     MOUNT WASHINGTON – It might be basketball, but there are still times where small and quick can get the best of a bigger basketball team.

         Putting on an offensive showcase, the Eastside Eagles scored 36 points in the first half and then rolled to a 66-41 victory over the Zoneton Timberwolves.

  • Dismal-shooting East girls come...

     LOUISVILLE – A lot has been made lately of the Bullitt Lady Chargers and their suffocating defense and with good reason.

    Still, every so often you have to put the ball in the basket.

    That certainly didn’t happen very often on Saturday as the Lady Chargers dropped a 55-39 decision to Sacred Heart in the Raatz Fence/O’Shea’s Basketball Classic at Mercy High School. Bullitt East shot just 25 percent from the field against the Valkyries and made it worse by connecting on just 10 of 26 at the free throw line.

  • North could be looking at two...

     SHEPHERDSVILLE – If the weather holds this week, and I know that is a huge ‘IF’ the way cold and snow have affected the area over the past month, but if the weather holds, this could be one of the biggest basketball weeks ever for the North Bullitt Eagles.

         By extension, if the Eagles have a big week this week, it could set the stage for a monumental occurrence for Bullitt County basketball as a whole.

         But first, let us stick to this week and North Bullitt.

Still, the Lady Chargers jumped out to a 23-8 lead after one quarter and never looked back, outscoring the 2010 State Champions in each quarter.
