BRANCH- It was a Cinderella season last year for the County Line Indians and their fans. In improbable fashion, the Indians did not lose a game all season, finishing 45-0 and state champions in Class 1A.
In the picture above, Aundrae Milum receives his state championship ring from Coach Joe Brunson. To top off his successful season, Aundrae was selected to play in the All-Star game. Coach Brunson was selected to head up the West All Star Team and led them to victory over the East team for the first time in many years.
County Line’s state championship game concluded with a thrilling last-second shot victory over Marked Tree in the Class 1A state final in Hot Springs. And last week, members of the team were presented state championship rings for their outstanding season that will be remembered forever in the minds of Indians fans.
Finishing a perfect 45-0 in 2022-23, the Indians boys basketball program’s last loss was on March 11, 2022, in a 44-41 loss in the state playoffs to Bradley.
On behalf of everyone at RNN Sports, we would like to congratulate everyone at County Line on the Indians’ 2022-23 state championship season!
