Heading into Tuesday’s first round matchup against Rutland at Womack Field, no player on the Statesboro girls’ roster had ever experienced a victory in the state playoffs. With that item checked off of the bucket list, it’s now just a matter of how far the Lady Blue Devils can go. Statesboro gained the competitive edge early and controlled play throughout the game as it notched a 3-0 win to advance in the Class AAAA state tournament.
