Glenn Hills sweeps its games in the state quarterfinals on Saturday.

Today just might be the greatest day in Glenn Hills basketball history.

Its girls program rolled to an easy 48-36 win in the Class AAA semifinals and its boys team followed that up with a 56-44 win against Washington County.

Both teams move on to the Class AAA semifinals next Friday at The Macon Coliseum. The Lady Spartans (22-8) take the court at 4 p.m. to face Carrollton (28-2) to kick off the Class AAA girls action. The Spartans (27-2) will then take on Hart County (23-5) at 5:30 p.m. for the right to play in the Class AAA finals on Saturday.

How's this for irony? The last time the boys team made the state semifinals was 1986. Hart County was the opponent then, too. The Bulldogs knocked Glenn Hills out 60-59 on their way to winning the Class AAA state title.

We're in the third quarter of the other area matchup of interest at Columbus State University and the news is not good for Hephzibah fans.

Unbeaten Kendrick holds a 47-39 lead over the Lady Rebels with 1:18 left to play in the third quarter.

8:30 PM UPDATE: Kendrick 65, Hephzibah 57 with 2:25 left to play.

8:51 PM UPDATE: Kendrick 73, Hephzibah 65. Final.  The Lady Rebels wrap their season with a 27-3 record and a spot in the Class AAA Elite Eight.

There are only two Augusta area teams left in the GHSA tournament. Both teams play at Glenn Hills. That's a pretty impressive feat for a school around this time of year.
