Who wins?

I think Bardstown will win. I think most teams west of I-65 this year just aren't as good as billed. I may be wrong with Catholic, but I doubt it.

I will stick with the 5th region. Go B-town.

no one besides Rex has a predicition?

I say the OC by 12

Talked with B-Town fans who came early to watch OC-NCC. They say OC is the real McCoy. Will take a Herculean effort by Tigers, but I think its just in the cards this year - Tigers by 5.

Lets hope so

Anyone have a link to tournament stats? Brian Calhoun has got to be a top candidate for Tournament MVP. He had 23 against Somerset, 19 against Brossart, and has had numerous steals and a lot of rebounds for a point man.

Rooting for the public school but private just has more talent. OC by 5

From what I say today, OCath is pretty good; with a good outside and inside game, and should be favored to win. Don't count out Bardstown however, they are very athletic, quick and agressive. Herculean effort--How about 12-13 from the field like they did tonight in the third quarter (and 70% for the 2nd half)?? They can pull off the upset!! Good luck to both!!

I think what has surprised me most about Bardstown the last 3 games has been how well they have done on the boards, a tribute to Mattingly and Neel. By all rights, Brossart should have controlled in this area, but it sounded to me as if the Tigers got more offensive boards.

 

What type of defense does O-Cath typically run?

Way to go, 5th Region! Bardstown, you've made us proud.

They run a pretty motion offense with lots of picks and inside/out stuff, but the real deal is the defense they can put on you...Unless Owsley the PG for them has a bad finals game, he could be the top pick for MVP
