Coach Erick Baird prides himself on what his Warren County High School girls basketball team does on and off the court. The Lady Pioneers picked up 17 victories this season, but Tuesday’s award ceremony at the District 6-AAA tournament may have given Baird his biggest win yet.The Lady Pioneers were honored with the District 6-AAA sportsmanship award in recognition of their positive attitudes on the court and the great work the team did in the community this season.Coach Baird believes the award recognizes not only his team, but the parents who help within the program.“It is a testimony to how hard our players and parents work. From the hospitality room to the oncourt actions of our kids, the award gives notice to the character that is displayed by our community at basketball events,” said Baird.Baird noted his team’s varsity GPA is a cumulative 3.7 and the team has also been involved in charity work with Habitat for Humanity and the Kay Yow Foundation.
