Nelson County hadn't done well against Bethlehem recently (they were 0-9 in their previous nine matchups), but they didn't let the past get in their way on Monday. The Nelson County Cardinals sure made it a nail-biter, but they managed to escape with a 61-59 win over the Bethlehem Eagles/Banshees. The victory was all the more spectacular given the Cardinals' disadvantage in MaxPreps' Kentucky basketball rankings (they are ranked 100th, while the Eagles/Banshees are ranked 25th).
Nelson County has been performing incredibly well recently as they've won nine of their last ten contests. That's provided a massive bump to their 18-10 record this season.

Bethlehem's defeat was their fourth straight at home, which dropped their record down to 19-8.
