  • Rebel losing streak is over

    There are some streaks teams want to end - namely losing streaks.
    The Owen County High School baseball team ended such a streak last week when they hosted Walton-Verona at Dunavent Field.
    The Rebels had dropped eight-straight contests while Walton-Verona entered the game having won four in a row. One of the games in the middle of both streaks was a Bearcat 13-7 win over the Rebels on  April 30 in Verona.
    Owen County would get a measure of revenge as they defeated the visitors 5-3 to improve its record to 14-13 on the season.
