  • Colonels come up short in...

    BUCKNER — Oldham County had thrice had the lead in the game, but with 1:53 left in the game, the Colonels trailed visiting Jeffersontown by four.

    On fourth down and 10, backup senior quarterback Stephen Farrow avoided a sack at midfield, scrambled to his left and fighting off a tackle, somehow got a pass off to senior wide receiver Kerry Smith, 20-yards downfield.

    But the ball fell off Smith’s fingertips and the Chargers ran out the clock for a 40-36 win, Friday.

North Oldham got past the Lady Cougars 2-0, but if it’s to advance further in the tournament at Bellarmine’s Knights Hall, there can’t be any letting off the throttle.

    In large part because of this rule and the referee’s call that Oldham County violated the ‘back pass’ rule, the Colonels’ season ended Monday night with a 2-0 loss to St. Xavier in the state sub-sectional round at Oldham County.
