December, 1993
What a great month. Basketball
began. I got a chance to return
home for nearly a week. I saw snow
in Georgia. Wow!
The strangest thing I had to
cover was Tim Simmons resigning
after two games as the Perry girls
coach. I didn't even find out about it
until the day after it happened.
The other highlight was Perry
beating Washington County in the
championship of the Houston
County Invitational. Great game,
especially considering how awful
Perry had played in the two opening
games of the tournament.
