Lady Pirates Fall to Nemesis Macon East

By Brian Hamilton, Sports Correspondent

The Pickens Academy Lady Pirates fell to their nemesis Macon-East Academy in the final, winner-take-all, contest in the AISA Class 2A state championships in Montgomery last weekend. PA started strong with a 5-1 win over Lowndes on Friday, but was then sent to the consolation bracket after falling to Macon-East 4-3 on Friday evening. The Lady Pirates would bounce back that evening, however, with a 4-0 win over Wilcox Academy.
