Robertson County avenges an earlier season 59-53 loss to the Nicholas County Bluejackets in the lower bracket opening round game in the 10th Region "A" Tournament at Regents Hall/NKU.

Nice win for the Black Devils! :thumb:

Congrats to Robertson County! Dawson Cooper played an outstanding game for the Black Devils with 24 points. Nicholas County was led by Tyler Newton with 16 points.

Good production from both young men.

I give up on figuring out Nicholas Co.

I'm sure their coach feels the same way. Keaton kid is the difference in how they play. Tyler Newton has been consistent all season, but Jackets are better when he shows up to play. He was a non-factor today. Got himself in early foul trouble (3 in first half) with tough call on first one and two silly fouls before intermission. Scores 25 against Bath (win), double digits in all three Bracken County tourney games----wins, had 30 against Williamstown--win. He has to be the difference for them. Finished with 5 points today in loss. Wasn't that he didn't get the ball either.

Way to go Bllack Devils.

No Duncan in the scoring column for Nicholas, did he not play?

Looked like a game of big runs by both teams. Congrats to Robertson County.

As a casual observer to the game, I liked the way that Robertson County played.

 

They played hard, supported each other, and really wanted it. It was obvious that this was a big win for them.
