I heard that. Sometimes we see the boys (and their dates) there and they head over afterwards. I think that's why my son did when he was a Crazy.

 

A couple St Henry players will also be making a dash to the dance after their game in Erlanger.

Crafty smart move on their part.

.......

 

I voted for NewCath and I think NewCath wins, but I'm a little surprised that CovCath, off a high profile road win, playing at home, is only garnering 14 of 35 poll votes so far. Wow, imagine how lopsided this poll / thread would have been had Holmes beat the Colonels on Tuesday!

 

Going to be fun....

NCC wins by 7. 73-66. The length will stop all drives to the basket for NCC. An NCC will be tough in the paint tonight.

CovCath didn't run a 1 / 4 clear out for Ruth one time on Tuesday, and they won't tonight. If you're saying that NewCath will be able to defend motion and screen offense well enough to keep guys from getting to the rim on back-cuts, which Holmes couldn't, I'll politely disagree.

 

Against a lot of teams / weaker guards, you'll see CovCath clear out for Ruth to deck guys at will, but Holmes and NewCath are far too good for that, as is Liam Rabe at Dixie. Therefore, CovCath will get to the basket in different ways, like Tuesday, and I think that will be what keeps them in the game. Schult and Schuh will be active and away from the basket, so Drew (whom I LOVE) and Jake will have to guard away from the basket. Jake's one weakness, in my opinion, is hedging ball screens and owning the ball until his teammate can recover, I'm certain that will be a factor tonight after watching Tuesday's game with Holmes.

You coming tonight?

 

I am going to try to make it. The chances are pretty good that I will be in attendance.

Well you won't be able to sit next to LB13 AND I....so life is about choices. :idunno: :lol:

 

See you tonight.

See you tonight.

 

Separate sides tonight?

Unless he can be talked into rooting for the Colonels. :banana:

 

I have a better chance talking Obama into being a Republican I think...

 

Maybe I can split halves tonight. But then one will be upset that I didn't choose them in the first half. Or that I was on the other side when their team won. Boy this is a hairy situation (not talking about my face). Maybe I'll just sit in the middle of the court? :idunno:

Listening to the game Ruth was taking it to the hole and converting. An if Covcath thinks its goin to shoot outside all game the better get to hole to open up there chances.

He did get to the hole and I'm sure will take a few chances at it tonight.

For sure he did, and will, utilizing high ball screens especially. He will also try in order to free up jumpers, as you mentioned. However, just like the other night, you are going to see a lot of motion offense tonight, and lot less 1/4 clear out than you would against an inferior guard / team. Believe me, when there is a major mismatch for Ruth, they will flatten out their team and put that kid in a blender all night (as they've done twice this year in games I can think of, but won't mention so as not to paint any young men in bad lights) but Pangallo and NewCath, again, like Rabe and Bolden, are much too good to rely on that.

 

For sure they'll be aggressive, just in different ways.
