The Georgia High School Association has scheduled some of its baseball championship series for Truist Park next week, and there’s going to be a Cobb County presence with Lassiter High School.
The Trojans (32-6) will meet Houston County in a best-of-three doubleheader for the Class 6A title starting at 5 p.m. on Wednesday, followed by Game 2 of that series the same night.
Should the series go to a decisive third game, it would take place on Thursday at 12 p.m.
Lassiter defeated East Cobb rival Pope in the semifinals this week to reach the state title series for the first time in 11 years.
Lassiter won state titles in 1999 and 2006.
Tickets are $15 and will be available for purchase online at https://gofan.co/app/school/
