The Jackets were in complete command as Wayne Hamilton played a fine game on the boards and took away scoring honors in a game which was remarkably free of rough play.
Leesburg will meet Ocala Vanguard tonight at 9 p.m. while the finalist in the other bracket will probably be determined between Starke and Gainesville Buchholz.
