The old 53rd had a monopoly on girls talent in the late 80's and early 90's. I would add Christy Freeman Christy Sexton and courtney Myers from Jenkins. Kris Harlow, Christine Sexton, Mel Sturgill, Beth Kincer, Heather Watko from Fleming Neon. I think for several years in a row like 6-7 the 53rd produced the regional champs, and several of those years the 1,2, and 3 team was WHS, FNHS, & JHS

These were good players also. You are exactly right. Whitesburg or Fleming-Neon won the region in 1983, 1984, 1985, 1988, 1989, 1990, 1991, 1992, 1993. Whitesburg was regional runner up in 1989, 1990, 1994. Most of these teams were ranked in the top ten in the state and there was times that Whitesburg was ranked number #1. Jenkins and Fleming-Neon took turns winning the All A region in the early nineties.
