* The Atlanta Daily World gave a 60-42 score for Cherokee County Training-Atkinson County Training. In the Atkinson County Citizen and Pearson Tribune, the score was listed as 60-44.

The March 3, 1960, Calhoun Times said, "In the state semifinals, Stephens had defeated Soperton and Cornelia." This is probably a reference to the regional portions of state that were held at northern and southern locations.

Cornelia (school being Cornelia Regional), barring any misinterpretations of city name by the Calhoun Times, seems logical as an opponent. Soperton (Treutlen County Training) is less assured.
