Turner County boys and girls head coach Tasha Kimble led her undefeated Lady Rebels to the semifinals yesterday with a 56-42 win over Telfair County. Kimble made sure the weekend remained historically busy as the Turner County boys battled past Calhoun County 69-47 Friday night at Valdosta State to also advance to the A-Public semifinals on Saturday. Calhoun County gained control early and took a 20-16 lead at the end of the opening quarter. Reggie Ross picked up a third foul midway through the second quarter, however and the Cougars fell apart before the half. Calhoun County went scoreless the final 4:20 of the half and saw the lead evaporate and turn into a 35-25 halftime deficit. Turner County held a 46-40 lead at the end of the third quarter and piled on a 23-7 scoring edge in the final frame.
