Greyhounds swept at Cowley (02/07/12)
ARKANSAS CITY -- Fort Scott Community College's basketball teams were swept by Cowley in Jayhawk Conference-Eastern Division play at W.S. Scott Auditorium Saturday night, a place that's difficult on visitors under normal circumstances.

Five still fighting for 'Hounds (02/02/12)
Fort Scott Community College asked no quarter and gave no quarter Wednesday night against Labette at Arnold Arena.

'Hound men battle on with 5 players (01/31/12)
The spectators at Arnold Arena understood that they had seen something special and showed it by showering Fort Scott Community College's players with applause after the final buzzer sounded Saturday afternoon.

But the 'Hounds outscored the visitors 21-4 in the final six minutes of play...

Independence's women, ranked 16th in the NJCAA Division I poll, walked away from Arnold Arena Saturday afternoon with a 64-46 victory over Fort Scott Community College as the Greyhounds again struggled early.

Then once they get through them, the finally play well but find themselves too far down to come back...
