOU TALKED ABOUT AGAIN, JOHN, I WALKER'S, WE MENTIONED BEFORE AGAIN, JUST A SOPHOMORE 62.

WE KEEP SAYING THAT BUT SHE HAS JUST BEEN SO IMPRESSIVE IN THIS 13-2 RUN.

SHE'S GOT FIVE OF THOSE POINTS, AND NEAL, YOU TWO SAW THE JUMPER A MOMENT AGO, ALREADY HAS FOUR POINTS HERE IN THIS RUN.

I MEAN, WHEN YOU LOOK AT THIS BALL WHEN TEAM AFTER TALKING TO COACH CASEY WALKER, WHO WE SEE ON THE SCREEN RIGHT NOW, THIS IS A TEAM THAT SHE BROUGHT EVERYBODY BACK EXCEPT FOR ONE PLAYER.

SHE GRADUATED ONE SENIOR, WHO JUST SO HAPPENED TO BE THE MAIN SCORER.

NOW, WHEN YOU RETURN TEAM THIS YEAR?

YES, YOUR WHOLE TEAM IS PRETTY MUCH BACK.

BUT NOW THEY WERE CONFUSED AT THE BEGINNING OF THE YEAR SO THEY DIDN'T START OFF THE WAY THAT THEY EXPECTED TO.

BUT AROUND DECEMBER, SHE SAID IT STARTED TO CLICK WHERE THEY STARTED TO BUY IN AND EVERYBODY STARTED TO KNOW THEIR ROLES IN POSITION.

SO MORE PEOPLE NOW, STARTING TO TAKE OWNERSHIP AND SCORE THE BASKETBALL AND BOY, OH BOY, WALKER AND NEAL ARE TWO OF THE BEST THAT THEY HAVE DOWNLOAD.

YOU SEE ALMOST A DOUBLE-DOUBLE IN THE FIRST HALF RIGHT THERE.

YEAH SHE SAID THAT THEY PLAYED 5 A 6, A 7 8 SCHOOLS LOSING MY SINGLE DIGITS BUT THEY LEARNED A LOT IN THAT.

ANOTHER MORE PROBLEMS WITH THE BALL HANDLING FOR GRIFFIN BALL IS ON THE FLOOR, THEY'LL CALL IT JUMP BALL POSSESSION.

ARROW IS STAY HERE WITH GRIFFIN.

IT'S HOESLEY INSIDE FOR POCKET.

BACK IN THE GAME WITH TWO FOULS TURNER NEARLY TAKEN AWAY.

GOOD DEFENSE HERE BY BALDWIN DEEP-POCKETED.

THE WORD GO LOOK AT THAT DURING THEM SO SO SORRY LARRY I CUT YOU OFF ON BACK ON MY PLAYING DAYS RIGHT NOW IT / COACHING DAYS THEY HAD TO INTERJECT THERE BECAUSE THE DEFENSE DID ROTATE BUT DURING HAVE BAILED THEM OUT.

WITH THAT MADE SHOT.

BUT IF YOU SAW PUCKETT SHE WAS TRIPLE-TEAMED ON THE BASELINE BECAUSE THEY KEPT GOING BACK TO THE RIGHT SIDE.

YEAH YOU GOTTA GET IT SIDE TO SIDE.

I GET THE DEFENSE TO MOVE AND GET HIM OFF BALANCE.

YOU'RE RIGHT.

THAT SHOT WON'T GO.

BUT GUESS WHO IS THEIR AD SIDE MISSED?

BUT WALKER.

IS THERE FOR THE REBOUND, HER NINTH OF THE GAME AND IT'S GOT A CHANCE TO TWO MORE FREE THROWS.

YOU KNOW, I THOUGHT HER MOM WAS JOKING WHEN SHE SAYS SHE'S A DOUBLE-DOUBLE QUEEN.

SHE'S ALMOST GOT A DOUBLE-DOUBLE IN THE FIRST RIGHT, HALF?

AND IT DIDN'T COME EASY, SHE'S WORKED LIKE SHE'S MOVING HER FEET.

SHE'S REBOUNDING THE BALL OVER TWO AND THREE DEFENDERS.

SHE'S JUST OUT WORKING EVERYBODY ON THE FLOOR, AND SHE'S GETTING A LOT OF GRIFFIN PLAYERS IN THE FOUL TROUBLE.

YEP.

BECAUSE HE WALKER TELLING US THAT'S HOW THEY BEAT THEM AT THEIR PLACE.

SO, FOLLOWING THE GAME PLAN, FIRST FREE THROW IS GOOD, SO THAT'S NOW PUCKETTS THIRD TO GO ALONG WITH HARRIS WITH THREE.

SO TWO OF YOUR INTERIOR PLAYERS, IN FOUL TROUBLE HERE AT HALFTIME.

AND THAT'S A CAUSE ROY JOHNSON, A LOT OF PROBLEMS IN THE SECOND.

HALF BECAUSE IT APPEARS THAT JANAI WALKER IS JUST GETTING STARTED.

SUCH A GOOD FREE-THROW SHOOTER, THEY PULL EVERYONE OFF THE KEY.

MRS. THAT WHEN ONE OF TWO BALDWIN WITH AN EIGHT-POINT LEAD HERE AT THE 92ND MARK UNTIL HALFTIME HANNAH, GOOD, AND JOINING US IN THE STUDIO AT THE HALF WITH UPDATES, AND HIGHLIGHTS OF THE FIRST TWO CHAMPIONSHIPS, BOTH.

AND THE CLASS 1A DIVISION, TWO FINALS, SMITES, SHE GETS IT TO GO, THE THREE, GOOD FIND ON THE ARK, ON THE, UM, ON THE PERIMETER.

BUT AGAIN, THE BALL WAS ON THE LEFT SIDE OF THE FLOOR, WHAT HAPPENED?

THEY ROTATE AT THE BALL SIDE TO SIDE.

OPEN SHOOTER.

WHAT DO YOU KNOW?

SHE KNOCKS.

IT DOWN.

PASCAL FOR THE JUMPER.

IT'S TOO HARD.

NEAL CAN'T GET IT TO GO.

MAKE ANOTHER REBOUND AND THAT'S OFF AND IT'LL BE JAMIYAH EASILY.

GOING IN AND IT APPEARS A FOUL IS ON SMITES.

JUST GRIFFIN'S LAST BASKET SHOT GOES UP AND LOOK AT THE DEFENSE THEY BARELY HAD TIME TO RECOVER, SHE HAD AT LEAST THREE SECONDS TO SET HER FEET AND GET HER SHOT SET NOTHING BUT NET BUT THAT'S WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU MOVE THE BALL FROM SIDE TO SIDE, HE BREAK DOWN THE DEFENSE.

THEY CAN'T RECOVER HIS QUICK CASEY SPIKES WITH HER FIRST FOUL.

AS THE FIRST FREE, THROW IS NO GOOD ALREADY.

THE 13TH FREE THROW FOR BALDWIN MISSING THAT 1 TO 5 OF 13.

NOW FOR ME FROM THE CHARITY SHOP.

IMAGINE WITH THE SCORE WOULD BE AT THEY'D HIT A FEW FREE.

THROWS, FREE THROWS WIN GAMES.

SPIKES CAN HANDLE THE PASS, BOBBY'S GOING DOWN ITS WALKER AND FORCE THE SOPHOMORE.

FULL-COURT ALMOST NO REBOUND BACK OUT AND TRAVELING CALL MAN.

OH MAN, WALKER AND NEIL.

BOTH LOOK GOOD.

I'M NOT GONNA LIE TO YOU.

LARRY THERE AND PRESSING ME OVER HERE WITH THEIR FOOTWORK AND THEIR SPEED YOU KNOW AT THEIR SIZE I CAN SAY.

YA ALLAH.

YA.

THEY CAN MOVE.

YEAH, WE GOT SOME GOOD FOOD WORKERS AND GOOD MOVES.

VERY SMART.

WHAT A COMMITTED AT AGAIN?

WELL, ONLY A SOPHOMORE WALKER IS WILL HAVE A LOT OF ATTENTION.

NO QUESTION.

BALL SOLD AWAY HELD ONTO IT.

THAT'S PASCAL.

14 SECONDS AGO.

AND A CHARGING CALL.

NOW, THAT'S HOW YOU STOP MOMENTUM.

THAT IS A SMART PLAY THAT HAVE BEEN MADE FOR GRIFFIN, BECAUSE ROUGH ABSOLUTELY HAD AN EASY SHOT TO THE BASKET DEFENSE.

JUST STEPPED IN SET THEIR FEET AND DREW THE CHARGE.

AND THAT'S HOW YOU GET A MOMENTUM SHIFT, BACK IN YOUR FAVOR AND MADISON ROUGH THERE ON THE CHARGE.

TRY TO GET THAT BUCKET.

THAT'S NOW HER SECOND THAT'S IMPORTANT.

FINAL SECONDS OF THE FIRST HALF NOW TURNER.

AND ANOTHER FOUL ON GRIFFIN, PLAYER CONTROL, ILLEGAL SCREEN HERE, SECOND FOUL NOW, FORCE, MIKE'S.

SO, BOTH TEAMS WITH AN OFFENSIVE FOUL ON THAT POSSESSION, PROBABLY THE LAST POSSESSION OF THE HALF 1.9 IS ENOUGH TIME TO GET SHOT UP BUT NOT LIKE THAT.

GOT A LOT OF THE BALL, THAT'S RIGHT, LITTLE BIT SLOPPY THERE AT THE END BUT OH MY GOODNESS, HOW ABOUT BALDWIN AND GRIFFIN AGAIN THE FOUL TROUBLE, PUCKETT AND HARRIS WITH THREE, FOULS, SPIKES AND THOMPSON WITH TWO FOUL.

THAT'S ONE OF THE THINGS THAT WERE JOHNSON WILL TALK ABOUT CERTAINLY AT THIS LOCK IN THIS HALFTIME LOCKER ROOM.

25:20, THE BALL WENT OFF AND YOU SEE RIGHT THERE, THE IMPACT THAT WALKER AND NEIL HAVE HAD ON THIS TEAM AS THEY TAKE THE 5 POINT LEAD INTO HALFTIME.

ALL RIGHT, LET'S GO OVER TO HANNAH GOODEN AND SEE WHAT'S HAPPENING.

ELSEWHERE HERE AT HALFTIME HANNAH.

ALL RIGHT, SO HANG OUT HERE, WE'RE GOING TO GO TO THE OTHER SIDE OF THINGS AND CATCH UP WITH MR. FLANDERS AND BALDWIN, WHAT'S IT BEEN?

LIKE WE KNOW THE PEDIGREE WITH SPORTS IN THE PAST.

BUT WHAT'S IT BEEN LIKE THIS WEEK TO COME TO A TITLE HERE?

I WAS JUST BROUGHT A LOT OF EXCITEMENT TO OUR CAMPUS TO OUR STUDENT BODY FOR YEARS.

YOU KNOW, WE HAVE GREAT BASKETBALL, BOYS AND GIRLS GIRLS WON SEVERAL CHAMPIONSHIPS.

BUT IT'S BEEN 34 YEARS SINCE WE BROUGHT HER ALL THE WAY HOME, SO WE'RE LOOKING TO BRING THAT CHAMPIONSHIP BACK AND YOU CAN JUST FEEL THE EXCITEMENT ALL OVER MILLEDGEVILLE TO CAUSE THE TEXT.

WE'VE BEEN GETTING FROM A LAWN MOWER.

THAT'S A LOT OF CALLS AND TEXTS.

YES, SIR.

WHAT IS IT MEAN WHAT DOES ATHLETICS AS A PART OF THE LARGER PICTURE MEAN ON THE FULL?

THIS IS THE SCHOOL, SOMETHING TO GALVANIZE AROUND, WE TRY TO BUILD EXCELLENCE IN EVERYTHING.

WE DO WITH OUR SCHOOL, WHETHER IT BE FINE, ARTS, ACADEMICS ATHLETICS, BUT A LOT OF PEOPLE WERE LATE TO ATHLETICS, IS SOMETHING VERY POPULAR AND SO IT BRINGS A LOT OF EXCITEMENT IN OUR VIEW, THAT IS MR. FLANDERS JASON FLANDERS, THE PRINCIPAL BALDWIN.

HI, THIS IS MR.

CHAMBERS HERBERT, CHAMBERS COMMA T DS.

SWEETHEART, PLEASE DON'T FORGET TO WEAR YOUR SEATBELT.

I GOT IT MOM IN THE BLINK OF AN EYE.

SO MANY TOMORROW'S CAN DISAPPEAR BUCKLE UP FOR YOUR FUTURE EVERY TRIP.

EVERY TIME A MESSAGE FROM THE GOVERNOR'S OFFICE OF HIGHWAY SAFETY.

TEA, WELCOME BACK TO THE HALFTIME SHOW, IT'S TIME TO BREAK DOWN THE FIRST HALF.

WITH JOHN NELSON WHO'S BEEN RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF ALL THE ACTION IN MACON.

JOHN, WHAT HAVE BEEN YOUR BIGGEST TAKEAWAYS FROM THE GAME.

SO FAR BRAVES ARE LEADING AT THE HALF 2520 BUT A LOT OF FOUL TROUBLE.

YEP, YOU'VE GOT A LOT OF FOUL TROUBLE.

YOU LOOK AT THE SITUATION, MADISON ROUGH AND JASMINE WILLIAMS FOR BALDWIN.

THEY EACH HAVE TWO TO FOUR WITH THREE FOULS FOR GRIFFIN.

GRIFFIN HAD TO GO EIGHT DEEP IN THE FIRST HALF, HARRIS AND PUCKETT WITH THREE THOMPSON AND SPIKES WITH TO.

SO THAT'S SOMETHING TO KEEP AN EYE ON AS WE GET HERE, GETTING READY FOR THE THIRD AND THE FOURTH QUARTER WITH LARRY AND TAB COMING UP IN JUST A LITTLE BIT.

DURHAM HAD 12 POINTS TO LEAD GRIFFIN BUT NOTHING LIKE BEING A COACH'S DAUGHTER.

JANAI WALKER, 9 AND 9.

FIRST HALF BIG PRESENCE FOR BALDWIN TO GIVE THEM THE LEAD HERE AS THEIR UP 5 WITH THIRD AND FOURTH QUARTER TO GO.

IT'S GOING TO BE REALLY INTERESTING WITH THESE TRENDS WILL THESE TRENDS CONTINUE, HANNAH, THAT'S WHAT WE'RE HERE FOR.

ALL RIGHT, JOHN CAN'T WAIT TO SEE WHAT HAPPENS.

THANK YOU SO MUCH, MUCH MORE BASKETBALL ACTION TO COME.

FOLLOW US ON SOCIAL MEDIA AT GPB SPORTS FOR CONSTANT UPDATES THROUGHOUT THE WEEK.

WE'RE ALSO STREAMING EACH GAME GAME LIVE ON THE GBP KNOWLEDGE CHANNEL FACEBOOK, TWITTER, TWITCH, YOUTUBE, THE GPB SPORTS WEBSITE AND THE GPB SPORTS APP.

MAKE SURE TO DOWNLOAD THAT.

THAT'S IT FOR THE HALFTIME SHOW.

WE ARE SENDING IT BACK OVER TO THE STUDIO FOR THE SECOND HALF OF THE BRAVES AND THE BEARS WITH LARRY AND TABITHA AND A THANKS SO MUCH YET.

2520 OUR HALFTIME SCORE HERE AND WE WERE TALKING DURING THE BREAK ABOUT JUST THE YOU KNOW THE THE BIG POWER PLAYERS FOR THESE BRAVES FROM BALDWIN THEY ARE OUTSTANDING NOT JUST YOU KNOW, BIG PLAYERS BIG PLAYERS WITH MOVES.

OH YEAH.

A BOTH WALKER IN NEW.

I'M NOT GONNA LIE, I AM INCREDIBLY IMPRESSED WITH THESE TWO PLAYERS BECAUSE THEY ARE BIG GIRLS THERE.

SIX FOOT SIX TO FOUR MEN.

THEY CAN REALLY MOVE ONE OF THEM DID IT EURO STEP THROUGH TRAFFIC AND TRANSITION.

SO, I'M REALLY IMPRESSED WITH HOW THEY MOVE HOW THEY REBOUND, THEY'RE GIVING BALDWIN SECOND AND THIRD OPPORTUNITIES AT THE RIM.

AND FOR GRIFFIN, THEY GOT TO FIND A WAY TO LIMIT THEIR PRODUCTION.

PUT A BODY ON THEM.

BOX HIM OUT AND LIMIT WHAT THEY CAN DO.

YEAH.

ENGINE DIED.

WALKER ACTUALLY TRIPLE-TEAMED MOST THE TIME AND STILL ALMOST A DOUBLE-DOUBLE AT HALFTIME.

LET'S TAKE A LOOK AT OUR STATS HERE.

AT THE BREAK, AS WOULD BE ENDED THE THIRD QUARTER IN JUST MOMENTS AWAY.

AS YOU CAN SEE HERE, THE SHOOTING BALDWIN 40% GRIFFIN.

32% OF THE TURNOVERS ARE BIG RIGHT HERE, BUT AGAIN, FREE THROWS.

THE ONE THING MAYBE BALDWIN DIDN'T DO WELL, TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THOSE FREE PIECE.

WELL, THEY GOT THOSE 14 PINK POINTS.

SO, THEY DID THAT.

WELL, I GUESS THEY SAID, HEY, WE CAN NOT NEED THOSE FREE THROWS BUT YEAH, THEY GOT TO START KNOCKING THOSE DOWN, GETTING TO THE LINE, TAKE YOUR TIME, KNOCKING DOWN THEIR LESS THAN 50% AND THAT AREA REBOUNDING THEIR LEADING IN THAT AREA AS WELL.

A SHOOTING BETTER THREE-POINT PERCENTAGE, NOT THERE.

BUT AGAIN, THEY DON'T REALLY NEED IT BECAUSE THEY'RE SO SUCCESSFUL AND THE PAINT AND THE POSE.

SO FOR BOWLING BRAVES, JUST KEEP BEING AGGRESSIVE AT THE RIM GRIFFIN, YOU'VE GOT TO ADJUST AND PUT A BODY ON THOSE BIG GIRLS.

LET ME ASK YOU THIS HEARING INTO THE MIND OF A FORMER COLLEGE PLAYER, YOUR COACHES MIND GRIFFIN.

STILL ONLY 25 POINTS DOWN, I MEAN YOU'VE GOT SOME FOUL TROUBLE.

WHAT DO YOU DO HERE COMING OUT OF THE SECOND HALF?

AND THAT'S THE THING THAT'S GOING TO BE SO TOUGH BECAUSE WALKER AND NEAL ARE NOT SLOWING DOWN AND THE OILS AND THE TRIPLE TEAMS AREN'T WORKING.

SO MY THING IS I WOULD GO ZONE DEFENSE.

DON'T DO ANY MAN TO MAN BECAUSE OBVIOUSLY THEY CAN LOB IT OVER YOUR HEAD AND YOU KNOW IF THEY DO THAT TO HELP SIDES GOT TO BE ABLE TO GET THERE BUT YOU GOT TO DO YOUR WORK IN THE POST EARLY.

IF YOU'RE DEFENDING NEIL OR WALKER, YOU GOT TO PUSH THEM OFF THE BLOCK.

I KNOW THAT'S HARD TO DO BECAUSE THEY'RE SO STRONG AND ATHLETIC BUT YOU CAN'T MAKE IT EASY FOR THEM TO GET POSITIONED ON THE BLOCK AND JUST CATCH THE BALL AND MAKE THEIR MOVES.

BECAUSE ONCE THEY GET ONE OR TWO FEET IN THE PAINT, THE RAP COACH KIZZY WALKER.

THERE, YOU CAN SEE HER TALKING TO HER PLAYERS ARE AT THE END.

SHE'S A MILLEDGEVILLE NATE.

HE WENT TO THIS HIGH SCHOOL.

THEY NEVER EVER WON THE REGION BACK THEN.

BUT HERE SHE IS A NOW, 60 MINUTES AWAY FROM WINNING THE STATE TALKS ABOUT THESE YOUNG SOPHOMORE.

PLAYERS HAVE BEEN PLAYING TOGETHER SINCE GRADE SCHOOL ACTUALLY BUT AGAIN FOUL SITUATION GRIFFIN WAS 12 AND THE FIRST HALF BALDWIN WITH SIX AND OF THOSE 12 FOULS FOR THE BEARS TO PLAYERS HAVE 32 OTHERS HAVE TO.

SO WE'LL BE WATCHING DOWN HERE.

AND HOPEFULLY, THEY CAN STAY OUT OF FOUL TROUBLE.

AS THEY TRY TO COME BACK IN THIS, FIVE-POINT DEFICIT HERE AT HALFTIME, BUT WAS JUST DOING A GOOD JOB OF FOLLOWING THE SCOUT AS WELL, YOU KNOW?

LIKE COACH WALKER TOLD US.

THAT'S HOW THEY WON AT THEIR PLACE.

THEY GOT THEM IN FOUL TROUBLE, AND SHE'S JUST FOLLOWING THE SCOUT REALLY BASKET.

NO GOOD.

THEY'RE HOESLEY NOW, PUSHING THE OTHER RAN AND DRAW THEM, KNOCKS IT OFF HER LEG OUT OF BOUNDS, AND IT GOES BACK OVER TO THE BRAVES OF BALDWIN MENTAL LAPSE.

THEREFORE, DURING HAM, DRIBBLED OFF HER FOOT, BUT HOW DO YOU GET IT BACK.

IF YOUR OFFENSE, ISN'T THERE?

YOU FIND RHYTHM ON THE DEFENSIVE END AND YOU GET IT BACK.

GET A STOP, BRING IT BACK DOWN ON THE OFFENSIVE END.

SO I GET INSIDE THE WALKER, BEEN AGAIN, WHITE SHIRTS, EVERYWHERE.

THAT'S WHAT IT CERTAINLY TRYING TO GET INSIDE TO HER, EVERY CHANCE THEY CAN.

BUT THAT WAS A GOOD JOB BY HOESLEY.

SHE THE PAST ALMOST GOT TO HER, BUT WHO CAME FOR HELP SIDE DEFENSE, HOESLEY WAS THEIR GREAT TAKEAWAY.

OH, AND THEN SHE LOSES IT OUT OF BOUNDS DURING HIM AGAIN.

IT'S BEEN SO ACTIVE ON BOTH ENDS OF THE COURT.

GREAT JOB WITH THE STEEL, BUT THEN GIVES IT RIGHT BACK.

SHE'S GOT A MENTALLY GET HERSELF OUT OF THE FUNK, YOU CAN KIND OF SEE IT ON HER FACE.

HOPEFULLY SHE HAS A SHORT-TERM MEMORY GETS BACK ON DEFENSE AND CAN KIND OF GET A RHYTHM BACK, INSIDE THE WALKER AGAIN TRIPLE-TEAMED AND SHE'S FOULED, AND LET'S WATCH AND SEE WHO THAT FOUL IS ON.

20 IS PLEADING OUR CASE.

HERE'S A TSI THOMPSON AND THAT'S HER THIRD.

SO OKAY.

SO THAT'S THREE POST PLAYERS.

NOW WITH THREE FOULS APIECE FOR GRIFFIN, AND UP, AND ROLLS HOUSEHOLDS, CASSIDY NEAL WITH THE SOFTEST OF TOUCH, AND WHO WAS THERE TO CLEAN UP THE REBOUND, WHO ELSE.

BUT WALKING, RIGHT, WE WHITE JERSEYS WALKER, JUST WAITS AND TIMES IT GRABS THE REBOUND AND PUTS IT BACK IN.

NOW THEY'RE ON MADISON ROUGH.

IT APPEARS I LIKE WHAT I'M SEEING FOR DURING HEAD, THOUGH, ON THAT POSSESSION, SHE TOOK THE BALL INTO THE PAINT KNOWS THAT YOU HAVE TO BE AGGRESSIVE TO BE ABLE TO GET YOURSELF AT LEAST THE MOMENTUM BACK IN YOUR FAVOR.

BECAUSE LIKE YOU SAID, IT'S JUST A SEVEN-POINT GAME EVEN THOUGH IT SEEMS LIKE BALDWIN HAS A BIG RELIEF IN THAT 3,000 OUT FOR MADISON RALPH.

LOOK WHO HAS THE REBOUND I BELIEVE THAT'S HER TENT.

SO SHE'S GOT A DOUBLE-DOUBLE AT LAST BASKET.

PUT HER INTO DOUBLE FIGURES AT 11 POINTS.

HOT POTATO BALL, FILING WINDS UP IN THE HANDS OF NEIL AND SHE GET THAT GET THAT TO GO AND HERE COMES GRIFFIN.

NICE DISH INSIDE FOR DURHAM.

GREAT MINDS THINK ALIKE.

TABITHA SOREN HAVE HAD THE EURO STEP.

SHE COULD HAVE EASILY LAID THAT IN AND HAD A HIGH PERCENTAGE SHOT.

I WOULD HAVE SAID ANYTHING IF SHE DIDN'T PAST THAT BUT SHE WENT AND MADE THE MORE UNSELFISH PLAY AND IN THE TURN SHE GOT HER TEAMMATE INVOLVED.

NOW IT'S JUST FIVE POINT GAME DURING A GAME HIGH 14 POINTS.

SHE HAS KEPT GRIFFIN IN THIS 14 OF THEIR 22 POINTS IN THE GAME, BACK WITHIN FIVE WALKER WITH THE TURNAROUND, MAKES IT LOOK EASY, SHE HAS 13 POINTS.

NOW AGAIN, WALKER HESITATED FOR JUST A SLIGHT, SECOND LOOKED OVER HER LEFT SHOULDER.

REALIZE, THE DEFENSE WASN'T THERE AT LEAST THE DOUBLE TEAM WASN'T.

AND SAID, I CAN GO ONE-ON-ONE JUST TURNED AROUND AND SHOT IT.

WELL AND THAT'S WHY YOU'D HAVE TO DOUBLE TRIPLE TIMUR.

IF YOU LEAVE HER OPEN, SHE'S GOT THE FOOTWORK, SHE GET PAST ALMOST ANYBODY BUT YOU KNOW, THAT'S MORE OF A JUMP SHOT.

ALSO, I'D RATHER HER TAKE THAT 14 TO 15 FEET VERSUS TWO OR THREE FEET AWAY FROM THE BASKET WHERE SHE CAN ALSO GRAB HER OWN REBOUND.

IF IT GOES OUT FOUL IS CALLED ON WILLIAMS, THAT'S HER THIRD.

SO SHE COMES OUT OF THE GAME AND PASCAL COMES BACK IN.
