The Lady Dragons of Appomattox Regional Governor’s School were able to push the Franklin High School Lady Broncos losing streak to 35, following the 35-18 TriRivers District basketball game. Head Coach Mona Sumblin said she wanted to win some games this year, but most of her players are still developing into varsity-level athletes.

“We are still building, still working hard and trying to get a program going,” Sumblin said after the loss.
