Minds in Clinton County are turned to basketball as we continued through the 2014-15 season, and two new milestone numbers were reached and surpassed in recent games. New all-time leading boys’ basketball scorer Keifer Dalton continues to add to his scoring total, surpassing the 2000 point mark in the All ‘A’ Classic regional tournament 79-43 win against Todd County Central on Monday night in Elkton. In the Bulldogs’ 68-45 win last week over Cumberland County in Burkesville, head boys’ coach Todd Messer led his team to his 200th career victory, 165 of which have been won during his nine seasons at Clinton County.

Both the Lady Bulldogs and the Bulldogs are chasing an All ‘A’ Classic 4th Region championship title this week, with the Lady Bulldogs, 18-3, facing Cumberland County on Wednesday night in Burkesville in a 7:45 p.m. tip-off game, while the Bulldogs, 14-6, will face Cumberland County in All ‘A’ semi-final competition at Burkesville on Thursday night in a game set to begin at about 7:30 p.m.
