Courtney Davis Sets Fannin County Record For Career Points

Blue Ridge, GA – Courtney Davis has been a huge part of the Fannin County Lady Rebels success in her tenure with the team, and now her name will be etched in the record books forever.

In the first quarter of the Lady Rebels matchup vs Pickens on Tuesday night, Davis drove into the lane and banked in a left-handed layup for point number 1,407, breaking a record that stood for 30 years. Julie Mealer set the previous record of 1,406 in 1993.

The Lady Rebels would eventually lose the contest to Pickens County, but it was a night that will forever be remembered by Courtney and everyone on the floor.

“It was definitely a special moment,” Head Coach Ryan Chastain told TeamFYNSports. “You’re standing there watching a record be broken that has stood for 30 years, and Courtney still has over half of her senior season to go to add to it. There have been so many great women’s basketball players come through Fannin County. Courtney has really accomplished something great! She’s worked so hard and she definitely deserves all of the accolades,  but what I love most is through it all she has always put winning and her teammates first. She’s very confident in herself and humble at the same time. That’s the reason she has had so much success. She has an unbelievable work ethic paired with the right principles. She embodies everything we want our program to stand for. Tonight she solidified herself as one of the greatest Lady Rebels to ever play at Fannin, and that is exactly what she is.”

Davis has committed to continue her academic and athletic career at Young Harris College in the Fall.
