FRANKTON — In the previous 17 Madison County softball tournaments, Pendleton Heights had reigned supreme 13 times while four schools — including Lapel a year ago — managed to break through with one title each. In the 18th and final iteration of the tournament championship game, the one guarantee was that both participants had one last chance to join the one-timer club. kAmu@C E96 D64@?5 E:>6 :? 2D >2?J 52JD[ H:E9 #:=6J %9@>2D D6CG:?8 2D E96 @776?D:G6 42E2=JDE 2?5 qCJ?=66 wF>A9C:6D D9FEE:?8 5@H?

LAPEL — Wednesday’s second round game of the Nick Muller Memorial baseball tournament figured to be a tough matchup for both teams as 2A 10th-ranked Lapel hosted a winless Anderson Prep squad. After all, the last meeting was a 39-1 Bulldogs win two years ago in the same tournament. kAms2C= vFDE:? 9:E 2 E9C66\CF? EC:A=6 2?5 z2: }6H>2?

Lapel opens title defense with rout of Argylls

LAPEL — At the outset of Tuesday’s Madison County Softball Tournament first round game, the Lapel Bulldogs looked more like a group of kids fresh off their spring break than the top-ranked team in the state in Class 2A. But after a shaky start spotted their 10th-ranked opponent a four-run lead, it did not take long for the Bulldogs to overcome their jet lag. kAmpG2 tG6C>2? 5@F3=65 EH:46 2?5 5C@G6 :?

Winning Growth: Elwood sweeps season-opening three-way meet at home

1 week ago | sports.yahoo.com | Rob Hunt

ELWOOD — For small school golf programs like Elwood and Daleville, wins and losses take a secondary role. The larger goal is to get more kids involved and excited about the game, a sport that they can continue to play for the rest of their lives. There is also a family component to the game, rarely spotlighted more than over the weekend as golf enthusiasts everywhere were locked in for the drama from Augusta National at The Masters.
2025 Girls Basketball Athletes of the Year: Jacklynn Hosier and Kaycie Warfel

1 week ago | sports.yahoo.com | Rob Hunt

Trying to separate the careers of Jacklynn Hosier from Alexandria and Kaycie Warfel of Pendleton Heights is a fool’s errand. They are almost perfect mirror images of each other. Hosier scored 25.2 points per game this year while Warfel averaged 23.3. Both led their team in steals, Hosier with 7.4 per game and Warfel with 5.2. Both also helped their programs end long postseason droughts with sectional championships.
Allison’s dominance lifts Lions past Jets

ANDERSON — Less than 24 hours after a long drive home from an 18-run loss, Liberty Christian’s baseball team had to regroup for a meeting with its crosstown rivals from Anderson Prep Academy in the season opener for the Jets. Of course, in the world of baseball, nothing serves to salve those wounds quite like a dominant outing from the next day’s starting pitcher.
