Bulldogs remain winless on season (High School Sports ~ 12/05/19)
The Cornersville Bulldogs squared off against their longtime rival Richland Raiders at the Dwight Clark Gymnasium on Tuesday night. The Raiders took advantage of poor shooting and shoddy ball handling by Cornersville and scored a lopsided 75-22 victory over the winless Bulldogs. “It’s a long season and we’ll have a film session tomorrow and see if we can find some players who will battle,” Cornersville coach Peyton Newton said. “We didn’t respond well at the start of the game, so we will have to address that.” “We’ll see them (Richland) again in the Christmas Tournament at their place.” Richland controlled the opening tip and Raider Trey Luna scored the first two points of his 20-point effort for the night to put the Richland up 2-0. -

Champions’ second half surge sinks Rockets (High School Sports ~ 12/05/19)
Forrest and Cascade met on opening night at Chapel Hill with the Champions coming from behind late to secure a four-point win and the two squads met again Tuesday night at Wartrace. The result was another excruciating loss for Forrest as the Rockets had the lead again in the third quarter, only to see it slip away in a 72-62 setback. “We are so close, we are just itching the surface, but in my opinion we just can’t keep making silly mistakes at crucial times,” Forrest coach Corey Bishop said. “These guys are going to have to be able to come together and fix those mistakes and we are going to work as hard as ever to get that done.” -
