1. Corbin (10-3 overall, 3-0 vs. regional foes)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I said this once and I\u2019ll say it again, many folks had counted Corbin out after starting the season 1-3.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But boy, we\u2019re those folks wrong.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Lady Redhounds are winners of nine straight which includes last week\u2019s win over defending Region champion South Laurel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
One quick thought\u2026 are there any better duo than Corbin\u2019s Grace Gibson, and Olivia Jones?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
2. South Laurel (7-4, 3-1)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Lady Cardinals suffered their first regional loss since Oct. 13, 2020 after falling to Corbin in penalty kicks last week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
South Laurel had won 14 consecutive games against regional foes before the loss to the Lady Redhounds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Lady Cardinals have hit a rough patch in their schedule. They\u2019ve lost three in a row, and four out of their last seven matches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
3. North Laurel (3-3-1, 1-1)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Lady Jaguars remained in the third spot after surviving a 5-4 win over Whitley County last week. North Laurel has never lost to the Lady Colonels. The Lady Jaguars are 15-0 against Whitley County.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Jessica Miller\u2019s squad has a chance to move up this week with a match against South Laurel coming up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
4. Whitley County (4-8, 2-3)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Lady Colonels are better than what their record shows. They came very close to beating North Laurel for the first time in program history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
They have lost four in a row, and six out of their last seven matches, but a favorable schedule coming up could allow Whitley County to get hot at the right time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
5. Middlesboro (7-3, 4-1)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Lady Yellow Jackets are quietly having a fantastic season. They are now winners of three straight, and four out of their last five matches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Middlesboro only has two regular season games left, and should win both of them.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
