December 2, 201312 yr I agree. Makes it tough on everyone to improve. Now, if we can just get them to stop shooting so many 3s. I've been saying that for years, since my daughter played. 3 games a week with only 1 or two days of practice doesn't give kids an opportunity to improve, especially the bench. Games are only 24 minutes long (4 6 minute quarters). Not nearly enough time to develop players.
December 3, 201312 yr How is Woodland's 8th grade boys team doing? Not sure of the record, but they lost to Gray last night at the buzzer, after being up by 10 or so at the end of the 3rd. They have 3 or 4 losses already. A couple of losses came when they were missing some players before thanksgiving.
December 3, 201312 yr Highlands 7th grade rolled over Ludlow last night by 40+ improving to 7-0. @Ockerman tonight and @GrantCo on thursday.
December 3, 201312 yr HHS 7th grade is talented in boys and girls. As mentioned above, HHS girls did beat Conner girls recently. Conner beat HHS during the season and in the region finals last year. Conner and HHS girls teams really are a level ahead of the other girls teams right now. HHS did beat them in overtime recently, but HHS also has an ace up the sleeve. They have a 7th grade girl that is actually seeing varsity time right now. So add her to the group already there and they are pretty good! Both Conner and HHS are loaded in 6th and 7th grade girls bball.
December 4, 201312 yr 8th grade Twenhofel #44 just threw a football pass buzzer beater from the other basket and it went in! Very cool!
December 4, 201312 yr 8th grade Twenhofel #44 just threw a football pass buzzer beater from the other basket and it went in! Very cool! The play was at the end of the first half. With .5 seconds left and IHM at the free throw line Twenhofel rebounds missed free throw on the block. Rebounder turns and throws baseball style full court and it goes in the basket. It was pretty cool to see even though I am an IHM supporter. My only question is that with .5 seconds left, is there enough time to catch and shoot before time expires?
December 4, 201312 yr IHM boys sweep Twenhofel 6th, 7th and 8th grade. 7th and 8th grade games were very entertaining. Thank you to all of the boys for all of their effort!

My only question is that with .5 seconds left, is there enough time to catch and shoot before time expires? To answer your question, the answer is "yes". Anything over .3 seconds can be a catch and shoot.

December 6, 201312 yr Highlands boys 7th improved to 9-0 last night at Grant County with 30 point win. HMS meet up with Woodland on Tuesday and Summitview on Thursday this upcoming week. Should be some good games among the 6 boys and girls games...

Highlands girls program is in great shape right now, with lots of AAU experienced girls in the pipeline... lots of Division 1 AAU state championship trophies on these girls' shelves... Coach Richey should have a lot to work with for at least the next 6 years.....
