Friday night the Spencer County Bears hosted their neighbors, the Shelby County Rockets, in a Class 4A first round matchup and the Kroger KSR Game of the Week. The KSR crew made the trip to Spencer County for the first time and received a nice warm, welcome from the fine folks in Taylorsville.
Coming off of their best season since 2015, the Bears were crowned Class 4A District 3 champions after an impressive 9-1 regular season. The Bears were led by a three-headed monster consisting of junior Kellen Marksbury and seniors Wade Hutt and Camden Cardwell. This trio combined for 2,466 yards rushing and 34 rushing touchdowns in only 10 regular season games.
