Big Day for the Knights

When a school can celebrate a sports team winning a state championship, it’s a very big deal. When the same school can claim TWO state champions in the same year, that’s monumental. That’s the case for Cabell Midland High School. In the spring of this year, both its baseball and track teams captured their respective state titles in Class AAA.

Today, Huntington Mall honored both teams for their extraordinary victories at a Champions Rally in the mall’s Center Court. Cabell County Schools Superintendent Tim Hardesty and Athletic Director Jason Bankston were on hand to congratulate the athletes. Track Coach Chris Parsons recounted the season, thanked his assistant coaches and introduced the team members individually, as did Baseball Coach Tracy Brumfield.

The mall’s philanthropic arm, the Cafaro Foundation, presented the school with a $10,000 donation. Each student-athlete also received a Huntington Mall Gift Card.
