Lady Rockets Basketball
Watching the Lady Rockets Basketball Game
by Lisa
On March 13, 2006, we went to Lincoln County where the Rockcastle County Lady Rockets play basketball. This was a very great accomplishment because they were in a new 12th Region for the first time. We made signs and the number 3. When they made a three point shot, we would hold up the signs. The game was a very close scoring game.
The Lady Rockets won this game and got to play in the final tournament game.
They were not expected to win any of the games in the region. On March 14, 2006, several of the fans decorated cars and followed the buses to Lincoln County High School in Stanford. They were playing Lincoln County so Lincoln had the home court advantage. The Rockcastle Girls started off very slow. They did not score for the first four minutes of the game. At the end of the first quarter the score was only 10 to 9, Lincoln was ahead at this point. The crowd was on their feet though most of the game. By half time the score was 19 to 19. Then in the third quarter the Lady Rockets came out of the locker room and started scoring and never looked back. The Lincoln County fan looked like they were in disbelief and sad. The Lady Rocket had won the 12th Region and are going to the Sweet Sixteen Tournament for the third straight year.
There were lots of fans that stayed and watched the girls cut down the nets. Then the girls went and got dressed. The fans stayed and followed them home. At the Lincoln Rockcastle County line, the Brodhead Fire Dept. met the buses and led them though Brodhead. About half way to Mount Vernon, the Mount Vernon Fire Dept. took over. We followed them through Mount Vernon and back to the high school where they had a pep rally. Then everyone went home for the night.
Because the girls are going to the tournament, there will not be school in Rockcastle on Wednesday. They will have a good chance of winning their first game in the tournament. My sons and I are planning to go. Some people do not enjoy watching children play sports but I really enjoy watching sports.
03.15.2006 :: Congratulations Lady Rockets! The next game will be held at Diddle Arena in Bowling Green on March 22nd at 1:30 CST where the girls will take on Letcher County Central.
