Despite a season with more downs than ups, the Statesboro Blue Devils had a chance to sew up a spot in the state playoffs with a win Thursday against New Hampstead. The Blue Devils were hosting the Phoenix in a doubleheader and a single win would clinch a spot in the state. Statesboro not only won the first, but swept them both, winning 7-0 in game one and 7-2 in the nitecap, locking up the fourth seed out of its region in the state playoffs.
