Sounded like an exciting game. Wolves had pulled within 7 late in the fourth quarter, but free throws helped the Engineers stretch out the lead.

 

Congratulations Engineers.

Good win. I heard the Engineers were playing wihout 2 starters as well

What happened to the two starters? This is not the time of the season to lose starters.

one has an ankle injury, and the other had a one game suspension.

I believe a Reese kid had an ankle sprain and a Puckett was sitting out one game for disciplinary reasons. Both are expected back saturday in an add on game against Hazard

Yeah, It was a good game. Wolfe came out and got a 14-2 lead but Estill settled down and startd to cut into it. When Gilbert picked up his second foul in the first quarter he sat out and Estill took their first lead. Foul trouble really hurt the Wolves. Gilbert sat out almost the whole second quarter after picking up his third foul early. Estill took advantage built up a lead close to 20, but WC cut it to 12 by half. Estil came out hot in the second and got the lead back to 20 early. But everything settled down and the lead stayed around 10 for the remainder of the game. Dixon is a load and Estill is a good team. Congrats Engineers

We've played them twice this year and they've beaten the snot out of us both times...by 38 and 24. Dixon is indeed a load, and so is Berryman, Christopher, and Reece. This Engineer team is the unknown of the region and could be the surprise team that no one knows about....or at least takes time to care about. But they may see them later, and wonder what hit them.

 

Maybe a TRAIN!!!

Nice play on words professor. I agree though, 14th region team shad better take notice of EC.

I really like this Estill team, they are playing thier best ball now and they are very dangerous from here on in. I respect the way they play the game. Dixon may the best player in the region.

Glad to see Estill Co. doing so well in their new region. We here in the 10th wish them the best. :thumb:

Maybe not the best but definently in the top 3-5.

Anyone have any stats?

Congratulations Engineers.

Wolfe came out fired up, but Estill showed good composure without 3 of its top 7 varsity players. 1 was out with a back injury, 1 suspended, and 1 with an ankle injury.

Gilbert is very good. Dixon is right there with him. Both are college caliber players. Both have great on court demeanors - great attitudes!

Estill held serve tonight when they could have folded. They have now won 7 in a row.

By the way - I think the count was Gilbert with 14 free throws in the fourth quarter alone.

Anyone have any stats?

I know Dixon had 32 and 13 boards.

I think I heard someone say that Gilbert had 40 and 9.

Berryman had 26, Christopher almost had a triple double - 1 assist and 2 rebounds shy.

Stamper added 15 for wolfe.

When Wolfe plays, it seems that neither team must play defense or both teams are just shooting the ball that good on the same night. Always a high scoring game. Why is this?
