Corbin fell behind by 12 in the first half as Andrew Taylor got into foul trouble and missed much of the half. Corbin made a valiant effort at a comeback, but never could get over the hump due to Harlan County shooting 13-16 from the field in the second half.

 

Congratulations to the Black Bears on their first region title.

Carmichaels are lifelong family friends. Congratulations, guess I'll have to make a trip to Lexington!

Carmichael played very well, hitting several 3's beyond the NBA line. He was named MVP as well.

Congrats to Harlan County! Good luck next week!

81% shooting in the second half is hard for any team to overcome. And still the Bears had to hang on for a nail-biting two-point win. WOW! Carmichael was hitting them from Stephan Curry range.
