  • Commanderettes now on four-game...

    Bardstown

    Last Saturday night, the WC Commanderettes (1-4, 0-2) hosted the Bardstown Lady Tigers (2-3, 1-0) and lost by a score of 47-40.

    Last season, the Commanderettes were able to sweep a struggling Bardstown team  and even outscored them by a total of 32 points in only two matchups.

    But Bardstown, now on a two-game winning streak, looks to exceed last season’s six-game win total early on.

  • Getting Defensive

    Tim Mattingly began playing organized football as soon as he was allowed to pad up, which wasn’t until middle school for Washington County children in the late ‘70s.

    But after seeing his cousins—Adam and Larry Smith—put on that WCHS Commander uniform, Mattingly was hooked.

    “It was in my blood,” Mattingly said. “I just had a real passion for it, and I never could get it out of my system.”

  • WC boys off to 0-2 start

    The WC Commanders had a rough two-game stretch to start the season this past week, to say the least.

    After a 79-21 drubbing at the hands of the Taylor County Cardinals last week, WC travelled to Casey County to face off against the Rebels, but the results were much of the same, losing 83-42.

    However, despite the rough start, assistant coach Paul Howard credited his players for “getting back in the gym and just working hard in practice.”

  • Commanderettes start season with...

    In an opening-night thriller, the WC Commanderettes were on the ropes with the game on the line against the Taylor County Lady Cardinals.

    They had just surrendered a five-point lead in just over 30 seconds and found themselves in a tied game with 27 seconds remaining.

    After WC had already clawed their way back from a nine-point second-half deficit, it looked as if they might be headed to overtime.

    But as sophomore Karagan Brizendine dribbled the clock down and finally made her move to the basket with under 10 seconds to play, fate intervened.

  • SCC sweeps Bluefield

    SCC Lady Patriots

    The St. Catharine Lady Patriots (2-4, 1-1 MSC) got back on track Saturday afternoon, knocking off the Bluefield Rams (3-3, 0-2 MSC) 78-74.

    After the Patriot offense sputtered against the Pikeville Bears in the conference opener, the

    Lady Patriots were hungry to get back to their winning ways when Bluefield came to town.
    After a sloppy first half in which both teams shot less than 25 percent from the field, the Patriot offense caught fire, nailing 48 second-half points.

  • SCC men split at LWC holiday...

    Last week, the SCC Patriots (5-3, 1-1 MSC) traveled to Columbia to take on nationally ranked Robert Morris College (7-2) and Life University (6-5).

    The St. Catharine Patriots have a knack for playing “David versus Goliath,” with three of their last four contests being against ranked opponents, and a Thanksgiving special at Lindsey Wilson wouldn’t change that. The Eagles of Robert Morris came into the contest holding a top-10 national ranking, and the Patriots would make them earn every vote as they took the Eagles to the wire.
