  • Soccer Hawks undefeated in first...

    LaRue County's boys' soccer team has had a successful first week of the season. Playing four varsity matches and two junior varsity matches in six days, the Hawks emerged unbeaten at the varsity level and junior varsity.

    Albeit the Hawks have played varsity soccer for three years, the team has not competed in a district/region environment. That has changed this year, and the first two district opponents were met with anxiety.

    The Hawks held their own against Bardstown, a seasoned team with 12 seniors and seven returning starters. The result was a 0-0 draw.
