In a potential precursor to the Region 7-AAA championship game, the Buford girls’ basketball team showed the rest of the region what to expect in next week’s region tournament. The Lady Wolves used a dominant defensive effort and forced 23 turnovers to blow past the currently second-seeded North Hall Lady Trojans 56-29 on Friday night in Gainesville. With the win, Buford (23-2, 14-0) clinched an undefeated region record, but coach Gene Durden knows none of the wins mean anything unless the Lady Wolves show up to play in the region tournament.
