Lady Rockets remain undefeated in 5th District

EDDYVILLE, Ky. – Natalie Boone was hot from the start as Crittenden County built a big lead then held off a late Lyon County flurry to win 60-43 and remain undefeated in Fifth District play this season.

After leading by a dozen at the half, CCHS forged ahead by 20 points in the third period, but went flat from the floor letting Lyon County get back into the game down the stretch. The Lady Rockets were scoreless for more than seven minutes in the final frame until Anna Boone sank a couple foul shots. Meanwhile Lyon (6-7, 1-2) had trimmed the lead to single digits.
