Prior to Friday's loss, Henderson County had gone 45 straight games without giving up that many points. Approaching milestones Haile and Gibson are both closing in on milestones. Haile is just three wins away from his 300th career victory, which could come as early as the Jan. 15 game at Muhlenberg South. Including his 17 seasons as Webster County's girls coach, Gibson has 440 career victories, just 10 shy of 450, which could be reached by the end of the regular season. The Kentucky Association of Basketball Coaches is accepting votes for its all-time state tournament teams.
Fans can vote on the Internet for the top state tournament players of all time.
The ballots aren't without local flavor as well. Rachel Byars, who helped Union County to the 1996 state title, is on the girls ballot. Some other names on the ballot that might ring a bell are Bob Mulcahy, Howard Crittenden, Bobby Rascoe, Jim Hicks, Justin Sharp, Kenny Higgs, Jerry Thurston, Kenny Hart, Charles Nance, Dwight Higgs, Wendell Quarles, Lamont Ware, Darren Allaway, Dwight Smith and Gene Pendleton. It's going to fun to see who makes these teams. What makes it even better is that fans across the state have the opportunity to vote.
