Hailey Smith led the way with 14 points, while Miranda Wilson (12 points) and Shai Roaden (10 points) also scored in double figures.

Corbin (4-3) raced out to a 17-5 lead in the first quarter and never looked back.

“I thought we did a good job of running our offense in the first half and that allowed us to to get the lead,” Parsons said.

The Lady Redhounds continued to dominate in the second quarter and built a commanding 32-13 lead at halftime.

Pendleton County rallied in the third quarter and cut its deficit to 13 points (33-20) with 4:01 remaining, but Corbin managed to take a 43-27 lead into the fourth quarter after only hitting on four-of16 shot attempts during the quarter.

“We didn’t have a good shot selection in the third quarter and that hurt us some,” Parsons said.

Corbin wrapped up the win in the fourth quarter, despite getting outscored, 19-16.
