Beechwood's JT Toebbe with 18 points and 9 rebounds versus the big boys. Nice job.

Solid performance from Mr. Toebbe, impressed with his effort.

The Anderson twins with solid game tonight.

 

Brian 3/3 fg, 7pts

Eric 5pts, 3 steals, 3 assists.

I've always thought that this stretch of games in the A for NCC hurts them in the long run.

 

Fair or unfair?

The Newport Central Catholic Thoroughbreds boys basketball team unsurprisingly recorded its 12th consecutive All “A” 9th Region semifinal contest.

The Thoroughbreds (14-3 overall) took down the Beechwood Tigers, 72-41 to do that Friday at Covington Holy Cross. Zack Pangallo led NewCath with 25 points.

The last time NewCath did not play to go to the All “A” State Tournament was 2003 when the St. Henry Crusaders beat the Thoroughbreds in the second round on their way to winning the whole thing. The Thoroughbreds have won consecutive All “A” state crowns in addition to winning the All “A” 9th Region title eight of the last 11 years and 10 times in 14 seasons.

NewCath faces St. Henry (12-8) for the region championship back at Holy Cross on Saturday. Game time is 7 p.m.

I don't know. Getting 4 games in a college gym would hypothetically help shooting at the BOK. Maybe this year is the year.

Yes, I think Ky state used it as their home court a few years ago before they go their own.
