EVANS — Losing a game in the state championship series doesn’t appear to have dampened the spirit of Gainesville’s baseball program. Gainesville was stellar in the opener, behind a complete-game effort by junior Jonathan Gettys, winning 6-2. However, top-ranked Greenbrier (29-4) caught up in the second game, behind a complete-game showing by Georgia signee Adam Sasser, winning 7-3.
