COBB COUNTY, Ga. — The 10U Georgia Peaches, an all-female travel baseball team based in Johns Creek, competed in the Cobb County Sunday Series tournament on Sept. 18 in Powder Springs. After finishing 2-0 in pool play, they went on to defeat the Smyrna Slammers Prospects, 8-7, in the championship game. 

This is the first known instance of an all-female baseball team entering and winning an otherwise all- boys travel baseball tournament in Georgia.
