     MOUNT WASHINGTON – The Bullitt East Lady Chargers beat everybody they faced last week except for Mother Nature.

    And they almost beat her.

  • Bullitt East splits pair of...

     MOUNT WASHINGTON – After needing two days to defeat district rival Fern Creek, the Bullitt East Chargers put themselves behind the eight-ball as far as district play is concerned as they dropped a 3-2 decision at Jeffersontown on Thursday.

    The Chargers then did get to play on Friday night, beating North Oldham 10-4 in a game that was halted after six innings because of darkness.

    That action left Bullitt East with a 13-8 record overall heading into the final month of the regular season.

  • Eagles need 11 innings to defeat...

     HIGHVEIW -- If anyone in the local baseball world was shocked by Moore’s recent defeat of Bullitt Central to open district play, they should be surprised no more.

    It took everything the North Bullitt Eagles had to pull out a 5-3 victory in 11 innings.

    The victory left the Eagles in great shape to do what they’ve done since joining the 23rd District -- win the championship.

    After Dylan Kleitz pitched 9-plus spectacular innings, Alec Lush had to work out of a one-out jam in the 10th to keep the game going.

  • Cougars get key victory by...

     SHEPHERDSVILLE – Desperately needing a win in district play, the Bullitt Central Cougars picked up a very important victory last Tuesday when they slipped past Southern 3-1.

    Bullitt Central put the ball in the hands of junior pitcher Garrison Ijames and he came through with a complete game victory, allowing just two hits and a solo run in the fifth inning. Ijames, who had struggled a week earlier in a district loss to Moore, struck out eight in this game and walked four.

  • Lady Chargers shine in inaugural...

     MOUNT WASHINGTON – Have track, will host.

    That seems to be the philosophy of Bullitt East track coach Lenny Raley. The program now has a solid track facility and for the second timie this spring the Charger program hosted a meet on Wednesday.

    This second effort was bigger and bolder with nine teams taking part in what was titled the Bullitt East Invitational. Raley even rented an electronic scoring and timing system that moved the meet along at a much faster pace than the first meet of the season had when there were only five teams taking part.

    Led by the team’s lone senior, Andrew Dean who had a 292, the Cougars shot a final total of 3409, a total that was slightly off of the 3416 that the team shot in winning the Region Four Tournament ten days earlier.

  • A horrible start sinks BC in...

     SHEPHERDSVILLE – One bad inning put the Bullitt Central Cougars behind the eight ball on Thursday and the maroon and gray could not recover as they dropped a key 23rd District game to Moore by a 7-3 score.

    In fact, in the only two games that the Cougars played last week, they were behind early. The only good news was that the team managed to rally on Friday and beat Thomas Nelson 8-3 on the road.
