All summer the diamond girls have been getting ready for the 2019 season. BLITZ Sports just released its initial Power Rankings of high school softball teams in the area. Banks County comes in at #1 while Habersham Central ranks ninth on the list, primarly due to the loss of head coach Stephanie Thomas and standouts Paige Cook and Adelaide Askew.
The game rolls on, but Habersham has a lot to overcome. Even with those aforementioned pieces in place, it was a difficult 10-14 season last year that resulted in no playoffs.
Keep an eye on returning impact players Kilee Thomas and Brayden Staton.
