By Peter W. Zubaty

North Hardin’s bulk on the boards was too much for a spirited Bardstown club to overcome Thursday as the Trojans battered the Tigers on the glass, 45-30, and pulled away late to advance to the 5th Region semifinals with a 72-61 win.

North Hardin (25-4) hit five three-pointers in the first quarter in building a 25-12 lead. That lead stretched out to 33-18 early in the second quarter, but the Tigers closed out the half on a hot streak and went into the locker room with a five-point margin.

The Trojans were able to build their lead back up to double digits in the third quarter, and held off several late charges by the Tigers, who could never get closer than eight in the fourth quarter.

James Berry’s 25 points and 12 rebounds led North Hardin, and Nigel Phelps added 19 points and seven boards.

For Bardstown, Nathan Hall led the way with 17 (13 after halftime), while Keaton Hall had 14, all in the first half. Nick McCarty pitched in 10. The Tigers’ season finishes at 8-17.
