  • Turnovers cost Commodores

    LEOPOLD - Perry Central committed 35 turnovers in a 55-43 girls basketball loss to Heritage Hills Thursday.

    "Defensively it was probably our best effort of the year," said Perry Central Coach Sarah Spindler. "But with that many turnovers, it's going to be hard to beat anybody.

    "Most of them were unforced - passes from bad angles, dribbling off our foot."

    When the Commodores didn't turn the ball over, they shot decently, hitting 42.2 percent from the field.

  • Nuetzel starred for Tell City in...

    If you were on a committee to elect members of a school's athletic hall of fame, you might be reluctant to vote for a basketball player who averaged 7.9 points per game.

    You would probably be much more willing to vote for someone who was the leading scorer on a sectional championship team and went on to be a starter for a Big Ten Conference championship team as a sophomore in college.

    But what if I told you those two examples are actually the same player?
