South Oldham Dragons (15-2) at North Oldham (10-12) tonight....

 

South can win the #1 seed for the post-season tournament with a win... a North win creates a 3-way tie between Oldham County, South Oldham, and North Oldham.

 

Both teams with key guards out....Jonathon Blair for South and Chris Burton for North.

Tip at 7:30 pm

After a few delays, the wait didn't disappoint.

 

North Oldham came away with a 76-63 win over South Oldham.

 

It was a tale of 1 quarter and then 3 quarters.

 

South came out on fire from 3. Of their first 20 points, 6 were 3's. It was a clinic. They built up a 25-12 lead at one point in the second quarter, but with a combination of North playing better defense, South missing some open shots, and North hitting the glass, South went into the half up 32-29.

 

I don't have stats, but would like to see the breakdown of shooting percentages after the first quarter. The third quarter felt like a struggle for South from the field. And with the make-up of their team, if they aren't hitting from the field, they are going to struggle. (but when they're on, they are fun to watch)

 

The third ended with North up, 51-42. (a 39-17 run from North's biggest deficit)

 

The district ended in a 3-way tie. So it will come down to LIT ratings to determine district seeding.

My son went, came home and said "South doesn't guard anyone"

1 - South Oldham

2 - Oldham County

3- North Oldham

4 - Trimble County

I'm sure the rest of the 8th region would've liked to have seen an Oldham County/South Oldham first round match up.
