With winter weather impacting high school sports schedules this weekend, the Georgia High School Association has released a statement regarding makeup dates and rescheduling. Bartow County and Cartersville City school systems have cancelled all extra curricular activities for this weekend. Inclimate weather has created a number of rescheduling concerns, particularly for the sport of basketball. The GHSA office therefore is making the following announcements concerning this issue: 1. All "region/Area" contests must be completed on time. There will be NO extension of region play past the published deadline. 2. Schools may reschedule as many contests as they wish on school days that have a starting time of earlier than 6:00 p.m. 3. Schools may reverse the order of play (girl/boy or boy/girl) on school days in which the starting time is 6:00 p.m., or later. 4. The GHSA is waiving the 100-mile travel rule on nights before school days for the remainder of this season. 5. Region/Area tournaments are "post-season" events and thus MAY be played during the school day. 6. Any other scheduling issues must be cleared through basketball coordinator Ernie Yarbrough at the GHSA office.

The basketball regular season ended Thursday night for schools in the Bartow-Gordon Middle School Athletic Association, but there is still some undecided business before the four championship tournaments begin Saturday in Calhoun. Despite a fourteen game schedule for the varsity teams and a twelve game schedule for the junior varsity teams, there are a few ties for seeding to be settled with coin tosses Friday morning. In fact, one-half of the girls tournament bracket will be settled by a coin toss. Calhoun and Ashworth will toss a coin to decide the number two seed, while Adairsville and Woodland tied for the number six spot. In the boys' tournament, all the seeds are set except for the sixth and seventh spots. Woodland and South Central will toss a coin to settle that tie Friday morning. Final scores from the full slate of regular season games Thursday night are listed below along with the tournament schedules, seeding, and season records.
