Union County’s homecoming was all set for Friday until Helene had different plans. Traces of the hurricane came to the area and postponed dozens of games around Indiana. The Patriots’ tilt with Union City was one of those and the two sides kicked off Saturday afternoon in misty conditions.
GREENSBURG – The rain was coming down in sheets at times Friday night, thanks to traces of Hurricane Helene, but it wasn’t nearly enough to deter the Franklin County Wildcats from hanging a 17th-straight loss on the Greensburg Pirates.
On the first rainy Friday of the season, the Lawrenceburg Tigers came into the Dawg Pound and pitched a 24-0 shutout against Batesville. It was the Bulldogs’ first time going scoreless since last year’s East Central game.
After just missing out on a team state final appearance last fall, the Batesville Lady Bulldogs upped their game Monday at Franklin’s Legends Golf Club to place runner-up in regional play and move on to the IHSAA championship rounds at Carmel’s Prairie View this weekend. It’s the third trip to the finals for BHS in the last four years.
LAPEL - The first rainy Friday of the season, thanks to traces of Hurricane Helene, played to visiting Rushville’s advantage more so than host Lapel on the Bulldogs’ turf field in Madison County.
Thursday night was another step in Franklin County’s bid to update the comprehensive plan in matters related to potential solar - or Alternative Energy Systems (AES) - installations, primarily the possibility of rezoning prime agricultural land in Bath and Springfield townships to accommodate the alternative sources.
