Girls win, boys fall on the road in Saturday hoops

MARION, Ky. – Fueled by 24 points at the foul line and some key three pointers, Crittenden County wiped out Union County 63-43 Saturday in a rematch of a game CCHS lost by eight early in the season at Morganfield.

Three Lady Rockets scored in double figures with Anna Boone leading the charge with 18 points. Elliot Evans added 16 and Jordyn Hodge a dozen against a veteran Bravettes squad that fell to 12-11.

Crittenden has won three of its last four and is now 15-11 on the season with four regular-season contests to go.

The Lady Rockets host Hopkins Central Tuesday at home in a rematch of last winter’s regional semifinal. Crittenden beat the Storm in November by eight at Morton’s Gap.

ROCKETS LOSE ON THE ROAD

ELKTON, Ky. – Todd Central kept visiting Crittenden County’s typical top scorers in check Saturday and rocked the Rockets 82-21 with a barrage of 13 pointers and rugged defense.
