County girls basketball PotW (Dec. 15-18)

The Warren County 6–8 grade girls basketball league closed out the week before Christmas break with another stretch that highlighted just how deep and competitive county play has become. From Centertown’s continued dominance at the top to tight defensive battles and late-game execution elsewhere, the league again delivered a mix of statement wins and gritty performances.

Centertown remained unbeaten with convincing wins over Eastside and Boyd, Irving College continued to prove its poise in close games, Dibrell finally broke through in a low-scoring slugfest and Morrison stayed competitive against one of the league’s toughest schedules. Across the board, players stepped into bigger roles, made winning plays and helped define where their teams sit as the season heads toward the midpoint.

The Main Street Journal is proud to recognize the standout performers from Dec. 15–18 with our Girls Players of the Week, made possible thanks to Triple B Nursery, Crisp Springs Market, Prince HVAC, TEH Construction, Pioneer Lanes and Sara Collins with Tree City Realty.
