Lady Pats Advance 49-40

The Lincoln County Lady Pats found a way to survive and advance. That's the name of the game in March.

The Lady Pats were led in scoring by senior Kendra Brown (16pts). Upchurch threw in 14pts. It was a team effort from the team. The Lady Pats led most of the night, but surrendered the lead in the 4th quarter to Casey. LC finally seized control late in the 4th on back-to-back three's by Emily Fox and Jessica Upchurch.

LC will play Southwestern on Friday night at 6pm.

12th Region Tournament

Lincoln County is hosting the 12th region tournament this year. It promises to be a very emotional event for the Lady Pats.

They are the home team, the co-favorite, and are playing the last game(s) of Head Coach Don Story's career. Story is planning on retiring when the season ends. That could be tonight, when the Lady Pats host their arch rival, the Casey County Lady Rebels. Hopefully that won't be the case and Story's girls will win the region and go to the Sweet Sixteen in Bowling Green next week.

A very tough draw for the first round of the region. Casey is easily the best of the (losers bracket) teams. Casey defeated Lincoln County last year in the 12th Region Championship game.

The Lady Pats and Lady Rebels will do battle at 7:45 tonight, at LCHS. Good luck to Coach Story and the girls.
