? GAINESVILLE STAYS PERFECT
The Gainesville Red Elephants continued their dominant season, defeating the Johns Creek Gladiators 58–46 to capture their second straight Region 7-5A championship at Chattahoochee High School.
Senior Brandon Nelson led the way with 23 points, including a huge 13-point second quarter off the bench that helped Gainesville flip a 19-16 deficit into a 34-22 halftime lead.
The Class 5A No. 1-ranked Red Elephants improved to 27-0 and locked up the No. 1 seed in the GHSA state basketball tournament.
Gainesville’s defense played a major role in the win.
• Six total blocks anchored the paint
• Charlie Gersmehl – 3 blocks
• Kevin Curtis – 3 blocks
A relentless full-court press and defensive pressure kept Johns Creek out of rhythm throughout the night as Gainesville pulled away to secure another region title.
With the regular season complete and momentum building, the Red Elephants now turn their attention to a state championship run in the GHSA playoffs.
