Anyone know who was coaching Berea tonight after letting their head coach go?

With Valentine out, who is currently leading the team? Who might be a good fit for this program next season?

Sounds like it was the perfect storm with Douglas being hot, GRC got caught on an off night without their stud. Should these teams meet at full strength I like GRC 8/10 times.

AGREED

Pretty impressive GRC still put up 75 given 26 ppg was missing out of the line up. Provided they can continue to score, I think Coach Cook will get the defense squared away and they will continue to roll. How long is he out? This could make things a little more interesting with Montgomery if Morton is out for a period of time and given Montgomery has added a few new bodies...........

Who was GRC missing?

At this point GRC appears to be in a tier of their own. It did look like Montgomery County had a few kids in street clothes that are not playing yet, could they be enough to close the gap between them?

Honestly expected GRC to win by more than this. Montgomery beat Bourbon by 40, GRC beat Montgomery by about 20, sounds like GRC was being nice.

This is my thinking. I feel as though the offensive player went out of bounds, that does not prevent the defender from guarding them. However, I do feel that if the defender touched the pass at any point or was still over the line while the offensive player received the pass, that might be another issue. Pretty sure my high school coach once told me, "I don't care if he goes to the bathroom, you go with him", certainly if you can go there you can follow them out of bounds????????

Very interesting last 1:00 of the game. Walton misses the front end of the bonus on 2-3 straight possessions as they were up by 3. Woodford gets a bucket during that time but has several empty possessions themselves. Woodford had the ball with about 6 seconds under their own basket with about 5-6 seconds left down 1, fumbles the inbounds pass, but still manages to get an open jump shot at the buzzer, clearly they missed. Very interesting (yet sloppy), ending to a good game.

This thread has several layers. First, as I scroll through the daily schedules across the state, I have noticed many home-school programs stepping up and scheduling games against KHSAA sanctioned teams. Therefore, I want to give recognition to those programs for competing against higher level competition and for the most part doing a pretty good job of holding their own. I am sure it is great for all the athletes to get in as many games as possible and play whoever they can. Next, I have noticed that Bluegrass United has posted AT LEAST two victories over sanctioned teams, Bath County and Berea (played close with Lynn Camp). I know they are a home-school team that services 9-12 home-school students in the Lexington area, but what other information can anyone else provide? Player information, previous accomplishments, etc?

It was mentioned that Franklin County is down two starters, is it injury related? Is there an expected return date?

If we go by rankings, I am not sure this would be considered an upset. However, I think Woodford is better than what their ranking indicates.

Lloyd starting the season 2-0, should find out a little more about them in this next stretch of games against Campbell Co, Cooper, Ryle, and Dixie.

GRC with 2 huge blowouts against regional opponents to start the year.
