LCA Will Evans

Tough loss for the Indians.

Seems Hendrix still played through his injury in this one and contributed what he could via the Montgomery County radio station. With him healthy I feel the Indians are a different team. Rash seemed to control the game for the Indians and keep them at the high level they played at in the second half. Evans for LCA was a very big presence in this game and in the end was more than likely the deciding factor for the Eagles. Great game via the radio for me to listen to some exciting Kentucky basketball.
