  • PREP TRACK: E'town, Central...

    In all sports, rivalries are essential. No matter the level of play, rivalries spice things up.

    Major League Baseball has Yankees-Red Sox and Cubs-Cardinals. In the National Football League, Cowboys-Redskins historically has been an intense rivalry. And in college sports, especially basketball, you can’t go wrong with North Carolina-Duke or Kentucky-Louisville.

    On the local level, rivalries exist between Elizabethtown and Central Hardin, North Hardin and John Hardin and LaRue County and Elizabethtown.
