The Lady Panthers traveled to Landmark Christian Thursday and lost two matches against top-10 opponents: No. 9 Riverwood (25-20, 25-23) and No. 3 Landmark (25-21, 25-19). Starr’s Mill is now 22-7 overall on the season.

McIntosh: An undefeated week for the Lady Chiefs, now ranked fifth in the state, included a pair of home matches Sept. 23, as they beat Newnan and Riverdale in successive three-game sweeps. Saturday was a busy day with three matches at Parkview, and the Lady Chiefs won in two straight over MLK, Parkview and South Gwinnett.
