  • First tourney not bad, but cold

    Sunday, March 23, was the first tournament for the Mid-KY Bass Anglers 2014 season.

    The turnout was good with 10 boats and 19 anglers. One guy fishing by himself gave us the odd number of anglers.

    Not bad for a tournament held on a frigid March day! It was bitter cold, but it neither rained nor snowed, so we didn’t complain “too” much.

  • SCC to offer athletic training program in the fall semester 2014

    Beginning in August of 2014, students will have a new opportunity at St. Catharine College.
    Athletic training, a close relative to physical therapy, will be the newest addition to St. Catharine College’s academic offerings.
    “We already have a solid athletic foundation here at the college so it was a natural fit to add a health science field that is heavily involved in athletics,” Justin Farr, St. Catharine College sports information director and founder of the athletic training program, said.
