It was a big week for the Corbin High School soccer program after a total of four players – two Redhounds and two Lady Hounds – signed to continue their athletic careers in college.

A press release sent out by Whitley County Schools Friday afternoon said the following:

After a history-making 8-3 victory over the visiting Hazard Bulldogs Thursday evening, the Williamsburg Yellow Jackets baseball team is state bound in 2019!

The following is a recap of the action involving coverage area high school baseball and softball teams on Tuesday night, April 16.

50th District baseball competition got underway Tuesday and Wednesday with Corbin taking on the South Laurel Cardinals while crosstown rivals Whitley County and Williamsburg faced off against each other.

It took a few extra innings to get the job done Thursday, but in the end the Williamsburg Yellow Jackets were able to defeat the Barbourville Tigers to win their second straight 13th Region All “A” championship title.

After just one season at the helm of Whitley County High School’s girls varsity basketball program, David Halcomb made the difficult decision to step down Thursday afternoon.

After a hard-fought win over Lynn Camp in the semifinal round of this year’s 13th Region All “A” Classic, the Williamsburg Yellow Jackets will seek back-to-back championship titles Thursday against Barbourville.

With the conclusion of the recent 13th Region championship tournaments at the Corbin Arena, the 2018-19 high school basketball season has officially ended for all of the News Journal’s coverage area teams.
