The Tournament
Teams: 16
How determined:

Champion: Cherokee
School Title: 6th
Final Record:
Coach: Ron Ely
Notes:
Waycross head coach E.B. Price, on why most of the tournament was at South Georgia College: "South Georgia teams have been dominating the AAA tournament and everyone got tired of having to go to the coliseum in Atlanta to play, so the tourney moved south this year." (Waycross Journal-Herald, March 1, 1976)
