CORBIN — Corbin’s girls’ tennis team improved to 21-1 overall, and 12-0 against regional opponents by defeating Barbourville in match play, 7-2.
“This was a special night for our tennis family as we got to celebrate our three seniors — Allison Lundy, Abby Lunsford and Kaiden Walden,” Corbin coach Chris Jones said. “These seniors came up big for us with Allison and Abby both getting wins in singles and a win together in doubles. Then Kaiden came up with one the biggest wins of her career getting past one of the top three girls in the region in straight sets. We had solid efforts on all courts tonight as usual, but watching Kaiden dig in and pull out such a huge win was really something special. I’m so happy for her and just so proud of how hard she works.”
