  • Big week on the diamond

    Excitement was not lacking when it came to Owen County softball last week.

    The Lady Rebels played six games that included a win in their final at bat, a come-from-behind victory in the next game, and another win that had been a long time coming. That was all before the weekend.

    The weekend began with a rain-out Friday night; a win Saturday morning followed by a bus ride; another win; and an exciting 8th Region All “A” Championship game that saw a comeback fall one run short.

    No one would blame anyone involved for being a little out of breath.

  • Lady Rebels take out frustration...

    A week that began with two close losses ended with a blowout win for the Owen County softball team.

    The Lady Rebels began last week by hosting a pair of district rivals in Henry County and Gallatin County. Both games ended with disappointing losses.
