Final per the scoreboard.

I had Crawford with 28 and Ethan Snapp with 30. The Snapp kid is legit...great stroke.

 

Bracken looked lost on offense with Crawford on the bench.

While I'm not surprised at this score, I'm still scratching my head over how Nicholas County (who lost to Silver Grove) lost to the Cats.

I respect Silver Grove, but I don't think the Trains could beat the Wildcats if they played 10 times.

I've been looking at records of teams we have ranked below #8 in the Region. Most of it doesn't make any sense. :lol2:

I know that NC just got Ben Duncan back, but this is all too much. Pendleton beat Nicholas by 21, but lose to Newport by 17.

Polar Bears struggle with Wildcats' athleticism

Sounds like a heck of a show between 2 of my favorite youngsters, Crawford and Snapp!

Congrats to the Wildcats.

I've yet to see Snapp, but from all I've heard & read he's something else.

 

I have seen Austin Crawford a handful of times this year. He's smooth & runs the team well. Very un-freshman like. Polar Bears have a couple of other freshmen who are getting time this year & will be good in years to come.

Yesterday was my first look at Snapp...has lots of quickness and a great stroke. Most of his shots didn't touch the rim at all. The only drawback I see is his size. Definitely needs to bulk up some.

 

I've watched Crawford three times now, and agree with everything RP says on him. Polar Bears come to Falmouth next Friday night...hope we can find an answer for him.

I have confidence that it'll come. He's pretty young still. I've no doubt judging by his display of driven attitude that he's gonna do all he can to bulk up with muscles as he ages to ensure that he plays at the next level. It'll be exciting to keep an eye on his career and development to see just how far he goes. If he ultimately manages D1 that would be so cool. I've no doubt that he has dreams of getting there and completely hope for his sake that he can. It's obvious to me that this kid eats, sleeps, and breaths basketball. Nothing would be cooler than to see all his dreams come true.
