Final

Yikes.

Whoopin.

McNeil finished with 21, game didn't slip away from SK until the fourth. Think some frustration set in, Hathorn and #25 from SK were in a battle of the paint all game long, not sure how 25 didn't have more fouls. Cooper takes on Holmes Friday at NKU's Bank of KY Arena

McNeil 21 & 8, Hendrix 7, Hathorn 6, Dickerson 6, Liechty 4, Dragan/Kunkel/Brown 2

14 points in the final 3 quarters. Cooper's D is solid, SK's inside game was limited and perimeter shots weren't falling.

Death, taxes and Cooper's D.

Holy cow! 31 points? Wow.

SK really struggles at times offensively. Don't have a really great offensive player that they can rely on like they have in the past.

The rollercoaster ride in NKY continues......Who's next.........

Great game for Cooper !

Great game for Cooper !

 

When the Cooper team that showed up last night plays they are very dangerous. To hold a team that averages 70 pts a game to 31. All I can say is wow. But they have to bring that intensity every night.

 

It seams to me in the few games I have seen they rise to a different level one night and the next just sleepwalk through it.

 

Like Walter said in his 9th region review. Cooper can be very dangerous come tournament time.

They had nice ball movement in the first quarter. Mullins is the #1 option and he didn't get many looks. I also agree they don't have a go to perimeter thread. They've been up and down and I think they have a chance to win three straight in March.

I think Pracht was going to be that scoring threat/option from the perimeter, but have heard (hearsay) that's he's struggled a bit lately. If he really gets it going, SK will be tough night in and night out.
