| Jackson City High School Wins First Ever Soccer Game !!! 9-28-02 Jackson Ky. The Jackson City High School soccer program completed a feat never accomplished in their School's athletic history. On Saturday, Sept. 28th, they defeated Shelby Valley in double Overtime by the score of 4 - 3. Jackson, which lost a heartbreaking overtime game this past Thursday night, played another great game. Dutch Chapman scored 2 goals and Chad Clair also scored 2 goals, including the game winner in the 2nd overtime. It was a well deserved hard fought victory. Coach Chapman and the entire Jackson City team did a wonderful job. They have shown poise and great sportsmanship, despite this being their first season at High school soccer.

| Breathitt Loses Heartbreaker 3-12-04 Jackson, Ky. The Breathitt County Boys Basketball team, had their season brought to an abrupt halt as the Perry County Central Commodores defeated the Bobcats by 2 points. Breathitt fell behind early as P.C.C. jumped out to a 17 point halftime lead. Breathitt had cut the lead to 11 early in the 4th quarter. P.C.C. fought back the Bobcats as much as they could, but the Breathitt Bobcats would not go away. Breathitt trailing by 2 in the final seconds had the chance to tie the game or even win it on a last second shot, but it was not meant to be as the shot missed it's target. Congratulations to the 2003/2004 Breathitt County Bobcats on a great season! |
