I've never been to the King of the Bluegrass before but I'm headed out to the quarterfinals this afternoon. Popping off early from work and watching some basketball is my early Christmas present to myself.

Christ Presbyterian 28

Trinity 24

 

Halftime

 

Miles Rice has 13 for Trinity, who's really struggling to deal with Presbyterian's size. I don't know what the rebounding differential is, but it has to be fairly sizable.

Some results:

 

Madison Central 87 Fairdale 86 (OT)-----MC"s Ken-Jah Bosley scores 40.

 

Christ Presbyterian 55 Trinity 47.

 

St. X 75 Apollo 51.

 

Philadelphia E & T 54 Phoenix Mountain Pointe 53.

CORRECTION-

St. Xavier 75 Apollo 51

 

Alex Jones with 26 Points

Wow, Fairdale had big lead early.

Want to thank you for the scores. I am going to close this thread and I have started threads on each of the games so we can get discussion on them.
