SCHS’ boys’ track team will be looking to improve from its ninth-place finish in 2009 at the KHSAA State 3A track meet Saturday at the University of Louisville.

Coming off an astounding second-place finish in the region, the Rockets have a good shot of doing so.

New University of Louisville head football coach Charlie Strong brought an enthusiastic message of hope to more than 300 fans attending the Shelbyville leg of the annual Cardinal Caravan on Tuesday at the Shelby County Fairgrounds.
