Athens High School senior Corinne Earnest signed with Texas A&M Commerce Tuesday to play soccer. She is seated between parents Renda and Jeff Garner and siblings Camden and Cobee. Standing are grandmother Karen Richardson, sister Callie Earnest and Coach Mark Hall. Cori is continuing in her mother’s footsteps, as Renda Garner played on the first women’s soccer team at A&M-Commerce Lions from 1995 to 1996. “Cori brings not only her skill and determination but considerable character to the team,” said Hall.
