Southern Fulton was led by Gabe Stotler 13 points, and 10 rebounds. Justin Morris added 7 points, 3 rebounds, and 3 assists. Dylan Melton added 9 points. Coach Jeremy Hann commented, “We played them tough in the first half. They hit 2 three pointers in the 3rd and we were a little flat. In this kind of game, that may as well have been 15 points. We just never seemed to recover.” Shanksville was led by Matt Addleman with 18 points and 5 rebounds. Dawson Snyder added 14 points, 7 rebounds, and 5 steals.
