Good morning, Bowling Green.

Children raced to collect over 50,000 Easter eggs during the 18th annual Bowling Green Community Easter Egg Hunt at Warren Central High School on April 12; event sponsors (Hughes and Coleman Injury Lawyers, Chaney’s Dairy Barn, Warren County Public Schools and Warren County Parks and Recreation) organized age-based hunts, inflatables, balloons and photo opportunities with the Easter Bunny.

Mirsad Ramic, a 35-year-old Bowling Green man convicted of providing material support to ISIS, will be sentenced Wednesday as federal prosecutors seek a 50-year term—charges that stem from his involvement with the terror group.

Historic floodwaters forced several Bowling Green families to leave their homes on April 8 after four days of heavy rain flooded neighborhoods and damaged nearly 200 buildings—residents like Zulma Lopez now seek FEMA help as repair costs could reach millions.

City officials say uninsured residents face an uncertain future as assessments continue.

The Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife Resources said flooding has limited access to some public lands and hunting areas.

Hunters are advised to plan routes during daylight — using safety gear such as life jackets — until the flood-affected areas are recovered.

Western Kentucky quarterback Maverick McIvor completed 18 of 23 passes and threw four touchdowns on Saturday, April 12th at the Red and White Spring Showcase, leading the team on five scoring drives.

WKU Football ended its spring practice on Saturday at Houchens-Smith Stadium with the free Red & White Spring Showcase presented by SA Recycling as the offense and defense traded touchdown drives with no official score recorded—head coach Tyson Helton praised the team's performance while quarterback Maverick McIvor threw four touchdown passes as the Hilltoppers gear up to open the season with a conference game on Aug. 23.
