  • Bad luck streak continues for...

    If not for bad luck, the Owen County High School Lady Rebels would have no luck at all.
    The team hosted Oldham County Friday night in Owenton.
    After falling behind early, the Lady Rebels rallied to cut the deficit to 14-7 with just seconds left in the opening quarter.
    Instead of carrying some positive feelings into the second quarter it proved to be just enough time for the Lady Colonels. Oldham County caught the inbounds pass and launched a heave from 70 feet at the buzzer that hit nothing but net to push the lead to 17-7.
