  • Deer hunters take to the woods...

    Kentucky’s modern gun deer season opens statewide Nov. 8. For the state’s estimated 254,000 deer hunters, it’s the most popular weekend of the year to hunt.

    “The deer harvest to this point is up from last year,” said Tina Brunjes, big game program coordinator for the Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife Resources. “That’s partly due to good weather, but also indicative that we’ve got a lot of deer.”

  • Train-wrecked Kentucky: Eat...

    Humble pie comes to us all. Last Saturday, near 2 o’clock eastern time SEC East south-bound Kentucky was struck by a north-bound coal train called Florida at sonic speed. 63-5.

    By 2:45, as jubilant Gator fans flapped their arms and clamored for more from the Urban Meyer diesels, three things happened.

    First, Steve Ortmayer, the special teams coach, got a chin job from Rich Brooks after which he looked as if he’d been hit by a blocking sled.

  • Bears run down Henry Co.

    An effective run-it-down-their-throat offense, combined with a defense that made the big plays, allowed the Spencer County Bears to collect what their coach calls the biggest win in the school’s history with a 38-25 victory on the road over Henry County Friday night.

    “This is no doubt the biggest win in our program’s history,” said Head Coach Matt Powenski, whose Bears, at 2-5 on the season, came in as the decided underdogs against the ranked Wildcats.

    Cody Ingram tries to maneuver around two defenders during a recent home game for the Spencer County Bears.

    The boys soccer team finished the season with a loss last Monday night during the opening round of district tournament play in Shelby County, but the game was a good measuring stick for how much improvement they made over the season.

    The Bears fell 5-1 to highly-regarded Oldham County, but in doing so, made great strides from earlier in the season when they lost to the same team 10-0 back in August.

    For the season, the Bears finished 4-13-2 on the year.
