But The Golden Lions’ had other plans.

With Collins girls’ soccer leading 1-0 for the majority of Monday’s match, Eastern put in a goal late to snatch a 1-1 stalemate from the jaws of defeat.

The Titans got on the board in the middle of the first half, as junior forward Issabella Trevino tapped the ball past Eastern’s fallen keeper to score Collins’ only goal of the game.

Holly Spade with AT&T Kentucky shared with the Shelbyville City Council an opportunity to partner on plans for the city to become a Fiber Ready Designation.

“We go into the industrial park just to announce formally and acknowledge formally that the park is fiber ready and has state of the art fiber in the ground at the site.”

The designation was specifically related to the Midland Trail Industrial Park and will provide technology capable of transmitting high-bandwidth communications from both existing and future industrial sites.

The City of Shelbyville is seeking proposals from artists interested in creating commissioned public art to be displayed in mural form on buildings in downtown Shelbyville.

Eilene Collins, director of Shelby Main Street, said she feels the project will enhance our downtown region.

Collins said the idea has been pondered by various individuals and groups, including the Shelby Main Street Design Committee, for some time but the financial means to back the specific project was not available until recently.
