The Macon Giants of Macon Georgia defeated the Athens Pirates, The Tennessee Sticks and the Ty Cobb Reds to win the 2011 Great South League Championship… ” Our bats came alive during the playoffs.” Coach Jay Cranford says.. ” It was not by accident that we won. Our players worked very hard the prepare for this and our pitching was lights out.. Christopher Cravotta, Joey Kamfer and Ryan Lummus are some the best outfielders in the college game today. Joe Scott is also on top of my list when it comes to college catchers….Our infielders including Drew Dunbar, Steve Taylor, Josh Lavender, Cortny Brown, Jordon Randell and Matthew Powell all stepped up when it meant the most.. The pitching staff including Wesley Allen, Wilson Taylor, Brent Sapp, Steve Farris and Matthew Powell got us to the final Game. Nick Mazaris was throwing in the low 90′s to shut down the Pirates on Thurs.which was HUGE !!! Joe Scott started with Steve Taylor catching and Derek Sylve (closer) put us in the winners column on Friday for the final game… Good lineups, no missed signs, minimum errors, allot of hustle, stealing bases and great attitudes are what won this Championship “, says Cranford

Congrats Boys !! Coach Jay Cranford
