BUFORD — Samantha Thomas and Tessa Daniels have identical expectations for the Buford softball program in the upcoming state championship rounds, even though they have very different experiences playing in Columbus. Either way, both played a pivotal role for Class AAAA’s top-ranked Lady Wolves (33-1) in Wednesday’s second-round sweep of St. Pius X, 11-0 and 12-0, as they seek their eighth straight state championship. Making its 10th straight appearance in the championship rounds, Buford is still alive as one of the eight teams competing for the state title.
