  • Kentucky coaches talk about Glen...

    “The thing I will remember about coach Drury the most comes from the perspective of a young coach trying to build a program from the bottom and a district coach as well.

  • Collins turns Bearcat errors...

    SHELBYVILLE -- Just when it looked like Anderson County was turning the corner on the 2018 baseball season, the Bearcats’ defense wrecked Monday night.

    Seven errors, as scored by The Anderson News, allowed Collins to score six unearned runs in an 8-6 win over the Bearcats in a 30th District game at the Titans’ home park. Collins improved to 13-10 on the season and 3-2 in district play. Anderson, which had won two of its last three and was showing signs of coming around just in time for the post-season, fell to 3-16, 0-3.

  • Anderson tracksters deserve much...

    When you’ve been pushing out sports columns and news stories since Joe Hall was on the end of the Kentucky Wildcats’ bench, you’ve just about seen it all somewhere along the way.

    You even remember when the Cincinnati Reds were relevant and actually won baseball games. (I actually had a string of attending 17 straight games and 27 of 30 in Cincinnati where the Reds won. It’s been a while, obviously.)
