Former Apollo standout Eli Wright has had quite the journey since his days in Owensboro. His latest stop? Western Kentucky University where he will be eligible to play this upcoming season.

You'll see two Owensboro natives in the tournament, one a standout player, the other a journeyman head coach.

I have, to be honest, I don't really watch many sports on television.  However, when the CATS play my house is buzzing with loud yells, jumping up and down, and several other emotions, and that is just from my husband, Joe.  While watching the game last night he shared with me that two players from Owensboro were playing for Mississippi State.  I had to tune in and watch!
