  • Fifth annual “Jungle” this weekend at the Cynthiana Country Club

    “This tournament is a small way we can honor and remember our good friend,” said Doug Hampton of the Palmer-Hampton Insurance and Real Estate Agency. “Jim Letcher and I played golf every Sunday at 12:20 p.m. for 26 years if it was 55 degrees or more.”
    The tournament formerly called the Palmer-Hampton Member/Guest was changed to “The Jungle” in 2009 following Letcher’s untimely death.  
    Letcher was an active member of the Cynthiana Country Club and of the community as a whole.

    The Breds, coached by Nick Hill, are anxious to get the season started so they can improve on last year’s historic region winning season.

  • Football season predictions

    Alabama will win the championship again. Nice short article.
    I’m a little surprised at the preseason polls that I see putting Texas A&M up really high in the national picture and not giving LSU much of a chance to compete with Alabama and Georgia for the overall SEC title.  
    Johnny Manziel has the media in a frenzy over the Aggies and I must say the schedule favors a good showing but not a grand power rating.

  • Harrison County volleyball hopes to rebound from last year

    “It was our first losing year in 10 years,” Coach Bill Faulkner said of the 2012 season. “We were 14-18, but could have been even with a few breaks. We will be better this year.”
    The volleyball Fillies have six seniors returning, three with varsity experience and three others with some varsity and a lot of junior varsity experience.  
    Two other sophomores return with starting experience, one a libero and one at left outside hitter, so Faulkner is feeling pretty good about his experienced players.
