High school basketball season starts across the Commonweath tonight though none of the local teams play until Tuesday.
Henderson County’s boys and new head coach Tyler Smithhart travel across the river for the traditional season-opener with Evansville Memorial.
That series has become a home-and-home affair in recent years, which I like. As hard as it is for Henderson County to find opponents, it’s a good thing to play the Tigers twice. The matchup always draws a nice crowd and generally with a couple of Henderson players on the Memorial roster, the game always draws plenty of interest.
