Ally had 18 . Also 8 Rb, 7 asst. was something like 6/7 ft. She looked pretty darn good! Kudos to her for the game, for her recovery and for her great hs career. Her next hoops chapter will start right back on the nku floor in The fall!

Credit to Scherr and Schwartz for battling back for the victory while carrying 4 fouls, and to their team mates for stepping up where they needed to . It wouldn’t have been a win without some clutch contributions from the rest . Fairly even scoring after Scherr.

Great great game! SK in the lead much of the game, then back and forth at end. Scherr led all scorers with 21. Congratulations Lady Raiders !

Game was Friday but surprisingly not posted yet. I thought there was a lot of 9th region interest on bgp. ? Dixie hung tough with the Raiders, they have a nice team! Senior Buddenburg closed out her career with an excellent game! Ryle's big guns Scherr and Schwartz with 24 and 22 points, but lady raiders gonna need a better executed game to bring home the 9th region trophy today and get far at the state tourney! Good luck Raiders!

Huge upset! Things are looking up for Mercer county! SHA was a 'co-top 3' with Campbell and Mercer. Path is getting clearer !

Yes Congrats Lauren!

Is it my faulty memory or does this transferring stuff always seem to happen in certain schools? Highlands, HC, SK, NDA ? Does Cooper, Conner or Ryle have any actual transfers? That is, those who transferred into their schools after attending a different HS, freshman year or beyond? Is this the credit (or fault) of their strict district transfer rules?

this is sarcasm, right? Not much main stream support for Raiders early on, while Holmes seem to be a shoe in for the sweet 16, according to bgp and polls. Even the Shinning Stars guy that runs it voted against Ryle in the pole, when Ryles team is mostly his players! So, yea seems funny that a lot of posters think the game will be close when Holmes been pounding their competition into the ground, getting the votes, not Ryle. Enjoy the underdog status for now Raiders, I don't think it will last. I will take Ryle by 5.

I predict the game will be another very tough game for the Lady Raiders down in Covington, but I remember the reg season game last year when Holmes got lucky with the called off buzzer beater from Jump which saved Holmes from a loss. The Raiders proved that they are one of the few teams that can play with the Dogs. I hear they have greatly improved since then. I know Raiders are big underdogs here, unranked and all that. And Holmes is very good! (Nothing but positives!) But, I have a hunch Raiders pull this game out.

If an 8th grader can't take the criticism that goes with being a varsity player at a high school, she or he should stay on the 8th grade team, which is perfectly fine! Do you know what kind of trash talk those kids say to each other during games? Girls, too! Agree some of the BGP stuff could be tough a kid if things go too far (someone is playing shrink for one of the SK girls on another thread, really?) but I can't see any issues that a coach or player should be concerned with on this one. And I seriously doubt they pay much attention. At all. This thread is about who is going to win and why? How do you answer that and only say positive things ? "I think my team will score the most points" Period? I guess Guru better close down the high school sports forums, and the Middle school stuff, too. Not much discussion to be had if we all agree these kids are all equally fantastic!

This. No doubt the Raiders worked hard trying to come out on top of one of the best in the state in their own house, but as losses go, it sounds like a good one. Ryle should be pretty happy with their start after the difficulties of the past few years. I am sure their are learning a whole new way of doing hoops, and coaches still getting to know the players, also. Playing in that environment. 3rd hard fought game in 5 days. Heard the older Schwartz girl was playing with a hand injury as well. Lady Raiders will be fine, keep battling!

Agree they have underachieved, but no suprise with the çurrent Sr class starting their 4th hs season with their 3rd coach, àll totally new systems with coaches and asst that have been brand new to Ryle. Kind of tough to over achieve in their situation. But brand new yeAr, would enjoy seeing it çome together for the raiders. 7 or 8 very solid seniors plus the 8th grader Scherr has grown from what I have heard. Tough schedule, I think most of that CJ TOP 25 on their schedule this year. Sçott Sk, Mason ço, àND Holmes first 4 games. Good luck laďies.

Great seeing Jump and Lange sign together! Jump can be a beast on the court, Congrats getting a D2 Scholarship! Well deserved!

Great news! Awesome to see her and Jump sign together. They have been playing together forever. I think Lange will have a big year! Congratulations to Carly and family!

Agree! Some of these college officials are in left field, or in a field of dreams or something.
