Plus, we’ve got a good coach who’s really pumped up to get a regular program started here.”

  • First pitch

    Another season of Owen County High School baseball got under way last week.
    The team played three road games during the week. The results were not what the Rebels were hoping for.

    The Rebels travelled to Frankfort Monday and  won decisively, 19-10.

  • I don't believe it!

    When the NCAA Tournament began three weeks ago, one question kept coming up. Who would be this year’s Butler? The answer to that question is unbelievable.
    This year’s Butler is actually Butler.
    The Bulldogs made it to the Final Four for the second year in a row. Butler will now have the chance to get back to the title game where they almost pulled off the biggest upset in tournament history a year ago.

  • Young Rebels eye regional...

    Experience is important. Even if how you come by it is difficult.
    The Owen County High School baseball team took some lumps in 2010. The team finished with just four wins last year and is hoping that going through that experience will only make them stronger in 2011.
    The team lost only three seniors from last year’s squad.
    Byron Robertson, Brody Layton and Kyle Kelly graduated meaning that many of those coming back this year have valuable experience. This year’s roster does not include a single senior.
