The Indiana-Kentucky All-Star game is a tradition that dates back long before it was born. And it’s a tradition that I have always known and enjoyed.
The annual game dates back to 1940, and this year will be the 74th meeting between the boys teams. Although crowds have been much fewer lately, just like state championship weekend, it still is a big deal in this …

For sports fans, “Hoosiers” is high atop the list of best movies of all-time. I know it’s mine. The 1986 film, based on the small Milan High School winning the 1954 Indiana state championship, is a classic.

Now, Nored is trading in the uniform for a suit but he will remain a Bulldog…a Brownsburg Bulldog. Wednesday Morning, he was approved by the Brownsburg Board of Trustees and officially named head coach.…
INDIANAPOLIS — A quick look at the Carmel Greyhounds basketball team perhaps leaves a lot to be desired.
As they take the court to begin the game, they boast three guards, all 6’0 or smaller. They don’t have a 7’0 big man, or even one at 6’8. But when the ball is tipped, and the game begins, all of those questions are soon thrown away.…
