Rockets fall after early lead at Caldwell

PRINCETON, Ky. – It was some the team’s best play this season, but Crittenden County lost on the road 56-43 Tuesday at Caldwell County.

After leading by six at the half, Crittenden was unable to hang on down the stretch as the Rockets struggled to overcome foul trouble with a roster thinned by injuries. 

The Tigers improved to 11-7. Crittenden falls to 2-14 and will host Livingston Central Friday in a district makeup game.

“We just ran out of gas. Our guys had Caldwell on the ropes until we started picking up fouls and had to back off (defensively), coach Matt Fraliex said.

Crittenden shot five foul shots in the game and Caldwell shot 23.
