Class 5A rivals Moody and Leeds saw their seasons come to an end at Lagoon Park. The Blue Devils rebounded from a first-round loss to Sardis with three straight loser’s bracket wins, but ultimately came up one win shy of a state tournament berth.
The Greenwave made an early exit after losing their first two games on Wednesday.
