Leslie's veteran players just too much for the Owls young team.

professor, was the game this onesided throughtout it or did the score just get out of hand in the last few minutes with the owls trying to scrap back, that seems to happen alot and people think that teams get blown out when they lose by 20 but it is easy to hae the game within reach say around 10 or so with 2 or 3 minuts left and then with fouling and gambling defenses the score just gets pushed up

also do you have any stats

Congrats to the Eagles, and good luck Friday against Knott! :thumb:

No, MW, this was a blowout the entire game.

 

Leslie is a solid solid team

It could have very easily been maybe a 30 point win for the eagles IMO

i had thought it might be but i wasnt sure any stats

yes leslie is a very solid team but smith will make owsley a drastically better team ( i think) so dont count them out this early

No, Leslie jumped out to a big lead and never was threatened. They forced Owsley into around 30 turnovers. Owsley was cold from the field in the first half, but shot a little better in the second half. One bright spot for Owsley was 6'6 sophomore Kevin Riley came off the bench and played well, grabbing 9 rebounds. The Owls are playing a lot of young players, and they are getting a lot of experience. There are no seniors on the team until Robert Smith returns next week.

Nice win here for the Eagles and, whew, I'm sure coach smith is counting the hours till he gets another threat on that team in R. Smith. Personal feelings aside here (hoping that Estill beats Owsley again on the 13th) but I hope that this kid can come in and enjoy what remains of his basketball career. And I hope he gets nothing but respect from fans and players alike. He has suffered IMO a lot by watching the first half of the season helpless as his team has had a terrible year. Hope he does well, just not to well in Booneville on the 13th...lol, just kidding.

Keep it up Eagles!!
