LIBERTY - As far as Casey County athletics director Victor Black is concerned, twins Tylyn and Taylor Leigh are the definition of “what a student-athlete” should be for everyone. “They are hard workers in the classroom and in the gym or on the court. I've seen Taylor in the gym at all hours working on his basketball skills over the last four years. Tylyn spent a great deal of time conditioning in the offseason and played many tennis matches over the summer and pick up matches to improve her game,” said Black.
