Loaded with seasoned talent and a unbeaten record to boot, the Flowery Branch girls basketball team has plenty of statements to make this season. And like it has been all season, the Lady Falcons’ statement was made clear again when they opened the 53rd Lanierland Tournament with a 58-30 win over first-round host Gainesville on Saturday. The win continues a stellar start to the year for Flowery Branch (9-0), which looks to be a favorite to win the annual Hall County tournament after winning eight of its nine games by a double-digit margin.
