Just to show how old I and the class of 1974 are getting, there wasn't a girls' basketball team when we graduated in 1974.
The sport which was halted decades earlier (matter of fact Sue Smith's mother was a stand-out) started back again for the 1974-75 campaign.
At least one local young lady didn't get a chance to display her skills while still in high school.
She did go on to play at Western Kentucky University and probably goes down as one of the best female athletes ever produced in Taylor County.
