In a game that went to the wire, the Tigers shook off a first-quarter deficit to complete a come-from-behind victory over Franklin County Feb. 27 and will advance to the Final Four of the GHSA state tournament this weekend. Dawson County looked nervous in the opening quarter and the Lions were quick to take advantage of the situation as they ran up a 22-10 lead to start the game. The Tiger offense settled into its rotation in the second period, doing a good job of finding the open man, and the team cut the lead in half over the quarter to enter the locker room trailing by 6.
