Cartersville (2-0) is leading host Peachtree City National (2-0) by a 2-1 score in a game that was suspended Friday night.

The Cartersville/Peachtree City winner will advance to the state championship round Monday. The loser must play an elimination game against Dudley Little League for a chance to reach Monday’s finals.

Cartersville scored twice in the first inning Friday night to take a 2-1 lead, but the game was haulted in the fourth inning.

Cartersville and Peachtree City National are the only remaining unbeaten teams in the double-elimination tournament. Cartersville has state tournament wins over Dudley and Athens. Peachtree City National defeated Toccoa and Northern (Columbus).
