Owsley County played their second and final scrimmage of the preseason Wednesday. The game was at Floyd Central. The Lady Owls open their season at Hazard on Dec 2.
The Lady Owls controlled the first half of the 20 minute half setup (with running clock) and led 30-24 at halftime. But Floyd Central came back and won the second half and the game 53-47.
Owsley wore down the last 10 minutes of the game in the fast pace action. They only dressed 7 players from a roster of 12 due to the flu bug.
Both teams looked impressive. I will note that the 15th region allows for a physical brand of basketball and the body checking and aggressive play finally wore down the thin roster Lady Owls, who also had 2 starters, Lynch and Smith, just recovering from flu. I’m sure Floyd Central had some girls that’s been affected by flu as well, as it has been an issue in most schools the past month.
Owsley County will travel to Floyd Central for a regular season game on Jan 28.
