Honaker High School bid adieu to the Black Diamond District with a trophy haul.
The Tigers won the baseball, softball and boys soccer tournament titles on Friday, May 19th in what were officially their final league games as a member of the BDD.
Honaker moves to the Hogoheegee District for the 2023-24 school year.
The Tigers’ run in the Black Diamond District began in the fall of 1988.
“Yes, it is bittersweet to be leaving the BDD,” said Honaker athletic director Trevor Coleman. “The move was made to do what was in the best interest of our student-athletes, but that kind of decision doesn’t come without mixed feelings.
“The BDD has been our home for a little more than 30 years, so it’s all that our kids, fans and coaches know. I have developed some great professional relationships and personal friendships with my colleagues in the district and I’m certain my co-workers at Honaker feel the same. While we will no longer be district rivals, we will still have some games with BDD schools next year and could possibly face them in regional playoff games.”
