I thought this was a for sure win for Owsley.

I thought this was a for sure win for Owsley.

 

Owls are going to have to pick it up. I had a feeling this game might be tough to win. I believe it was at Elliott County (the schedule just says 'Away', but it might be a tournament, not sure), and it's never easy to go out of region to play. Owsley needs some help for Izaiah Allen and Joey Grove, more balance scoring. They better get it together soon because early January they have a couple of powerhouse teams to face in Perry Central and North Laurel. After that they will face Lee County at home, Estill County in Irvine, and Hazard in the All A. They've already lost to the Bulldogs twice this year.
