Lady Jags earn first trip to state tournament

As the East Jessamine softball team’s bus crossed the county line going from Garrard County into Jessamine County last Wednesday, it was greeted by the flashing blue lights of the Jessamine County sheriff’s deputies. The deputies, soon joined by the Nicholasville Police Department and fire department, escorted the bus across town to East Jessamine High School, where Nicholasville Mayor Russ Meyer and more than 100 supporters were there waiting.
