The Kentucky kid, Ben Jordan, that passed away overnight that you may have heard mentioned in tonight's broadcast was from my neck of the woods. I didn't know him personally, but I know many who did. He was an awesome baseball and basketbal player in high school, here regionally, and then went to UK on a baseball scholarship as a pitcher. Walked on the basketball team, last year (he was 6-9). Was a top-100 baseball player, nationally as a SR, but had to have Tommy John surgery during his senior season.
Just a real tragedy for this area. He was supposedly a really good kid.
