Chestatee allowed five quick points by Pickens’ Haley Kalson in the final minute of the first half Thursday to open the postseason in Gainesville. It didn’t appear to be too much to overcome at the time, trailing by only three at intermission. However, the Lady War Eagles (16-13) continued to struggle shooting the ball in the second half, missed too many free throws and were outrebounded to lose 42-37 to open the Class AAAA state tournament.
