Final score 53-40 or at least that’s close. Holmes played a great second half

Ryle 71 Conner 44 (33rd district championship)
Wicked 61 replied to Kentuckyhome's topic in KY Girls Basketball (High School)
Congratulations to the Lady Raiders. Total control of the game...Schwartz did return and play some throughout the rest of the game which surprised me as it was very apparent there was no reason to risk further injury as Ryle dominated without her. Scher (spelling) took over in the second half. Conner has some work to do. Hopefully they can learn from this loss and put it behind them. -
Conner vs Ryle 33rd District Championship
Wicked 61 replied to BIGZIG's topic in KY Girls Basketball (High School)
IMO Conner needs to utilize their bench tonight. I’ve seen them tire out too many times towards the end of the game. Ryle will be tough to beat at home and Conner needs to play it’s best until the buzzer goes off to pull out a victory tonight. Two very talented teams..should be fun to watch. -
Walton Verona 8 Simon Kenton 6

Nice win for Walton. -
After watching the game I could see the talent on both teams and I believe both will make decent runs this year. Conner was hurt by their center not playing a lot. Duncan made a big difference when she was in there. Both good runs were while she was on the court. The birds had a had time matching up with her height. She had very limited playing time due to two early fowls and seemed to be nursing an injury, but that's always part of the equation and Conner couldn't overcome it. Very poor shooting night for the cougars as well. Seemed like they were playing a little tight. I expected a little more from them with the good young talent they have. The Birds definitely deserved the win that night. They made the shots and had a good game plan. Seemed more prepared than Conner for sure.

Allana Matteson is one to keep your eye on. Only a frosh and has incredible power. Nice young lady and a great future ahead. Fun to watch. Not so fun for pitchers. A mask is highly suggested. -
Conner vs. Boone County Predictions
Wicked 61 replied to Cardinal101's topic in KY Softball (High School)
Strong defense, solid line-up and consistent pitching will be hard for Boone to overcome if they limp in to this one down some key players. Hopefully they have time to heal before the games are played. Conner seems to be getting stronger and gaining more confidence as they play more games. -
Maines with 2 home runs had 6 rbi's tonight. Solid defense for the lady Cougars tonight. Henry gets the win.

Newport Central Catholic/Highlands (4-25) predictions
Wicked 61 replied to Lawnboy13's topic in KY Softball (High School)
If NCC is to win this they need to clean up some of the little mistakes. The Birds are tough and I am predicting a run rule by the fifth. Sorry Lawnboy. -
Conner 9 Newport Central Catholic 8 (10 innings)
Wicked 61 replied to Lawnboy13's topic in KY Softball (High School)
A real team effort by the cougars last night. They could have easily thrown in the towel early but continued to focus and play solid defensive at every position. I have to mention the effort by Cassidy Billingsley, a ninth grader that was slotted in to 1st base in the 3rd inning I think. Went three for three and played a solid 1st base. She really took advantage of the opportunity. Conner is still knocking the dust off but I wouldn't overlook these young ladies. -
Ryle is legit. Nice win for Campbell. Not sure the win could be considered that big of an upset though. After Highlands that list gets very tight. We could argue 2 through 10 all day long. .

Henry for Conner Krohman for SK.

Final from Tuesday night. Nice match up of two young pitchers. Game went to extra innings 0-0. International rules kicked in and Conner scores 2 in the 8th. Good defensive night for both teams. I can't remember any errors by either team. Fun game to watch. Good night at the plate for Conner's left fielder Kayla Ellis. She should be fun to watch this year.

SK had two young pitchers throw last night. Glover is a 9th grader, they both pitched over 50 pitches a piece and looked good for their first outing against a stacked lineup. The Birds took advantage of sloppy defense. SK had a tough night in the field missing some easy plays, hopefully that gets figured out as the season goes along, but the Birds looked good as expected and were clearly the better team. Graybill scared me a couple of times sliding on a steal and into home. Was a little surprised she was taking that chance this early on. The Birds shortstop is a great reason to go watch them play even if your not a Highlands fan. She's fun to watch.

Highlands/Conner (9th Region Semi-Final) updates
Wicked 61 replied to Lawnboy13's topic in KY Softball (High School)
Very disappointing on many levels last night if you were a Conner fan. I will keep my thoughts on the performance and the antics on the field to myself and focus on Highlands because they deserve it. Highlands was the much better team and is playing with a lot of energy and confidence. Really good defensive effort last night although it didn't take much as Conner didn't hit the ball hard at any point. Kudos to the Highlands pitcher for that. She kept the cougars off balance all night. The senior third baseman for Highlands is fun to watch. Thomas Moore is getting a great deal with her. Great glove and hits the ball hard it seems every time she's at the plate. It's awesome that her family and friends get to watch her play right down the street at the next level. Good luck to the Birds tonight and moving forward which I'm sure they will. Represent the 9th and kick some butt.
