Coach Todd Willmore said before the year started one word he feared was potential because it’s never a certainty a team can fulfill it.Following the Lady Pioneers most recent victory, a 7-1 whipping of White County, coach Willmore can rest assure his team has done its best thus far to live up to the billing it received before the season.With Tuesday’s win, Warren County clinched the regular-season District 6-AAA title and improved its record to 14-2.The blowout victory was powered by sophomore Ansley Mullican, who scored the team’s first three goals on her way to pumping in four goals against the Warriorettes.The significance of the win, which means the Lady Pioneers will play all the district tournament games at home, wasn’t lost on the head coach.“Winning the district title is huge for our team,” said Willmore. “It’s something that hasn’t been done in quite some time. I don’t know if the girls have yet to grasp how big it is for us.“Winning the district means we’ll be at home in the district tournament.
