Scores: Weekend Hoops, Swimmming, Wrestling

Here's the varsity sports schedule for Dec. 16 and 17 for Cobb. Cherokee, Douglas, Bartow and Paulding counties.

A matchup of two of the top three boys basketball teams in AAAAA highlights the high school sports schedule this weekend. Depending on whether you favor the Georgia Prep Country/Georgia Athletic Coaches Association poll or the Score Atlanta standings, Wheeler and Shiloh are either Nos. 1 and 2 or 2 and 3 in AAAAA right now. We'll see which team is more deserving of the high ranking and is a stronger threat to the other team in the top three, Milton, when they play at Wheeler at 6 p.m. Saturday. Holiday basketball also gets underway this weekend with the three-day Longhorn Shootout at Kell, including Kennesaw Mountain, Lassiter, Woodstock, Dunwoody, North Atlanta and Mundy's Mill.

Creekview, Sequoyah See New Region

The Grizzlies and Chiefs are grouped with schools in Cobb, Forsyth and north Fulton counties.

Sequoyah and Creekview will be together in the 11-team Region 7-AAAAA the next two years under the realignment setup the Georgia High School Association announced Tuesday.

Either way, neighboring Creekview and Sequoyah will see a lot of each other in the second-highest GHSA class. …
