Sharks and Eagles Battle at the 2025 AAASP/GHSA Varsity Wheelchair Basketball Championship!

The REMATCH in Macon did not disappoint!

Clayton County Eagles and Houston County Sharks battled all game, but the Sharks pull out the win for the title – 37–34.

The Sharks overcame a 12-point third-period deficit to win their fourth straight championship and their 12th title in the last 13 seasons.

The young Clayton team, which featured seven first-year players, raced to an 18–8 lead and were up 24–16 at halftime. The Sharks came back from the break and scored 12 unanswered points, with the tying basket coming from Dalton Crosby and the go-ahead bucket from Laila Kindness.

Anthony Cuti, one of seven players who returned from the 2024 championship team, scored 15 points to lead Houston County.^*

Clayton was led by Andrew Dotson with 10 points and Anquan Smith with 8 points.

Thank you to all of the athletes, coaches, and volunteers for the efforts yesterday, and especially the fans, partners and friends who showed up to root the teams on!

A special shout out to former GHSA Executive Director, Dr. Ralph Swearngin for his call on the GPB Sports Broadcast, as well as to the GPB Sports Staff, Score Atlanta, and current GHSA Executive Director, Dr. Tim Scott, for his help with presenting the trophies and his continued support of the athletes!
