Across town, the the Williamsburg Yellow Jackets had no trouble with visiting Middlesboro, defeating the “other” Jackets by a final score of 36-6. The win puts Williamsburg at 5-1 overall.
Finally, the Lynn Camp Wildcats went on the road Friday and fell to Harlan Independent, 30-8. The 3-4 Cats will travel again next week to play at Pineville.
