The Rockets travel up I-75 on Tuesday night to take on the Engineers of Estill County in a boy/girl double header. Girls will start at 6 PM with the boys following.

 

Both teams come into this game looking to get their first win. Rockcastle County is coming off a 59-48 loss at home to Lincoln county while Estill county is coming off two heart breaking losses. 51-46 at home to Jackson county and a 64-60 loss at home to Madison Southern.

 

Estill is 6-4 against the Rockets dating back to the 97-98 season.

I think if Estill comes to play like they did for about 3 quarters of the game against Madison Southern then they should be in good shape, if they don't then it could be another loss for the Engineers.

 

Just seen that Rockcastle returns most of everyone from a year ago so that will make the mountain Estill has to climb a little rougher.
