Piedmont Baptist Church Honors Faithful Matriarch

Dozens of devoted members of Piedmont Baptist Church gathered early this month to honor Rebecca Washington. They came to the church to celebrate Washington’s 100th birthday Nov. 2. Many of them were part of her extended family; and only a few there couldn’t trace some kind of family or long-time close connection.

The Wildcats needed a big second half to pull away, and take the victory in game two of their season. Kentucky got out to a 16-8 lead early on, and looked like they would cruise, but then James Madison started hitting three-pointers, and shot their way back into it. Slow defensive rotations gave the Dukes open looks, and the score was tied at halftime. Things improved in the second half. The Cats began to make three-pointers of their own at an accelerated rate, and the defense started to close out on shooters.

Here's a look at whose stock is up after the win, and whose is down. Stock up: Alex Wilkins Wilkins committed two fouls in the first few minutes of the
