Crittenden boys and girls sweep Union
Guess gets 30 in pivotal 2nd Region matchup
MARION, Ky. – In an interesting Second Region matchup, Crittenden County led from start to finish Tuesday at home, beateing Union County 49-41.
The Lady Rockets held off a late flurry of offense and defensive pressure from the Bravettes, who are now 5-2.
CCHS senior Taylor Guess scored 30 points to lead the Lady Rockets to their fifth straight win and a 5-1 mark overall.
Crittenden and Union are among the region’s better teams, and the Bravettes had already beaten Madisonville this season.
The Lady Rockets were ahead by a dozen in the first half before Union County drew within a point late in the third period. Some key takeaways and rebounds helped the Rocket girls recover and win by eight.
CCHS was 15-of-25 from the floor, making 5-of-15 from long range and shot 50 percent on two-point fielders. Union was 17-for-38 from the floor, but couldn’t keep pace at the line where CCHS rang up 14 points to the Bravettes’ three.
Guess gets 40 at Lyon County
Senior Taylor Guess scored a career-high 40 points as the Lady Rockets improved to 2-0 in Fifth District action on Friday, beating Lyon County 63-40.
Crittenden County’s defense set the tone early as the Rocket girls raced out to a 14-4 lead only to have it disappear just before the half when Lyon County found some offensive rhythm in its half-court game.
Guess shredded the Lyons with pinpointing shooting across the board. She scored 10 at the line and hit 14 fielders, including a pair of threes.
CCHS, which has now defeated the Lady Lyons in 10 of the 11 tries, improved to 4-1 overall. Lyon fell to 2-2 and 0-1 in the district.

Champion, Morgeson carry big load at Union
MORGANFIELD, KY. – Crittenden County’s Travis Champion and Preston Morgeson delivered the knockout blow, playing a spirited second half as the Rockets came from behind to beat Union County 65-63 on the road.
Champion had 19 of his game-high 29 points in the second half and Morgeson had nine in the pivotal third period when the Rockets took the lead for good after trailing by 11 in the first period.
CCHS snapped a three-game losing streak and improved to 3-4 by beating the Braves for just the fifth time in the last 20 meetings.
It was a physical game that went down to the wire.
Champion got nine of his points at the foul as CCHS scored 17 from the stripe compared to Union’s nine. The Braves are now 1-3.
Lyon too much for Rockets
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. Perry’s mother and father are both Crittenden County graduates.
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 fell to 1-1 in Fifth District action. Lyon chipped up to 4-1 overall and 1-0 in league play. Elsewhere in the district Trigg County beat Livingston Central 78-53.
Crittenden plays at Trigg County Friday to complete the first round of district action.

Rockets get best of CCHS in physical game
MARION, Ky. – For about a half, the Rockets kept the game close Tuesday at home against Webster before the Trojans physical play won the battle.
Champion scored 20 for the Rockets.
Play was a bit chippy at times, and there were technicals called on players from each team during the middle part of the contest.
The road doesn’t get any easier. On Friday CCHS will play a district game at Lyon County against perhaps the region’s top team.

Guess scores 2,000th career point
Two grand and counting!
Lady Rocket senior Taylor Guess dropped 26 Tuesday night in a win at Caldwell County, ringing up her 2,000th career point in the third quarter.
In transition, Guess pulled up from the wing for a nothing-but-net trey to make her just the sixth female in Fifth District history to reach the milestone. She is already Crittenden County’s all-time leading scorer and will likely become the most prolific scorer in district history later this season. She needs just under 350 more points to catch Lyon County’s Saundra Oliver, who scored 2,351 in a career that ended in 1981.
CCHS easily beat Caldwell on the road 60-41.
