BLUFF CITY, Tenn. – Having been eliminated by Elizabethton in last year’s District 1-AA girls basketball tournament, Sullivan Central seemed likely to have something to prove to the Cyclones in Monday’s district championship game at Sullivan East. But the Cougars, ranked sixth in the state, swept the Cyclones en route to a Three Rivers Conference title this season, and it was Elizabethton with the bigger chip on its shoulder when it mattered most. Tournament MVP Kaitlin Bailey scored four of her 18 points in a 6-0 run that gave Elizabethton a 51-45 lead beginning at the 2:50 mark of the fourth quarter and it pulled away for a 59-47 win and a second straight district title for third year coach Lucas Andrews.
