MORE BASKETBALL SCHEDULE CHANGES: Grundy County game on Feb. 2 will be girls only

As Thunder Radio sports announced yesterday, there are several changes in the Central High School Basketball sports calendar ahead.

Now add one more change to that list.

On Tuesday, Feb. 2, Coffee County was scheduled to host Grundy County in a girls-boys double header. That will now be a girls only contest after the Grundy County boys backed out of the game. The Lady Raiders will host Grundy County at 6 p.m. and the game will be broadcast live on Thunder Radio, beginning with pregame at 5:45 p.m. The Lady Raiders will celebrate senior night.

Meanwhile, the boys basketball team, cheerleaders and dance team members will celebrate senior night on Monday, Feb. 8 when Lincoln County’s girls and boys travel to Manchester. As always, those games will be broadcast live on Thunder Radio.

Coffee County’s basketball schedule has another shakeup coming due to COVID-19 changes and shifts with other district teams.

This upcoming Friday, Jan. 29, both Lady Raider and Red Raiders were scheduled to host Shelbyville. Instead, it will be a boys only contest. The junior varsity will play at 4 p.m. with the varsity set to hit the floor at 6 p.m. at Joe Frank Patch Memorial Gymnasium. You can hear the varsity Red Raider game live on Thunder Radio.

Both teams will travel to Warren County Monday, Feb. 1 in a regularly scheduled contest with tip off at 6 p.m. Tuesday, Feb. 2, both teams were supposed to host Grundy County beginning at 6 p.m. for senior night. However, that will now be a girls only contest beginning at 6 p.m. and you can hear it live on Thunder Radio.

Saturday, Feb. 6, the Raider boys will travel to Franklin County to take on the Rebels in a makeup game from Tuesday, Jan. 26. Franklin County could not play on schedule due to COVID-19 quarantine within the Rebel team. Tip off for that Saturday game will be at 6 p.m. You can hear that game live on Thunder Radio.

On Friday, Feb. 12, the Lady Raiders are scheduled to play at Lawrence County to makeup for the Feb. 5 postponement. That game will only be played if it effects the district standings. If it is played, it will be broadcast live on Thunder Radio.
