Rockets fall behind early at Lyon County

EDDYVILLE, Ky. – Lyon County beat Crittenden County for the ninth straight time Friday and as expected, it wasn’t close.

The defending Second Region champion Lyons are the odds on favorite to win the region again and they’re also among the top teams in Kentucky with one of the hottest recruits in the nation. 

Junior Travis Perry, who’s being courted by several high-profile college teams from the SEC, Big 10 and beyond, scored five threes en route to a 27-point game.

A second-half running clock helped ease the pain after the Lyon’s led 32-7 after the first period and by 37 points at intermission.

Crittenden falls to 2-4 overall and is now 1-1 in the district. Lyon is 4-1 overall and 1-0 in league play.

Elsewhere in the district Trigg County beat Livingston Central 78-53. Crittenden will play at Trigg County next Friday to complete the first round of district action.
