The Harrison County Fillies volleyball team is hitting stride as they head into the final three weeks of the regular season.  
Despite losing in a lackluster performance Tuesday night at Lexington Christian, Coach Bill Faulkner sees a good light at the end of the tunnel.
“The girls were a little out of sync tonight,” he noted after the loss. “Allison Cordray, our senior setter and team leader, was out with an illness and we really missed her.”  

The first quarter of the Mason County vs. Harrison County football game at the Athletic Complex Friday was a lesson in how not to play.  
The first two possessions ended in fumbles and Mason County’s next possession climaxed with a safety for the hometown Thorobreds as Cory Webber tackled the punter in the end zone.  
After the safety, the Royals’ free kick put the ball on the Mason County 35-yard line and a short run, a holding penalty and two incomplete passes found the Breds punting from the Royals’ 49.  

Cross country runners
participate in Born to Run
Twenty-two of the nearly 400 runners in the Cynthiana-Harrison County Chamber of Commerce Born to Run were members of the Harrison County Cross Country team.  
The race, which was won by David Robeson of the Bullard team, was for runners of all ages and covered the 5K distance in times of 18 minutes, 20 seconds to 1 hour, 3 minutes and 27 seconds.    

In what would have to be fate, the Harrison County Soccer Thorobreds dropped two one-goal losses to George Rogers Clark and Sayre on Thursday and Tuesday nights.
The GRC loss was a very physical-style game which featured offensive domination by the Thorobreds that resulted in a 15-2 shot on goal advantage but still a loss for the Breds.  
A mental lapse early gave the Cardinals a lead but right before half Daniel Klapheke tapped in a screaming shot by Kyle Foster to make the game a tie at the intermission.
