Notes:

Other notes: Team listings may or may not be full. It is certainly possible that only a few B-sized girls teams agreed to make such a trip for a state championship and league in its infancy.

* The Savannah Morning News printed that Woodville had lost to the Brooks boys, 50-32 and to the Brooks boys, 28-11. The former likely belongs to the Union Baptist Institute-Woodville boys semifinal, with the latter likely being correct for this game.

** Though a Savannah-based school playing in a Savannah-based tournament, the Morning News reported that Woodville lost the consolation by default.
