2. The Georgia High School Association (GHSA), the state's high school governing body, overwhelmingly rejected the controversial 4/8 plan that would have crowned eight state champions in each sport.

Georgia high schools will crown six state champions in each sport next year as the state moves from a Class AAAAA to Class AAAAAA system.

By a vote of 26-24, the GHSA Executive Committee Tuesday approved the six classification system proposed by former Brookwood High School Athletic Director Dave Hunter.

3. How are you handling the heat wave? The National Weather Service reports highs in the upper 80's and low's in the mid 60's for the next couple of days. The National Weather Service has a code orange Air Quality Alert due to the poor air quality and ozone. Code orange means that people sensitive to the ozone, such as the elderly, children and people with heart or lung conditions, need to avoid long exposure outdoors.

The near 90 degree temperatures have my dog Shelby napping afternoons against the toilet bowl. How does your family cool off?
