  • Chargers beat the Wildcats and the storm

     JEFFERSONTOWN – Get started, get a win, move on.

    Being perfect just makes it that much easier.

    That has been the post-season lament for high school coaches for a long time. Every team starts the post-season with a 0-0 record and regular season numbers don’t mean a thing. Just live to play another day.

    The Bullitt East Chargers did all of that and more on Sunday as the red and gold beat the rain and defeated Whitefield Academy 10-0 in the opening game of the 24th District Tournament at Jeffersontown High School.

  • Lady Chargers’ bats go cold at the wrong time

     JEFFERSONTOWN – Riding a four-game winning streak, the longest of the season, the Bullitt East Lady Chargers appeared ready to make some noise in the 24th District Tournament.

    That route started well as the red and gold barely beat the rain on Sunday and defeated Whitefield Academy 17-2 in a contest that lasted just three innings.

    However, that rain forced the two semi-finals, scheduled for later on Sunday, to be moved back to Monday. Playing in the second game that day, the Lady Chargers could not generate any offense and lost to Jeffersontown 5-1.
