Each year, the GOWP is hosted and track athletes from four schools compete in track and field events.  G (Grant County), O (Owen County), W (Walton Verona) and P (Pendleton County) is a chance for these four schools to test their mettle against each other.

Walton won both the boys and girls events with PC finishing third in both.  Owen County was second and Grant finished fourth.

The Pendleton County High School tennis team took on St. Patrick this past week.

The boys team won with victories from Michael Antrobus, Trey Roseberry, and the doubles team of Clay Thompson and Kyle Ruber, who are now 2-1.

Over the first eleven games of the season, the Wildcats scored 66 runs and was averaging six runs per game, winning four games. With scoring, came confidence on the field and in the batter’s box. Big points for a young team that field four key seniors but also rely on four sophomores in key positions on the field and in the lineup.

Pendleton County's hometown Major League Baseball star, Nathan Andrew "Nate" Jones, began his second season as a relief pitcher with the Chicago White Sox on Monday, April 1, 2013. Below are brief details of his in-game activities for the week ending April 7th.

Linda Gregg earned the top spot and currently has 76 points.  Gary Oliver has now secured second place and has a total of 67 points.

Be sure to check back next week for pictures of the winners and to see the final top ten standings. Thanks for playing!

Each year, there is a transition as schools are looking for high-quality coaches to lead the athletes of their school. Pendleton County is no different and both PCHS and Sharp Middle School have openings in a variety of sports.

They are searching for coaches at Sharp for volleyball, cross country, cheerleading and basketball.  At PCHS, there are openings for girls basketball and cross country.

It's been a frustrating start to the softball season for the Ladycats for a number of reasons that range from bad weather to bad play on the diamond.

The uncooperative early spring weather has been quite the thorn in the side of the team, as just two scheduled games have actually been played out of a possible seven. Finding time to get a quality practice session has also been a challenge for first-yearhead coach Steven Peed.

The PCHS Navy Junior Reserve Officers Training Corps (NJROTC) cadets marched in the 2013 Cincinnati Reds Opening Day Parade on April 1. Chilly winds and temperatures did not deter the marchers and spectators. PCHS cadets were the only JROTC unit to march in this year’s parade.

So far this baseball season, it has mostly consisted of practices in a gym, too few and infrequent games and snow/cold weather.

One thing is for certain, the Wildcats are glad to see the warm weather and a time to get on their home field, get consistent practice and games and begin to progress looking toward district tournament and a chance to play in the 10th Region Tournament.

Games have been hard to get in throughout the first month of the season, but the Cats were able to play four varsity games in three days while also getting a JV doubleheader in during the same stretch. The number of games stretched the pitching staff but simply being on the field and playing baseball was a big positive for Pendleton.

The Cats varsity only picked up one win in the three-day stretch, in the middle versus Silver Grove, a 8-2 decision for starting pitcher Senior Jacob Partin.
