Rockets outmanned at Paducah Tilghman

PADUCAH, Ky. – Playing on the road at Paducah Tilghman, Crittenden County was no match for the athleticism of the Blue Tornado as the Rockets fell 82-30.

Tilghman raced out to a 21-10 lead early although a couple of threes in the first period by Coby LaRue and Drake Young helped CCHS keep some sort of pace for a while. By halftime, though, the Tornado had spun out of control.

Young and LaRue finished with three treys apiece and they led the team in scoring with 13 and 9 points, respectively. They have consistently been among the team's top scorers, both averaging seven points a game and scoring more of late. Cameron Belcher leads the team in scoring average.

The Rockets host Caldwell County tonight in Marion.
