    The homesteading Eagles would not trail after the 2:00 mark of the first quarter and placed four scorers in double digits.

  • Lady Cougars struggle in opener

     SHEPHERDSVILLE – The first night of the regular season against Trimble County didn’t go so well for the Bullitt Central Lady Cougars, but the team bounced back two nights later and picked up win number one as they trounced Jeffersontown.

    On Tuesday, playing at home, the Lady Cougars just did not shoot the ball well. In fact, the team didn’t do very much right over the first three quarters before rallying from being ten points down with seven minutes to play to pull even at 34-34 with a minute to play.

  • Chargers ready for successful season

     MOUNT WASHINGTON – Ready, willing, experienced and favored.

    For the first time since Derek Willis, Rusty Troutman and Trey Rakes were walking the hallways at Bullitt East, the Chargers are the team to beat this winter in the always-tough Sixth Region.

    Coach Bob Blackburn’s team has already been ranked as high as eighth in the state in pre-season polls and they have been the regional favorite since the end of last season after losing 65-61 to eventual champion Doss in the regional semi-finals at Valley.

  • Lady Chargers ready to overcome setback

      MOUNT WASHINGTON – Not many basketball teams can lose a high Division-I player and still feel like they can still compete with the top teams in the area.

    Not the Bullitt East Lady Chargers.

    Despite the loss for junior guard Lindsey Duvall, who recently had successful surgery to remove a tumor from her knee, the Lady Chargers still think they can challenge for the top spot in both the 24th District and the Sixth Region.

     HEBRON ESTATES – Playing a sport in high school, even if you are not a top-level athlete, can turn into a positive outcome when it comes to deciding on a college destination.

  • Now healthy, Lady Cougars expect to contend

    SHEPHERDSVILLE – With just over a week remaining until the first game, Bullitt Central Lady Cougar head coach Kyle Roach was all smiles.

    He should be.
