A select group of sophomores who attend school in Shelby County will have the opportunity to participate in the Young Leaders Institute, a leadership development class coordinated through the Shelby County Chamber of Commerce.

The program is open to students who attend Shelby County Public Schools and Cornerstone Christian Academy - or who live in Shelby County and attend a neighboring private school or home school.

The Shelby County baseball team lost a close game Tuesday night, then turned a close game into a blowout on Wednesday night.

The Rockets fell, 4-2, to Whitefield Academy on Tuesday before bombing Bethlehem, 10-3, the next night.

The Rockets plated two runs in the first two innings, but that would be all the offense they could muster against the visiting Wildcats (2-0) and starter Cameron Smith. 

The Collins softball team didn’t have much time on its new field in the preseason, but the Titans made themselves right at home Tuesday.

Kara Owens’ RBI double in the bottom of the seventh inning gave Collins a 5-4 victory over Bullitt Central in its home opener.

“It was very exciting to get the first win on our home field,” said senior center fielder Kristina Gramig, who scored the game-winning run.

While he was weaving through Washington D.C.'s political circles, Michael Biagi said he always knew he wanted to come back to Kentucky.

Growing up in Shelbyville, he knew the commonwealth would some day be his long-term home.

Now, returning from political stomping grounds, Biagi has found a spot as the Louisville-area field representative for Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-Kentucky).

He didn't know it then as a young child, but his future was right out there in front of him.

Actually, it was on the same block.
