BEDFORD – When Kevin Moore took control of struggling East Central in 2009, rebuilding a program that had won only 39 games in the nine previous seasons, he selected Bedford North Lawrence as one of the success models to mimic.
That’s quite an example target. But after 12 years, after winning their first sectional title since 1992, the Trojans are closing the gap to equal terms, missing just one main piece of the resume – a victory over the Stars.

BEDFORD – Cold starts, particularly in the chill of winter, can cause engine damage. While it’s usually unavoidable, it’s not recommended. Best to let the oil circulate before taking off.
Bedford North Lawrence, after a week without practice because of a school-mandated shutdown of all extracurricular activities, will restart it high-octane basketball engine on Saturday afternoon, hitting the road to face Madison.
This is not the best-case scenario, but in this virus-dictated world, it’s unavoidable. The No.7 Stars haven’t played since the 62-37 victory over Seymour on Dec. 9, and they haven’t been on the court at all this week. But away they go to a big Hoosier Hills Conference showdown between two of the league frontrunners.

BEDFORD – Extraordinary times call for extraordinary measures, and 2020 certainly qualifies. That’s why, in case the worst should happen, Bedford North Lawrence will honor its best earlier than normal.
Normal? What’s that now? Rather than tempt Fate and wait until the traditional home finale in late January to celebrate the six seniors on the roster, the Stars will fast-forward the annual observance for the team elders to Thursday night.
The seventh-ranked Stars (7-1) will face Seymour (4-3) in an important Hoosier Hills Conference clash, but for a brief time that will be overshadowed as the senior class of Chloe McKnight, Irye Gomez, Jenna Louden, Haley Deckard, Makena Moore and Grace Kinser take their bows.
