He added Through My Father’s Eyes to the title, and the almost-600 page, well-received book was self-published 15 years ago. Mr. Coffman was also a local and state leader of Kiwanis International. Mrs. Coffman preceded her husband in death. He is survived by their three daughters. The family home, The Curd House, was built in 1814.

Logan board takes steps toward added athletic facilities at LCHS
A proposed additional athletic facility on the grounds of Logan County High School came closer to being a reality at a special called meeting of the board of education Thursday. The board approved a project application and hired a Hopkinsville-based architectural firm to design the 27,000-square foot structure. It will be designed as a home for archery and marching band practices along with locker rooms and restrooms. Superintendent Paul Mullins told the Daily News that track and cross country facilities could also be added soon. Archery does not have a home of its own, and the band has been practicing on football and soccer areas. The original track, which surrounds the football field, hasn't been usable for several years. The cross country track, which was one of the best in the region, was lost when construction began last year on the technology center.

Bradshaw plays huge role in Kentucky's losing streak-ending win over Indiana
Pedro Bradshaw's last high school game was an historic win for his home state against Indiana Sunday in Franklfort. The Russellville all-stater who was a Mr. Basketball finalist this year scored 16 points, pulled down 15 rebounds, played 38 minutes, blocked 2 shots, was credited with a team-high 6 deflections and had a steal while making only one turnover as a guard. He helped the Kentucky All-Stars end a 17-game losing streak to the Hoosiers in a 111-110 double overtime win. He also drew a charge on UCLA-signee Kris Wilkes late in the first overtime to keep Kentucky in the game. Bradshaw had to sit out the last 90 seconds of the game after tripping over an Indiana player, landing hard on both knees. He told Josh Moore of the Lexington Herald-Leader he was okay after the game.

Franlin reliever Zack Sliger then pitched no-hit relief ball for four innings and teammates Jackson Caudill, Jacob Curtis, Jordan Jones and Hunter Janes started hitting the ball well. The Cougars mounted a threat in the seventh with hits by Jack Wright, Austin Rayno and Jackson Campbell. Then came the long ball by Justice, who had doubled in the first inning, but it was just a little short.

Franklin teams beat Logan in both diamond district finals
Franklin-Simpson softball and baseball players had been looking forward to a chance to get revenge against Logan County teams. They got it Tuesday night in the championship games of the 13th District diamond tournaments at Russellville. The Lady Kats were beaten 13-2 by the Lady Cougars on April 25, but they were without star pitcher Madison Davis that day. Davis struck out 10 Lady Cougars in a come-from-behind 6-3 win in the championship game. That overshadowed a spectacular outing for Logan freshman Brea Croslin, who hit two solo homers plus a single off Davis, and also threw out one potential tying runner with catcher Kennedy Nichols making a tough tag.
In baseball, the Logan County Cougars had beaten F-S twice behind the dominant pitching of junior southpaw Ethan Smock. Franklin players were hoping, however, that Smock would pitch against them one more time because they had so much experience batting against him. They got their wish. They scored six runs against him in the first two innings and went on to win the championship by a 9-0 score. Winning pitcher Rylan Thomas and Jackson Caudill homered for the Cats.
All four teams will advance to next week’s regional tournaments at WKU.

The two hits Davis allowed were to Tonisha Hampton & Cierra Collins to lead off the RHS sixth, but Davis struck out Lilly Newman and Tara Gilbert while geting Brooklyn Ray to ground out to smother Russellville's only scoring threat.
