Irish Warrior

I forgot about Turkey Jones and Jeff Comer for Holy Cross.

How about the Covington Catholic and Holy Cross teams of the late 1970's. You had the best 3 teams in one district. Holmes ---- Schloemer, Jones, Meyer, Wimzie, Behle, Walton CovCath ---- Rechtin, Macke, Mohr, Duncan, Zembrodt Holy Cross --- List, Erledge, Lonneman, Fortner Those were some intense rivaries and great basketball games!!

Otte wasn't high man for the SHHS?

The Dixie/SK was a nailbiter, no team led by more than 3 or 4 points until the last minute. Very physical intense game. Dixie will need a momumental effort to keep Boone from cutting down the nets.

I noticed Maschnot for CovCath not in the stats, is he injured? Why did'nt he play? Cubby Connelly for CovCath is going to be a force in the next few years, long and athletic who can run the floor.

Mace has heavy feet and is very mechanical. When he is in the game Dixie is limited to playing a high court offense, as they have to wait for him to come down and set up. Defensively it limits them in pressing situations due to his lack of speed and quickness. If he plays at the next level he will be better suited to play for a Princeton style team which slows it down and frustrates the other team.

This was the first time I saw Holmes play this year, and I was impressed. They are athletic, quick, and deep. They started the game out in just a harassment press, but at the end of the 1st qtr., beginning of the 2nd qtr. they racheted up the intensity of thier press and it was devasting. Dixie never recovered and the game in essence was over, if Holmes wanted they could have won by 25 points. I will put Holmes up against anybody in the state, I would love to see a team try to play them in an up tempo 94 ft. game, Holmes would run and out athlete them out of the gym!

What are the dates and times for the remaining games?

Hey Scout, is Walton a 1 light or 2 traffic light town?

Dixie was flat and was down double digits for much of the game. GRC can shoot the trey, as they made 10 for the night. GRC did a nice job of spreading Dixie out and working the ball to the open man behind the arc. Dixie just did not have any flow or rythum in this game, and gave up easy buckets at the end of the 1st, 2nd, & 3rd quarters as time expired. GRC has a nice squad.

If they do meet in the regional finals SK will bounce back and win by 10 or more! I think SK will make it, but not the Bearcats!!!!!

Is Derek Adams from St. Henry injured? Notice that he was not in the box score the other night.

After a month of play who are some of the standout players, and who will contend for the 9th Region Freshman Championship? Or, what player or players from each 9th Region school is considered to be the standout player(s) for his program?

OUCH ! Jesse James did it with a gun!

Ken Broo of Channel 5 in Cincinnati said it would be announced on Wednesday. Looks like Rodenberg has a little Petrino, or alot of Larry Brown in him! Coach or mercanary for hire?
