OC makes it two straight 8th region titles. They have won sixteen straight and now will face Bowling Green in the Sweet 16.

 

Any reports from the game?

Great game to watch. Great gym. Great environment. The way a high school tourney should be vs a big arena.

 

Both teams attacked the rim. Lots of battling at the rim. Refs let the boys play.

 

Oldham's center is talented.

That's the way it should be. Was there a large crowd?

1. Each coach would agree - only when it when they were on D.

2. Really nice, loud crowd.

 

Did I hear the PA guy correctly that this is the 50th straight year that Henry County has hosted the region tourney?

I agree with you Clyde. Collins played South Oldham prior to our game vs Gallatin and there was a nice crowd. BOKC has been a nice addition but give me a big HS arena any day of the week.

Built in 1962 so I'd say 50 years would be correct. You can sense the history in that place. Too bad they decided to get rid of the old scoreboard at center court.

I don't need pizza or chicken fingers at the concession stand. Just give me that great gym smell of popcorn.

 

Henry County's gym is a cool gym.

They honored the 1962 team tonight as the only region champ from Henry County.

Charles Hurt was in the house last night to be inducted into the 8th Region Hall Of Fame. Former coach Bobby Simpson was also honored.

One of the first things I noticed when I took my seat was the '62 banner. Not many gyms like that one, I'd give an arm and a leg to have one of those in NKY.

It must be rough to make the cut if it took him 34 years.

If the two teams that lost in last night's semis had won, they may have been turning away people tonight.

I believe it started in 2009. Mike Casey was the lone honoree that year. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

Did Wesley have a triple double? He had to be close with as many blocks as he had.

Henry County's gym has to be one of the best in the state. Alot of history and great atmosphere when it comes tourney time. 50 years and still the best gym in the 8th!

 

Congrats to Oldham County and good luck in the Sweet 16.
