Swainsboro's James Stowbridge, bottom right, dives at midcourt as Statesboro's Zaquavian Smith (11) picks up a steal for an easy score in the first quarter on Friday in Statesboro.
The Statesboro boys brought a three-game losing streak to a screeching halt, notching a 66-48 victory Saturday night at the Devil’s Den over the Swainsboro Tigers team that started the Blue Devils’ slide two weeks ago. O’Aaron Ware led Statesboro (5-3) with 17 points, Zaquavian Smith added 14 more, and a total of five Blue Devils scored at least seven points. “It’s definitely good to get a win after the last few games,” SHS coach Lee Hill said.
