    Middle school girls finish season
    The Harrison County Middle School seventh and eighth grade teams were eliminated from the Bluegrass Conference Tournament last week ending their seasons.

  • The right kind of hero

    I have been thinking about this column for a while from several different angles and finally recent events made it clearer as to what to say.
    While not being one to be a hero worshiper, I did have people in sports and other places that I looked up to over the years.  
    I always believe that if one has a good dad that the role of hero should be filled to some degree.  
    That was how it was for me but still I did have other people that I also looked up to in my life.

    The first round of the 38th District Tournament was finished on Tuesday night as lightning caused the Harrison County versus St. Patrick game to be postponed.  
    In the opening match, Mason County avenged an earlier defeat at the hands of Pendleton County by coming back for a 4-3 overtime victory over the Lady Cats.  
    The loss ended Pendleton County’s season at 5-14.

    “There were several factors that spelled disaster for us,” said Coach Nick Hill. “Playing on a way undersized field compared to what we usually play on, high wind gusts, lack of effort and not being mentally prepared or focused. All of these ingredients led to a very poor performance on our part and ultimately cost us the match.”

  • Pro teams need a quarterback

    While I realize that my title is not exactly a profound, brilliant statement, let me explain.  
    Sure, each and every team, pro or not, needs a quarterback and when the starter gets hurt it throws many teams into a tailspin.  
    However, professional teams seem to really hit the skids when their ace goes down.
    Some prime examples are taking place right now with the Cowboys, the Steelers and the Saints, and the Browns have also been affected.

    The seventh grade game was tied 8-8 at the half but Grant County’s running game proved too much for the Colts in the second half. The Braves scored twice on running plays after sustained drives.
