Braves start season off right

The Grant County High School boys’ basketball team have been working for months to prepare for their season. They’ve worked for so long that they were itching to play someone other than themselves.

They took advantage of the opportunity in their first game against Harrison County, coming away with a 65-56 win.

“I was really happy with our ball movement,” coach Ron Kinmon said. “I thought we played as a team and we had lots of guys contribute.”

The Braves won, relying on a team effort where eight players scored. The Braves leaned on senior Caleb Kinmon in the first half, when he kept the game close by making play after play.

“I thought I had to as a senior,” Caleb Kinmon said. “All of our seniors can step up and lead this season, but I thought I had to set the example.”
