Thursday and A Look at Friday

I finally got the chance to watch ACS play this season (the Patriots defeated Franklin-Simpson 2-0 on Thursday), and I'll tell you one thing: home runs are fun to watch. Anyway, here's a look at Thursday's highlights...

--#3 Henderson County d. Lyon County 9-1
After being routed by Owensboro Catholic and placed on Upset Alert, the Colonels responded by taking down the Lyon County Lyons in impressive fashion. Still, outside the 7th region, the 2nd region is the deepest region in the state.

--#15 South Laurel d. Estill County 12-2
The Engineers seem to have lost all the magic at this point, but props go to the Cardinals here. After being very inconsistent over the first few weeks of the season, it looks as if South Laurel is putting all the pieces together for a regional championship run.

--#19 Edmonson County d. Apollo 2-1
Don't overlook Apollo in the 3rd region. Even though they shouldn't pose a threat to fellow 9th district foe Owensboro Catholic, Grayson County and Edmonson County should be wary of them if they should reach the regional tournament.

--All other scores can be found on KHSAA's scoreboard as they are updated throughout the day.
