Thursday’s basketball doubleheader at St. Catharine College, against West Virginia Tech, will be Pink Zone Night.

In lieu of admissions being charged at the gate, fans are encouraged to give donations. All money collected Saturday will go to the Kay Yow Cancer Fund.
Kay Yow was head coach at North Carolina State for 34 years. She died in 2009 from breast cancer.
Also at Thursday’s games, cancer survivors in attendance will be recognized. The women’s game starts at 6 p.m. followed by the men’s game at 8 p.m.

The Patriot round ball teams journeyed to Portsmouth, Ohio, on Saturday to take on Mid-South Conference foe Shawnee State.

The men left with a 92-80 victory, but the St. Catharine women fell to the Bears, 66-47.    
The men’s victory kept J.T. Burton’s team in a second-place tie with Cumberlands in the conference. Both teams are 8-3, which puts them two games behind Georgetown (10-1). The 13th-ranked Patriots are now 14-5 overall.

The Washington County High School baseball team will be hosting a chili supper on Feb. 5 from 4:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. at the WCHS cafeteria.

Admission is $6 for adults and $3 for children.
The price of admission includes chili, peanut butter sandwiches, tea and desserts.
Tickets can be purchased from baseball players or at the door the night of the chili supper.
Three baskets will be auctioned off, including a University of Kentucky basket, a Washington County basket and a car care basket.

The Commanderettes will face possibly their toughest stretch of the season after returning from the Touchstone Energy All “A” Classic.

Washington County will begin that stretch with a rematch against Marion County (13-5). Tipoff is set for 7:30 p.m. on Saturday at Washington County High School.
In the last meeting, the Lady Knights beat the Commanderettes 74-38 at the Roby Dome in Lebanon.
Things have changed since that early December meeting, however.
