Final

Cru played without Plummer and still had more weapons than Boone.

St Henry continues to get better with each game. They just might be the 5th or 6th best team in the region.

Boone's offensive sets against the Cru zone were very impressive. It led to many easy shots at the basket. Problem is the Boone bigs missed too many of them.

 

Boone has one kid that get his own offense going. So when that's the case the coach has to get shots out of sets and Coach M and staff did a very good job of doing just that. You have to make them when they're there.

 

Cru battled. Lots of solid players. I like the young PG Goetz.

Impressive win! Good job Cru!

Injured.

Stanley glides across the hardwood and his scoring looks effortless. One of my favorite players to watch. And he is also a very nice, confident and respectful young man.

I now lnow why Connor Kunstek shoots FTs better than I used to. My mom never did the Sign of the Cross before every FT!

Injured.

 

Happened against Newport, I believe.

Injured.

 

Bummer! I hope it is nothing serious.

Love his game and he is such a great kid!

Plummer took a spill in the Newport game. Staples in his head. He will be fine.

 

St.Henry took an early 10-2 lead in the game including a nice flush from Noble. Boone caught up on some nice passing. They run the baseline/short corner and got good looks in close. Game was tied up mostly from end of first quarter on. About 3-4 min left in the game, Stanley picked up his 4th foul and was taken out with a tied game. I told my friend sitting next to me that St.Henry better "make some hay" now while Stanley was out. They scored a couple quick baskets and Boone had a few bad possessions.

Nice win for the Crusaders especially with Plummer being out. Good team effort.

Heard the producers of "Real Basketball Moms of Kentucky" wanted none of that, so they cut her.
