  • A positively good time in...

    Patti tells me often before I write my column to be positive. I sometimes find it difficult to do so but this week I do not.  
    We had a great time in Indianapolis Saturday and Sunday.
    Sure no one likes to lose, but we played hard and at the end of the day that is really all a coach can ask his or her team to do. Playing smart would also be nice. Teams don’t always do that, but that is not positive.
    There are several observations that I would like to make about the weekend.

  • One of the good guys

    During the painful viewing of the Harrison County, Pendleton County doubleheader, I was lucky enough to share a little more than one half of a game talking with one of Harrison County’s greats.  
    Teddy Taylor came up to where I sit in the “Catholic” section and we talked about many and varied subjects.  
    I say “one of the best-ever” not just talking about Teddy’s great football playing days but how he is an all around good person.

    Turnovers and tentative play led to a resounding defeat Monday night for Harrison County at home at the hands of the George Rogers Clark Lady Cards.  
    The Lady Cards (11-8) used a full-court press through the first half to cause 19 turnovers and forced shots by the Fillies.  
    The Fillies started okay with the score even at four each after two minutes.
