Hodgenville High School’s last year of operation in 1958 was highlighted by a famous climb to the top by its basketball team – the Eagles.

The team won the 6th regional tournament, which led the team to the “Sweet 16” state tournament – the first and only time in HHS history.

Eagle pride soared as the team defeated Hart Memorial High School and Caverna High School in the 22nd District Tournament sending the team on to the regional tournament.

Bryson Arnette was named most valuable player in the opening game of the Cal Ripken Ohio Valley Regional tournament in Somerset.

Thursday’s opener ended with the LaRue County 10-year-old All-Stars defeating Bay Port from Green Bay, Wisconsin 7-5.

Bay Port managed to tie the game in the bottom of the eighth inning, but Arnette, LaRue’s pitcher, induced a ground out to himself to help his team hold on for the win.
