adopted purple Wrote:I guess you remember Lone Jack. They always had a good basketball team. We played Boston Elementary too. Woodbine was a great rival for us. You guys were the big city boys to us because you lived so close to Corbin. My brother went to Poplar Creek when it was a high school. We lived 5 miles from the school and would have to walk home sometimes after practice because our daddy worked in a coal mine and didn't care too much for sports. I think he went to one of my ballgames. I couldn't play high school sports in high school because Whitley County was 26 miles from home and I couldn't get a ride home all the time. That's why I'm in Bowling Green. I made an oath that my kids could play any sport they wanted. I went to WKU and never left Bowling Green. It's a great place to raise a family.
Yup i sure do. Lone Jack has been around for a long time.
At woodbine, we usually came up with more players than most of the other county schools we had but man there were some rough games way back when.
There were many times before consolidation that Whitley had 2 or 3 teams that were really good almost every year.
Anybody that has been up 92E and lived around the gatliff or poplar creek area knows how far away from everything you are and without the activity buses the high school runs now, many kids simply wouldnt be able to play sports at Whitley.
I know some of the buses up there pick up kids are 6 o clock in order to get them to school before 8 o clock. Some even go to Bell Co. since its right on the line.
I dont blame you for providing yourself and your family a better life. A lot has changed around here, but a lot still remains the same
