in the first half,”” Thomas said.
“Then their athletic ability
took over in the second, and
they ran away with it.”
“But this was the first time
since 1978 that a Trion boys’
team went to the tournament,
when Coach (Lamar) Turner
took them. And he was a big
part of us going this year.”

In the fourth, the Bulldogs
