Notes:

Other notes: Bracket incomplete as semifinals pairings are unknown.

BTI was listed as such in the Waycross Journal-Herald. Its true identity is unknown, though it could possibly be Bozeman (Hawkinsville). Though Bozeman was named for J.L. Bozeman, there is a picture of graduates of that school posing before an auditorium curtain with the initials "BTI."

* Neither Speight nor Seminole County Training appeared for their games. The 2-0 scores are what was awarded for the forfeit.
** The Blackshear Times listed a 62-46 score instead of the 62-48 in the Waycross Journal-Herald.
*** The Blackshear Times listed a 53-42 score instead of the 64-53 in the Waycross Journal-Herald.
**** The Macon County Citizen and Montezuma Georgian agreed it was an overtime game, but contend the score was 66-64, not the 66-63 listed in the Waycross Journal-Herald.
