  • Anderson awakens, advances to...

    Corey Sayre knew Anderson County would win but that did not make the Lady Bearcat volleyball coach any happier.

    A heavy favorite in the 28th District tournament semifinals, being played on its home floor, Anderson was on the wrong end of a 10-7 score to Eminence Monday night. Not only did Sayre call for a time out, he pulled his team away from the bench and huddled along the basketball baseline.
