Corbin 48, South Laurel 35: Miranda Wilson scored a game high 26 points as the Corbin Lady Redhounds ran past district rival South Laurel 48-35 in the consolation game of the Berea Holiday Classic. It was the second time the Lady ‘Hounds have beaten South Laurel this month. Corbin took a 59-52 district win last week at Gilliam Gym.

It was all Corbin Saturday as the Lady Redhounds took a 11-6 lead at the end of the first quarter then stretched the lead to 21-8 at the half. South Laurel rallied to outscore Corbin in the third quarter, 14-10 and pulled within 31-22. But, the Lady Redhounds never looked back in winning the fourth quarter, 17-13.

Madison Central 40, Corbin 37: The Lady Redhounds took the defending Berea Holiday Classic Tournament champions to the wire before falling by three points.

Madison Central led by star Ashton Feldhaus jumped out to a 14-8 lead in the first quarter, but Corbin was able to outscore the Lady Indians, 11-9 in the second frame and trailed 23-19 at the half.

Corbin fought back in the third quarter and took their first lead of the game 29-28. Madison Central got back-to-back baskets from Feldhaus and Larryn Brooks to send the Lady Indians back in front, 32-29. But, a three-pointer by Miranda Wilson sent the teams to the fourth quarter tied at 32.

Quick baskets by Shadae Bosley and Feldhuas pushed the Central lead to four (36-32) and the defense took over for the Lady Indians. Corbin could only muster five points in the final eight minutes. Kayla Wilson led the Lady Redhounds with 13 points.

Corbin 56, Garrard Co. 45: Corbin led the Lady Lions from start to finish in the second-round of the tournament. The Lady ‘Hounds led by a mere point at the close of the first quarter, 12-11, but extended the lead to 28-21 at the half. Miranda Wilson topped the Corbin scoring with 18 points.

Corbin 69, Estill Co. 33: Corbin started the tournament with some much needed defense and caused the Lady Engineeers to turn the ball over. The turnovers resulted in easy points for the Lady Redhounds, who took a 19-11 lead in the first quarter and ran out to a 41-19 lead at the half. “It was a great effort by the team,” Parsons said.

Miranda Wilson led the Lady Redhounds with 14 points in the game while 10 players got in the scorebook for Parsons’ team.

Corbin (7-5) will head to Orlando, FL, after Christmas to play in the KSA Tournament.
