Boyd County kicked off their season on the road on Thursday and hit a couple of potholes. They were outmatched by the North Central Knights on the road and fell 49-19. The result was an unpleasant reminder to the Spartans of the 42-28 defeat they experienced in the pair's previous head-to-head fixture back in November of 2023.
Kaylee Warnke was Boyd County's leading scorer, having posted five points.
Multiple players turned in solid performances to lead North Central to victory, but perhaps none more so than Karlene Kepler, who almost dropped a double-double on nine points and nine rebounds. The dominant performance also gave Kepler a new career-high in offensive rebounds (six). Bridget Lewis was another key player, scoring ten points along with six rebounds.
