Freaknasty it was nice to meet you tonite also.

 

:thumb: :thumb: Same here.....

 

Before I get to the game, I have to say Pendleton Co has the cutest girls in the region......

 

To the game....

 

Very physical game, and the refs called the game tight. I liked the way they officiated the fourth much better than the way they officiated the first three quarters.....

 

Preston Knowles, the 2006-07 POY in the 10th region is yours to lose, amazing job.....

 

Jones musculed Belcher inside, especially when Elliott picked up his fourth early in the second half. Thought that had a huge effect on the game....

 

Humphrey was my COY this year, he's doing a good job of backing that up....

 

Buddy Biggs is one of the best things to happen to Falmouth in a long time, but you have to wonder if he'll consider other options after this year, I personally would miss him greatly, love his coaching and the style of basketball he presents....

 

Look forward to tommorrow night, should be a great game.....

Congrats to GRC! Tough loss for Pendleton. I enjoyed watching your team this season.

Pendleton played there hearts out to keep it close, but Pat Elliott and Tyler Maines on the bench for a good portion of the 3rd quarter with foul trouble didn't help their cause any.

How did the Knowles kid do?

Knowles 29

Jones 20 points...17 rebounds...according to the TV station.

What a great one-two punch!

Knowles continues to impress me everytime I see him. Great game to see.

Jones is a horse in the middle

Congratulations to the Cards. They were the best team when it counted. PC had plenty of opportunities but missed foul shots in the first half and numerous layups throughout the game cost them.

 

I think both MC and GRC will represent the 10th well in Lexington and we will be pulling for them.

This is a shock... I feel bad for those sr's at PC... I thought they were impressive and wanted to see them do some damage downstate. I hate to say it but the gravy train needs to re-load at PC... good luck next year and good luck to those sr's.

This goes to show just how tough it is to get back to rupp 2 years in a row... everyone plays so much harder come tournament time. Good luck to Pendleton's seniors.

 

BTW, I have thought Preston Knowles was one of the top players this whole year. When i saw him against Holmes, he was unbelievable and made practically everything he threw up, even though they lost, I still came away impressed with their inside outside game. Good luck to GRC in the championship!

Just want to say THANKS to PC, what an amazing run you have given us. Good luck to Clark, very talented team, Rupp is in your "cards". To the seniors at Pendleton, wow what can we say...excellent!! Good luck to you all, especially Patrick. Whatever you decide to do in the next level, I know you will excel, whether it is football, basketball or just an education as you put it...

It was a close game like I thought it would be.

Congrats to the Cards.

 

I am with FreakNasty the POY 2007 is Knowles to lose.

 

I think we have 2 very good teams in the finals tonight who I think can represent the 10th Region very well down at State.

 

Good luck to GRC and Mason from here on out.

I predicted this one!

Yes you did...:thumb:

 

Hope the guys have better luck getting to the game tonight...charterd bus broke down and they had to switch buses with the band last night.

Mains got his third foul with 6 seconds left in the first half? Why was he in the game?

I feel that this game was one of the most intense one's that I have seen in quite some time, the best team won last night. Coach Humphrey had a simple game plan, continue to at every stoppage run in players. He must have gone eight deep on the bench, this gave him the opportunity to continually put alot of pressure on the ball at all times regardless of the fouls. He was able to give his main 5 alot of rest throughout the game, yet play them when it was critical. I have not seen a team sub that much since probably 5-6 yrs. ago with UK when they had such a deep bench. It's not that the Clark bench was much of a scoring threat, but they could afford to give up the fouls. And by going so strong at PC they created alot of pressure fouls. Also, Clark crashed the boards very strong last night. They absolutely controlled their offensive area. PC had their op's but failed to capitalize on the moment. I thought when PC tied the game that they would be OK, but, that's when Knowles took control and the PC boys did not necessarily make some good decisions with the ball and their shots. Some were forced and probably not the best shots that Coach Biggs had in mind.

I have one ?, just because I could not really see the play, On the opening tip when the ball went towards the Clark bench with a Clark player having possession, when the player appeared to fall out of bounds with the ball and there was no foul called, what was the call when the ball was given to Clark. Just a question not a complaint.

Tonight's game shoud be a dandy!! In light of what I witnessed last night, I'll have to go with Clark Co. They are on a mission and playing very well right now. Regardless either one MC or CC will be a very good representative for the 10th and hopefully do us proud.
