BHarrison County improved its 2013 baseball record to 18-5 on Thursday as they defeated Anderson County’s Bearcats 5-2 in a game on the Hilltop.  
The Bearcats (7-16) trailed throughout the game as senior hurler Jordan Martin held them to four hits in his six innings of work.  
Anderson County scored both of its runs in the top of the seventh off relief pitcher Gus Garrison, who gave up a home run to junior lead off hitter Brandon Eliadis after he had walked pinch hitter Christian Shepherd.

The Harrison County Fillies are closing out the regular season with a mixture of district and region rivals and some tough games in Lexington.

Senior Ashley Coppage was four-for-four to lead the Harrison County attack.  

I try to get home at night in time to tell my two youngest grandchildren a bedtime story.  
This time of year when I umpire a lot and other times when I am working and traveling, I don’t get home to tell one but many nights I do.

No stories about “little Jerry” or the such, but entertaining tidbits of the G or at least PG rating are what the grandchildren ask me to tell them.
