Rebels run in Danville

By: BRIAN BLAIR
It was another busy Saturday for the Owen County track teams. The boys and the girls traveled to Danville to take part in the 12th Annual E.G. Plummer Invitational. The meet was held at Admiral Stadium at Danville High School.
The girls had several strong performances. Danielle Hoop finished seventh and Rachel Dauwe came in 14 in the 100 Meter Dash. The same two also ran well in the 200 Meter Dash with Hoop placing seventh and Dauwe finishing 13th. Hoop continued her solid day with a second place finish in the 400 Meter Dash with Dauwe placing 11th. Hoop was not finished running well as the freshman placed third in the 800 Meter Run. Kelsey Johnson ran fifth in the 100 Meter Hurdles.

Middle school baseball wins two

By: BRIAN BLAIR
The last two times the Bowling Middle School baseball team played have been successful.
The boys took on Gallatin County on April 28 in Warsaw. They defeated the Wildcats 16-2. Justin Stephens, Collin Trammel, Zach Ripy and Trevor Williams each had two hits in the game. Stone Osborne pitched four innings, striking out seven. Andrew Giles came in to pitch a perfect fifth inning. The Rebels had seven stolen bases in the game.
The team then hosted Walton-Verona on Thursday night. It took extra innings but the Rebels managed to come away with a 4-3 win. Sawyer Williams was a perfect 3-for-3 at the plate including the game winning hit in the bottom of the sixth inning. Jarrod Ball threw the ball well on the mound, allowing just three hits while striking out three. Giles pitched the final two innings and did not allow a hit.
The team will be back in action this week as they play two games. The Rebels played at Carroll County on Monday night and will play at home against Henry County tonight.

Rebels close out week with win

By: BRIAN BLAIR

Owen County opened up the week with a home game against Carroll County. Jamie Giles had a pair of hits and an RBI in the game but it was not enough as the Panthers came away with the 6-3 victory.

Lady Patriots outlast

Lady Rebels

By: BRIAN BLAIAR
Owen County made a trip to Lincoln County April 29 for a game with the Lady Patriots. The Lady Rebels scored five runs on seven hits in the game, but in the end the Lady Patriots prevailed, 10-5.
Lauren Lowe opened the game with a walk and came around to score, giving Owen County an early advantage. The lead would be brief, however as Lincoln County answered in the bottom of the first inning with four runs.
Eighth-grader Miranda Owens got the start on the mound for Owen County. After allowing the four runs in the opening inning, the lefty settled down and didn’t allow another run until the fourth inning.
