BARBOURVILLE \u2014 Eric Swords\u2019 Whitley County Colonels notched win No. 20 on Thursday, cruising to an easy, 71-42, win over Barbourville.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Colonels received stellar efforts from Evan and Dre Ellis, who combined to score 38 points in the win.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Swords said he believed it\u2019s the first time in program history that Whitley County has won at least 20 games in consecutive years and only the fifth 20-win season in program history. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dre Ellis finished with 25 points while Evan Ellis finished with 13 points. Bryce Anderson also had a big game, finishing with 14 points.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cGood road win for our guys,\u201d Swords said. \u201cI thought we were active defensively and did a great job on the 50\/50 balls and rebounding. We have a tough three regular season games coming up to end the season. We play the No. 1 and No. 2 teams in the region and a North Laurel team, who I believe is top 5. We will have our work cut out for us but we want that to help us prepare for district.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whitley County led out of the gate, building a 17-6 lead in the first quarter while never looking back. The Colonels held a 36-21 lead at halftime, and pushed their advantage to 54-33 entering the fourth quarter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jasper Hubbs led Barbourville with 15 points while Riley Corey added 11 points.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
