The Bulldogs traveled to Lynnville for the Richland Christmas Tournament still looking for its first win of the season against a talented Unionville squad. The Bulldogs would go on to lose the contest by a score of 72-47, but the Cornersville faithful can find solace knowing that the young team has not thrown in the towel on the season and is improving game by game.

Although they showed some fight early on, the Cornersville Bulldogs are still searching for their first win of the season after dropping a 70-46 decision to the Zion Christian Academy Eagles (6-4) at home on Tuesday night. The Bulldogs (0-7) got off to a promising start and led by as many as eight points in the first quarter before taking a 20-18 advantage into the second period.

Page (6-5) handed the Forrest Rockets their 10th straight loss on Monday afternoon when the Patriots defeated FHS 77-58 at the Eagleville Christmas Classic. Forrest (1-12) hung tough for much of the first half and trailed by only three points midway through the second quarter, but Page used a run late in the stanza to open up a 45-35 lead at the break before outscoring the Rockets 32-23 over the final two periods to take home the 19-point victory.

The Cornersville Lady Bulldogs came into the Richland Christmas Tournament riding a two game winning streak after starting the year 1-7 and losing several games on the final possession. The Lady Bulldogs took on a red-hot Frank Hughes (8-2) team Monday night and despite eventually falling 57-51, Cornersville once again proved that if it can put together a complete game the Bulldogs (3-7) can play with anyone in 1A.
