Blue Raiders hold Bears to just 80 total yards By Kyrin Mayfield For just the third time in program history, the Lindsey Wilson football team kept their opponent off the scoreboard with a 49-0 route over Pikeville (KY) on Friday at Blue Raider Stadium. The victory marks the Blue Raiders eighth straight season-opening win. After the opening kickoff, the Bears marched down to the Blue Raiders 32-yard line before Lindsey Wilson held Pikeville to four consecutive plays with no gain and received possession after a turnover on downs. Eleven plays later, Jaylen Boyd juked his way into the endzone from three yards out to give the Blue Raiders an early 7-0 lead and the only score of the first 15 minutes. That touchdown was the beginning of 49 unanswered points for Lindsey Wilson as the team crossed the goal line twice in each of the next three quarters.

KYTC crews deploying Sunday morning for anti-icing operations By Wes Watt Bowling Green, KY - The snow & ice operations team for Kentucky Transportation Cabinet District 3--which serves counties including Barren, Edmonson, Metcalfe, Monroe, and Warren Counties--has ordered anti-icing operations to begin Sunday morning in preparation of a possible winter weather system moving through the area beginning Sunday night. Trucks will be putting down brine on major routes and motorists are asked to give the anti-icing vehicles plenty of space. Brine is a mixture of salt, water and liquid calcium that coats the roadway which lowers the freezing temperatures of the road. Anti-icing can prolong the time it takes for ice to form on the roadway giving extra time for salt trucks to put out salt.
