Henderson County dismisses baseball Coach Nanthan Isenberg
Mistake on my part, should have said a few educators I know are very slow in admitting they may have made a mistake.

Henderson County dismisses baseball Coach Nanthan Isenberg
Interesting situation in this case. A lot of support for reinstating Coach Isenberg. Several hundred have signed a petition to that regard. The Super, principal and school board getting clobbered on social media since some interesting facts have come out. I think it's unlikely because educators and those on the board have a hard time admitting that they may have made a mistake. The only victims in this case are Coach Isenberg and his family.

Henderson County dismisses baseball Coach Nanthan Isenberg
That's exactly what he was told. They knew who there were going to hire before it was posted.

Henderson County dismisses baseball Coach Nanthan Isenberg
Coach had a 675 winning percentage 280-139-1 in his 11 years as coach. Four regional championships, 2 final fours, 1 state runner up BUT the Super wants a different direction. In reality three parents wanted a different direction. Ringleader devised a scheme to get rid of Isenberg and worked it to perfection, culminating with a player posting stuff on social media and the player recording the conversation with the coach when he called to inquire about the post etc. Evidently an edited version was released to those in charge and thus the dismissal. Isenberg had dismissed an asst. coach earlier in the week who was rumored to have been working behind his back all season. That coach was kin to the player. Isenberg's record speaks for itself and the number of kids he has prepared for the next level is substantial. I might add that he is well respected by his peers and umpires in the second region. If I was a player or parent I would be very concerned about the different direction.

Second Region Upset
Caldwell County defeats Union County 6-2 for the second region championship. This is the second year in a row the Tigers have advanced to the state tournament. They also beat the Braves last year in the regional final. Good luck in the state tourament.

Second Region Upset
Union defeats Livingston Central 9-8 and Caldwell County got by Henderson 5-3. These two will meet tomorrow night for the second year in a row for the regional title. The Tigers won last year and are heavy favorite tomorrow with the arms they have left. This will be Coach Robison's fourth regional final in the seven years he has coached and he has won two of them, continuing a new era in Union County Baseball.

Second Region Upset
Union County for the second year in a row sent Christian County home with a 6-5 upset win. CC with a regular season record of 24-9 compared to UC 16-21 had beat the Braves 12-2 in a regular season game. The big blow came in the top of the 6th with Union down 4-0, had runners on first and second with no outs. Coach Robison whom I think it's safe to say plays a lot of small ball but has been known to all of us to gamble on occasion did just that. Instead of giving Coy Burns the bunt sign he gave him the green light and he jacks it over the left field fence. All of us here assumed he would move the runners up with a bunt. Big day for Coy as he then came in to pitch Union out of a jam in the bottom of the 6th and get 2-3-4 out in the bottom of the 7th. Coach Robison doesn't get a whole lot of credit but he has revived the Union baseball program to a level not seen before. This is a very young team and the future is bright for the Union program.

Kerry Stovall back at Christian County
One thing is a given, regional winner will come from this district

Hopkinsville 73 Henderson County 67 (2nd Region Semifinals)
Good season for Hendo, sure they are already looking forward to next year, return everyone except Dawson. If team gets a little more discipline, will be hard to beat next year. As usual the 8th controls boys basketball and the 6th controls the girls side.

Christian County 87 University Heights 73
Same old story in the 8th, Regional winner for sure

District Upsets?!
The Storm thought they had a gimmie and didn't come to play, evidently.

Is Beechwood back?
As we all know, the biggest obstacle for Beechwood moved to 2a couple years ago.

Descendants of Custer got some revenge in this massacre

Henderson County 42 Daviess County 40
Big victory for the Colonels and Coach Boston - secured the2nd seed in the district and a home playoff game - rough week, only about half of team showed for practice Tuesday with fall break and all - amazing how some kids and parents just do not have the interest it takes to be successful - in addition several key players out with injuries, another key player missed I think because his brother getting married tomorrow night. Hard road for Hendo in the future with low interest and playoffs against the Louisville district every year. Coach Boston deserves lot of credit for this victory. Best of luck in the playoffs and in the future.

McCracken County vs. Ohio County
Easy romp, running clock early
-
McCracken County vs. Daviess County
Easy victory for McCracken. Will be interesting to see how the Tinsley kid does against McCracken. No doubt one of the best receivers in the state with very good hands, speed and just a very good all around athlete. Daviess County got a jewell when he transferred in from Union County.

Henderson County @ Ohio County
I too think that Coach Boston gets his first win. He has had a rough beginning but the future is bright. Getting some flack from fans but expected with a 0-5 state. Schedule has been brutal.

4A #3 South Warren at 4A #4 Franklin-Simpson
Would not sell the talent level short in Woodburn, until the Spartans won the 4A title last year, the only other state titles for the southern end of the county came in the early 30's when the Woodburn girls dominated the state in basketball with a runner up in 1930 and the state championships in 1931 and 1932

4A #3 South Warren at 4A #4 Franklin-Simpson
A short drive but a long trip home up 31-W for the Spartans

4A #3 South Warren at 4A #4 Franklin-Simpson
Who would have thought back in the day that there would be miracles in Richpond and exist a hotbed of football talent, among other sports as well. The Woodburn, Richpond and Rockfield area has always had talent but adding the area North of 242 has definitely helped.

Bowling Green 60 Warren Central 0
Hard to watch as an ole Dragon

Franklin-Simpson 14 Caldwell County 6
Great win for FS, with that intimidating big old Tiger overlooking the field, tough place to play. Tigers are 0-2 and have another tough game next week as they travel to North Hardin to take on the 2-0 Trojans

McCracken County/Warren Central Updates
It's shameful what has happened to this once proud football program, not sure the Dragons will ever be the Dragons of old

Rank the coaches in the Second Region
I agree with you on that broadcaster

Union County 7 Christian County 4
I'm just an ole country boy but I would say it's bad for Christian, Union plays another day maybe two more days and maybe even longer, Who Knows? As far as Caldwell, well sure they are the favorites as of now but don't write them in just yet. Isenberg is a savvy coach, king of the small ball and will pitch his ace tonight. I would not be surprised if Hendo pulls the upset.
