The George Rogers Clark Cardinals capped off a nationally ranked season with a 43-42 win over the Warren Central Dragons in the UK Healthcare Boys’ Sweet 16 at Rupp Arena. It is the second championship in county history – Clark County High School defeated Cuba to win the 1951 state title. The Cardinals (36-1) only loss came to Dorman (SC) in the King of the Bluegrass tournament, making them the first undefeated state champion against Kentucky competition since Scott County in 2007.
