Nelson County rolled to a 66-41 win over Bardstown in Saturday’s boys’ 19th District championship, the Cardinals’ first district title since 2004.
The Cardinals improved to 18-8 on the year, and now await Sunday’s draw to determine their opponent in the 5th Region tournament, which Nelson County will host starting Wednesday. Nelson County enters the region tourney on a hot streak, having won 10 of its last 11 games.
Bardstown struggled to find good looks against a sticky Nelson defense, whereas the Cardinals were crisp and patient in their offensive execution. Demarcus Collins led the winners with 13 points, while Bryce Greer and Quentin Brooks added 12 apiece.
Nathan Hall’s 16 points led Bardstown, which fell to 8-16 and also advances to the 5th Region tournament. Check www.kystandard.com Sunday afternoon for region pairings and game times.
