In what started out as a defensive showdown in the first half with a half time score of Owsley County 16 and Jenkins 14, later turned to out to become Owsley County's 12 win of the season and propelled the Lady Owls into the semi finals of the 14th region All A classic at Breathitt County Friday night.

 

Owsley County and Jenkins could not seem to get any offense going in the first half and both teams played a very aggressive ball game. After Halftime the Lady Owls were able to outscore Jenkins by 8 points in the 3rd quarter and the Lady Owls defense stepped it up and forced several turnovers that Owsley was able to score off of to finish with a hard fought 22 point win.

Great job Lady Owls!!! Good luck Friday Night!!!:banana: :banana:

Nice win Owls!!! I like how the Owls controled the tempo of this game the way they wanted it! Good Luck Friday!

The Lady Owls turned it on in the 2nd half. Played some good defense. It's on to Breathitt now and who knows what might happen from there on. Owsley's been runner up 4 times in the All A region. Maybe this year they can get over the hump.

Those lady owls are looking good. Things look bright for a few years to come. I think the coaching staff has done an excellent job even if they don't win another game.
