Parkers Chapel makes it back after a 6 year wait looking to knock off the defending State Champions in Spring Hill. Parkers Chapel is a balanced team that has the season edge in 3 matchups with Spring Hill beating them two out of three this season. This should be a great battle for the 2A State Title.

Spring Hill looks to repeat as State Champion as they make it back to Baum for the second time in two years. Their first trip resulted in a championship title so don't be surprised if Spring hill uses their experience from last year to catapult them in the final game.
