Despite being spring break for several school systems around northeast Georgia, some crucial series will get under way in several regions that could decide who continues to be in the hunt for the postseason, which begins in two week.

Regions 8-3A and 6-3A, in particular, will stage at least two series that could decide the region champion. North Hall and White County will open a pair of Region 6-3A three-game series at home on Tuesday. Elbert County and Banks County will conduct a series in Region 8-A D1 that also could decide the region champion.

The key series in Region 8-3A has Oconee County playing Monroe Area in a three-game series.
