Allow me to rant a little about the recent Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife’s annual elk “drawing.”

As you can probably guess, neither I, nor anyone I know of as of this writing, was drawn for any of the tags again this year. I vowed before buying a license for the 2013-14 seasons that I would not “donate” another $10 of my hard earned money to a flawed system but I did anyway hoping for one last opportunity after all these years. 

SHELBYVILLE – It looked like a good pitch.

It WAS a good pitch.

Two were out in the bottom of the ninth and Anderson County's Josh Brown had 1-2 count on Collins' Dan Sanders.

Somehow, though, Sanders got his bat on a fastball, dropping a soft line drive into right field to score Mason Jeffries and give Collins a 1-0 walk-off win over Anderson County in the 30th District semifinal game at Shelby County Athletic Complex last Tuesday.

Fireworks aren't just for the Fourth of July.

At least, that was the case around Anderson County softball Monday evening.

Bailey Curry and Alissa Vest both belted Memorial Day home runs and the Lady Bearcat speed manufactured at least five runs as Anderson routed visiting Walton-Verona, 10-3, in the first round of the Eighth Region Tournament.

Anderson County overcame an uncharacteristically sloppy performance to score an 8-6 win over Collins in the 30th District Tournament championship game played on a soggy Anderson field Thursday night.

The Lady Bearcats committed three errors in the field and had several base running gaffes that included a pair of would-be base stealers gunned down after missing signs, according to Anderson coach Brian Glass.
