1994 Knox Central was rated top 10 or 15 in state. They only lost a game or two going into the district. The blind draw days landed them corbin first round of district. Pietrowski and that team won in a close one. Central had brandon elam ( played at charleston southern and union) alvin sharp (one of the all time leading scorers at pre Division 1 Lipscomb) and julius blaylock (decent career at union).

Corbin vs Knox Central was MUST WATCH basketball that season. Billy Hicks and Bill Swafford literally went nose to nose at midcourt during Corbin's win at Knox Central in a game in which both teams were ranked top five , I believe,  in the AP poll. One of the best atmospheres and games I ever remember attending. You talk about INTENSE!!!  Allen Sharpe of the Panthers was one of the best long distance shooters I've ever seen. He led the Panthers to a 54-9 record over the '93-'94  and '94-95 seasons.
