In case you have not heard. Gene Pierce has written a book on the Shelbyville Eaglette basketball program. He is going to be in town for the Eaglette Tip-Off Classic this weekend signing and selling copies of his book. I have been one of the few that have read the entire book, and let me say that the book is great. Not only does it go into the history of the Eaglette history, there is also a lot of background on girls basketball. He covers Bobby Locke, Rick Insell, and current coach Lynn Burkey. There are scores and records that even I never know. The book is kind of a combined stories and stats and pictures. Very well done. Recommended reading if you are a girls basketball fan.
