LAWRENCEBURG – Fans who went for a high school basketball game at Lawrenceburg Tuesday night might have sworn they saw a hockey match break out.

At least, that’s what it seemed like, less than three minutes after the tipoff of the host Tigers’ 73-45 win over stateline rival Taylor (Ohio).

Those in attendance had barely settled into their seats when, at 5:19 in the first quarter, Lawrenceburg post man Jesse Hennies and the Yellow Jackets’ husky 6’1” senior Matthew Nash got arms entangled wrestling for a rebound.

One quick yank and Nash was face down on the floor, where he didn’t move for several minutes.
