Covington Catholic jumped out to a big lead and NCC would never get it back.

 

Both teams battled hard, but NCC never could get it to less than 10, really.

 

Danny Noll had another good game for the Colonels, but this was another TEAM win for Covington Catholic.

 

Gesenhues had 22 for NCC.

 

CCH wins the 9th for the 2nd time in 3 years...

Correction: NCC did get the lead down to 7 points at one point tonight...

:ylsuper: :ylsuper: :ylsuper: Great job COLONELS

 

Great job by Rob Detzel and the Breds to make a run and get back in it. CovCath was just too much down the stretch.

 

Both teams have A LOT to be proud of.

 

Gesenhues had 22 for NCC.

 

...

 

Gesenhues is on any team I put together for any sport. I like tough kids and he's tough.

CCH will play 1:30 PM on Thursday afternoon.

Hats off to Coach L and the Colonels...

I like to see good things happen to good boys and DNoll is 100% "good boy".

CCH:

10/22

6/11 from the line

5 rebounds

9 fouls

6 turnovers

 

NCC:

9/19

3/5 from the line

5 rebounds

8 fouls

3 turnovers

 

Those are the 2nd half stats...

I really like how Kiernan's game is coming along. You don't see many high school "big men" who catch it in the post and then face up and make a move.

Beechwood - ???

 

Beechwood wasn't in the regional, it was Conner

Beechwood wasn't in the regional, it was Conner

 

That's what I had.

 

Anyway, I missed who their representative was and did not recognize him.

 

Congrats to Coach L & the Colonels. They've worked hard and improved a tremendous amount throughout the season.

I like to see good things happen to good boys and DNoll is 100% "good boy".

He's come up big in the 2 biggest games of the season. Let's hope he continues it on Thursday.

Colonel Crazy, I am sure you will be at the game Thursday afternoon? :thumb:

2 out of 3 years. I'm sure the rest of the bluegrass will be thrilled to see the Colonel Crazies back at Rupp again.
