Any other gym and Ashland would have destroyed Corbin not a doubt in my mind. 

Harlan is 15+ points better than Corbin in any other gym.

Here we go again with that crap!!!

I was there.  Corbin started slow. Shot slightly less than 20% in the first half. Hounds staged an impressive second half comeback. From the start of the second half until two minutes left in the game, Corbin outscored HC  33-16 . Corbin took the lead 50-48 with 1:59 left. HC called TO. Out of the timeout, Noah took over. He split two Corbin defenders in the lane for an "and one," giving the Bears a 51-50 lead with about a minute and a half remaining. Corbin tied the game on a FT. Then back to back buckets for the Bears, the latter being a breakaway dunk by Noah. Pietrowski's 2 FT's cut it back to two but Noah made the plays down the stretch. Corbin had a layoff roll off the rim and an open three just must within the last two minutes that would have kept this one in doubt until the final horn had they fallen. Good game. Great atmosphere. Harlan County is top team in this region and are the definite favorite but Corbin and South Laurel have enough to beat them on a neutral floor in March.

Corbin showed over the weekend that they can compete against really good basketball teams, taking HC to the wire and beating Ashland Blazer.

They were in both games at home and at home only.  

Rewatch the game on the rag tag streaming service and you’ll understand why they beat Ashland.  Tomcats win by 15+ too.  Any other gym in the state it is a wrap!

Agree 100% Any other gym and Ashland would have destroyed Corbin not a doubt in my mind.

Ridiculous. Another 16th region sad sack. 

You sad sacks , tell me something. Does Corbin's AD go down to one of the bars downtown or over to Tim Short Auto Mall and select the referees? Of course not. These are unbiased representatives of the KHSAA. Why in the hell would these officials favor Corbin over Ashland or Harlan Co. or anybody else. Corbin lost by double digits to two out-of-state teams in the CFIT. Corbin, honestly, should have beaten both teams. Where were these crooked refs that you sad sacks are talking about when the Redhounds get beaten at home ? It's when your team fails to come out with a win that you complain. No one on here has seen more basketball games at Gilliam Gym than Old School. You think you know more than I do?

Yes Mr. Sad Sack.  Yes I do!  Let me highlight my previous post.  Harlan and Ashland win by 15+ anywhere else on planet earth!  Now it’s past your bedtime Old Timer!  ?
