The Banks County Leopards (1-9) were set to travel and face off against Callaway in the first round of the 2A playoffs, but head coach Jay Reid and his team made the call Tuesday night to pull the plug.
Reid told AJC contributor Adam Krohn on Tuesday evening that he has COVID-19 symptoms and is awaiting test results and that nine of his players are in quarantine.
GHSA determined that any COVID cancellations in the playoffs did count as a loss, so Banks County ends the season at 1-10. Callaway, ranked No. 8, will advance to play the winner of the Lovett-Pepperell game.
