Rockets beat Dawson after slow start

DAWSON SPRINGS, Ky. – Crittenden County started a bit sluggish in a matinee game at Dawson Springs Saturday afternoon, but when the Rockets got going it was all downhill en route to a 60-44 victory.

The Rocket energy level was missing in the first half and Dawson (2-18) matched them on the scoreboard at 21 at the break.

Leading scorer Travis Champion had a three-pointer in the first period and couple of baskets in the second, but came alive when CCHS got Dawson in a running game in the third period and Champion unloaded 10, Preston Morgeson and Trace Derrington scored 7 apiece and Tanner Beverly got all of his 5 points in that frame. Crittenden (10-10) outscored the hosts 29-11 in the frame and coasted in for the victory.

Champion finished with 22, Morgeson 15 and Derrington 10.
