Banks, Fayette County advance to state final

UConn signee Brianna Banks had seven of her 11 points in the third quarter as Fayette County HS of Fayetteville, Ga. defeated Chattahoochee 52-39 in the semifinals of Georgia's Class AAAA semifinal on Wednesday.

The win moves Fayette County into Friday's championship game against Forest Park.

Banks, a 5-foot-9 guard, came into the game averaging 16 points (while shooting 59 percent from the floor and 46 percent from 3-point range), 5.5 rebounds, 6.1 assists and 5.2 steals per game.

The game, which starts at 3 p.m., will be streamed live at http://www.ghsa.tv and http://www.grb.org/sports.

The semifinal was also streamed live and can be viewed on ghsa tv

Highly-touted sophomore Diamond DeShields, who is on UConn's recruiting radar, will be playing for Norcross in Thursday's 4 p.m. AAAAA semifinal against Campbell and that game will also be available at the sites I mentioned above as will the AAAAA final, which is on Friday at 7 p.m.
