Groups organize tornado relief efforts
The Morehead News
Several students have requested that we at RCSHS do something to help our
Morgan County friends, family, and neighbors. There are about a thousand
students in this building and 100 adult personnel. If we gave just $1.00 each, we
would be able to contribute $1100 dollars in aide.
In addition to clothing and food that we might normally think of, they are in
need of items such as flashlights, batteries, soap, hand sanitizer, toiletries, cleaning
supplies, and large/extra large trash bags.
We will begin collecting money and other items today. Our monetary goal
is $1100. Our goal for donations is to fill the band’s trailer. We would like to
reach our goal by this Friday.
We know that currently, traffic in and out of Morgan County is very limited,
but by Friday, we might be able to send a small delegation of students to deliver
the donations to the principal of Morgan County High School.
Donations will be accepted at lunch throughout the week. In return for your
donation your name will be added to our sponsor banner which will be given to the
principal and students at Morgan County High School.
136 Student Athletes at RCSHS qualify for
Academic All-State!

Friday night one of our athletes carved a spot in history for himself. Adam
Wing eclipsed the 1000 rebound mark and placed himself into a club that few have
ever been, if any, in Rowan County History because Adam is also a member of
the1000 point club (he's got somewhere around 1500 points by now)!! So as we
check history (and former coaches) to see if there are any other members, we might
also try to think of a name for this club. 2K? – (sounds like the day computers were
supposed to crash)! The Double K? – (sounds like a quick stop grocery store)! The
Gold Wing club? – (sounds like a motorcycle gang of old men riding Hondas)!
Send (better) ideas to shawn.thacker@rowan.kyschools.us . JOIN US
THURSDAY AS COACH THACKER MAKES A SPECIAL
PRESENTATION TO THIS DIVISION I SIGNEE!!!!
There is still no report of anyone else in Rowan County History who has
achieved both honors (AS OF June 5, 2012).

Lady Vikings ‘Taylor made’ in Bluegrass finals
By Grant Stevens - Staff WriterThe Morehead News
February 6, 2012
Dishing the Weekly Dime: Do Rowan's girls have
16th's top player?
Aaron SnyderThe Independent
ASHLAND — How is it possible for a three-time region champion in four seasons to fly under the radar?
Answer: If they didn’t win last season.
What have you done for me lately? It’s that ever-present notion which placed Rowan County’s girls
squarely on the backburner before this season began.
Coaches voted the Lady Vikings No. 3 in the 16th Region in The Independent’s preseason poll, but
Rowan County enters this week with the best overall record in the region, at 19-3. The Lady Vikings have
won 14 of their last 15 games.
Rowan County coach Scott Tackett believes he possesses a Player of the Year candidate to whom much
of the credit should be directed.
“She’s put us on her back in a couple games,” Tackett said.
Nine games of 20 or more points, a 17.7 points per game average, a field goal percentage of 46, an
assists/game average of 4.6, a rebounding clip of 4.2 a contest and three steals per game gives Tackett
reason to call stat sheet-stuffing point guard Taylor Lewis “a candidate for Player of the Year.”
Nearing the end of his fifth season, Tackett is 113-31 with three regional championship trophies and a
state final four appearance, but he’s yet to coach a Player of the Year.
Lewis knows all about flying under the radar. In the aforementioned preseason poll, Lewis received zero
votes as a Top 10 player in the region.
Last season, situations arose which left Lewis torn between friendships and her basketball team.
“We had some who were not really good team players,” Tackett said. “She tried to be loyal to her friends
and to the team as well. Regardless of what was going on, Taylor continued to compete.”
Lewis started 15 games as a sophomore before becoming a full-time starter as a junior.
This season, she’s blossomed into a team leader.
“She’s done a tremendous job, and she continues to get better,” Tackett said. “The team feeds off of
Taylor’s energy.”
The 5-foot-5 senior has two 26-point games, including one which paved the way to a title-game defeat of
East Carter in the Queen of the Bluegrass, and another in one of two Lady Vikings victories over talented
61st District rival Fleming County.
“She’s a handful in the open floor, and absolutely fearless going to the rim,” Tackett said.
Lewis is second in the region in attempts from the foul line, where she shoots 65 percent.
Tackett admitted he and his staff thought 16-6 or 17-5 would be Rowan County’s record by the first full
week of February.
Now, he believes his Lady Vikings have the ability to return to his favorite March destination after a oneyear hiatus, Bowling Green.
“Ashland’s the runaway prohibitive favorite, but we feel like we have a chance,” Tackett said. “We’ve
played 22 games and haven’t yet given up 1,000 points. This team’s bought in defensively.
“We’ll find out more this week,” he added.
East Carter comes to Morehead tonight, while Ashland awaits for the first of a girl-boy doubleheader on
Tuesday at Anderson Gym. Tip-off is set for 6 p.m.

GIRLS BASKETBALL
The girls finished their season with a great record 25-7. If you’ve been to a game this
year then these girls won your heart! This group worked and played so hard that not only were
they fun to watch, but we also expected them to win every game! When parents and fans begin to
expect that, you know your program is moving in the right direction!! With that, though, losses
hurt a whole lot more. That was evident when the girls fell short in the semifinals to Ashland, the
eventual region champion.
Congratulations to Catherine Duff and Taylor Lewis were named to the All-Tournament team.

But much to everyone’s surprise, I took the microphone and appealed to
the kids, who wouldn’t give in. I asked if we were on the same team, and
when they still wouldn’t give in, I jerked off my hoodie and showed my
North Laurel T-Shirt!!
We had a blast!!

Williams named new Lady Vikings head
coach
By Grant Stevens - Sports EditorThe Morehead News
June 1, 2012 — After nearly a month without a leader, the Rowan County Lady Vikings’
basketball program finally found its new leader on Thursday.
Jennifer Williams, a former Division III player and native of Ohio, packs quite the
resume, including a successful six-year run as the head coach of Mars Hill College in
Mars Hill, N.C.
After several days of deliberation, the 28-year-old Williams decided to leave her position
at Mars Hill for the opportunity to take the helm at Rowan County, a challenge the young
coach says she is most looking forward to.
“I’m really excited about it,” Williams said. “I have heard about what a great community
this is and how much pride they take in their sports. To be able to resign from my job
down there and be able to land a job like this…I couldn’t have asked for a better
situation.”
The new job also happened to work out perfectly as it reunites Williams with her
husband, Morehad State Softball Head Coach David Williams.
Jennifer Williams said Rowan County is a top-tier school system, and it is a place that
she and her husband hope to settle into.
“When my husband got the job at MSU, my mom called and told me what a great school
system Rowan County has,” Williams said. “That’s a typical mom to conduct research on
the education (laughing). But I feel education is important, we hope to plant roots here in
the community, and start a family here in Morehead.”
With little time to prepare for summer basketball sessions, the new Lady Viking
commander said it’s going to be quick turnaround to summer ball, which is set to begin
next week.
“I am a coach that believes you must be able to adjust your playing style to the strengths
of your players,” Williams said. “Summer ball is set to begin soon and I am in the
process of trying to put together my staff. I’m looking at some top quality people to
assist, but right now it’s just me, and it’s most important for me to get to know my
players over the next few weeks.”
Williams closed with a set of defined goals for the 2012-2013 season.
“I want my girls to represent Rowan County Senior High School with integrity and
class,” Williams said. “As a coach, I want to see these girls improve their game every day
from start to finish. As far as giving a goal as to what kind of record we’re seeking, I
can’t really say yet, because I am still learning about my players.”
Williams continued, emphasizing the importance of her team getting better.
“Of course we want to win and that is the ultimate goal. Improvement throughout the
season is what I am looking for, and if we are the same team in March that we are in
June, then I haven’t done my job.”

New sport rolls into RCSHS
By Cody Evans - Staff WriterThe Morehead News
We were seeded as team 9th in the brackets for the Regional’s. We
defeated the number 8 seed George Rogers Clark 3 matches to 0. We
then faced number 1 seed Fleming and were defeated 3-0.
In singles action, Kyle Barnhart made the first cut from 40 bowlers to
top 8, he was number four at that point. He then went on to make the
top 5 in the second cut. In the bowl off with the number four bowler he
threw the ball perfectly but the pins did not fall our way. He was
defeated. Had he won that he would have gone to the state singles
tournament. Coach Greg Hignite spoke about the season, “Given the
shortened season, I am very proud of how our team performed in the
tournament.”

HOMECOMING ACTIVITIES!!
Just had a very nice chat with Paul Ousley and we ARE in year 50!! We are putting
him and his wife on the pass list and recognizing him at the beginning of the game
(Hopefully right before kickoff, but maybe right after). During the chat I made a
few notes so we will have a few nice words to go with the recognition. Should be
pretty nice!!
Monday - Vikings Ambush The Colts! Wear Camo
Tuesday - Watch out for the Vikings! Wear the brightest
color in your closet.
Wednesday - Hats off to the Vikings! Hat day/Nerd Day
Thursday - Got Viking Fever? Character Day. (Teachers
will dress as Doctors and Nurses We have a few extra
lab coats in the Science dept.) - The kids will be
"catching" the fever today!
Friday - I am a Viking! Wear Green or White
Pep Rally!!
Mark receives a game Jersey from the seniors and coach!!
1. Homecoming activities will be awesome! Friday Night will begin
with Linda Bradley’s mascot (I mean husband) being flown in by
helicopter to deliver the game ball. We are going to land on the far
side of the soccer field and the section will be guarded for safety.
He will be in full Viking attire and will run out, hopefully, as the
players reach the field.
2. We are going to start a little tradition with the peewee and middle
school to have honorary captains, (much like Fleming County did
with adults). We want to start getting the youngins excited about
the high school!!
(Relationship Builders) First, Shannon Malone for arranging for "Viddar
the Victorious" to be flown to the Homecoming game carrying the game
ball. Thank you to P.H.I for the donation of the helicopter and the pilot!
Next, thank you to James Bradley for dressing as Viddar the Victorious,
lead the team onto the field, and bringing the game ball.
Next, thank you to the coaches of the peewee and middle school football
teams for selecting honorary captains who went to midfield for the
pregame coin flip!
Those players were:
Steelers …… #2 Will Cox
Cowboys …… #88 Austin Fannin
Bengals …… #28 Chad Hall
Colts ……
#21 Mathew Gagliano
7th Grade
#18 Spencer Price
8th Grade
#10 Devin Helvey
A BIG Thank you goes out to Coach Paul Ousley for starting
football in Rowan County 50 years ago!!!
Another thank you must go to Mr. Wing for playing
the National Anthem solo so beautifully!
The former Queen, Haley McCormick, arrives to
crown our new Queen Cortlin Ison!!
The Queen and her court!
No Homecoming is complete without a dance!!
Finally, thank you to the following people who provided items
for gift bags for the young captains:
Lucy Moore
Kellyn Gussler
Brenda Ballard
Because of all of these people, the pregame
for the RCSHS Homecoming game went
flawlessly! Thanks everyone
