Today is a big day for the Cloudland Lady Highlanders and the Cloudland community as the 2020-2021 Lady Highlanders take to the floor inside the Murphy Center on the campus of Middle Tennessee State University against Loretto in the opening play of the 2021 Class A BlueCross State Championship.
Cloudland earned the trip on the heels of defeating the Oneida Lady Indians, 50-46, on the road at Oneida in the sectional contest.
The championships are back on after missing 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. With a win today against Loretto, Cloudland would advance to play the winner of the Peabody and Clay County game which is played before the Lady ‘Landers take the floor.
Good luck to the Cloudland Lady Highlander players, coaches, managers, training staff, parents, and fans on their trek to Murfreesboro for the 2021 BlueCross State Championship.
Bring back another gold ball to Carter County!
