  • BASKETBALL: Lady Hawks lose to North

     With scouts in Hodgenville on Dec. 11 from three NCAA Division-I schools and one NAIA program looking for future stars, the area’s top prep girls’ player of the present gave them plenty of reasons to consider her.

    North Hardin senior forward Chanel Roberts, the reigning Area Player of the Year, had game-highs in points (28) and rebounds (15) and three assists as the visiting Lady Trojans ended the LaRue County Lady Hawks’ unbeaten start, 62-48.

  • BASKETBALL: Hawks hold off Hart

    Coach Paul Childress isn’t going to stand for any more near-epic collapses.

    He’s making sure the LaRue County Hawks understand that, too.

    LaRue County hung on for a 61-57 victory Friday at 18th District rival Hart County, not making a field goal for the final 6:36 and nearly letting a 21-point lead slip away.

    Childress was so frustrated with the Hawks’ fourth quarter performance that he spent 30 minutes talking to them in the locker room and made all players ride the bus home afterward.
