Lady Bearcats handle Walton-Verona for big regional win

WALTON -- Less than 24 hours after beating Woodford County by 34 points, the Anderson County girls’ basketball traveled up to Walton-Verona and picked up a big win against a fellow 8th Regional opponent, beating Walton-Verona 65-47.

The win moves Anderson to 22-6 on the season and extends their win streak to six, all of which have come by double digits.

“I think we’re doing the right things and we’re doing what we need to do in practice to get better and get ready for the postseason,” Jaclynn Ruble said after the game.

Super Bowl wasn’t all that bad

After the conclusion of Super Bowl LIII, which the Patriots won over the Rams 13-3, there were two things that I primarily saw on my Twitter feed.

Tom Brady is the greatest of all time and the game was super boring.

I’ll get to the latter point in a second, but yes, I do believe Brady is the G.O.A.T. He has more Super Bowl rings than he does fingers on either one of his hands, and he’s got plenty of NFL records that prove he’s more than just someone who plays well in the playoffs.

Coming home at last

The last time the Anderson County girls’ basketball team played a string of home games, the Lady Bearcats were only nine games into their season and Christmas was still 10 days away.

Since then Anderson has played 15 of its last 16 games on the road, going 12-4 during that span. With only five games left of the regular season, the Lady Bearcats will now return to a venue that’s familiar and unfamiliar at the same time, that is their home gymnasium.

Patience pays off for Bearcats

VERSAILLES -- Between Jan. 26-31, the Anderson County boys’ basketball team had two of its games canceled due to weather, which at the time was unfortunate since the players wanted to play.

Fast-forward to Feb. 2 and that extra time off from games proved to be a benefit for the Bearcats, as it helped them pull off a big 54-47 win at Woodford County.
