I came away a loser. Some jerk decided to knock off the side mirror of my car in the parking lot. :(

Jekobi Wells with 19 & Koebe Garrard 17 to lead the Greyhounds.

 

Landon Sexton scores 18 to lead Bourbon County in a losing effort.

That stinks.

Jekobi Wells definitely had the two most memorable plays of the night, both good and bad.

 

Good

With about 4-5 seconds left in the first half Paris forced a turnover and Wells ended up with the ball on the break. He went up and had a ridiculous one handed slam right in the face of a Bourbon Co player who fouled him. There was less than a second left when he made it. The gym went absolutely nuts. There were fans running down the sidelines, a guy behind me jumped from the second row over the first to run down the sideline. It was crazy. It was, without a doubt, the best dunk I've seen all year and I've seen 100+ games.

 

Bad

Paris was up by 5 with ~15 seconds left, got the ball (rebound or turnover, honestly don't recall), and passed it ahead to Wells. He went up for an uncontested two handed dunk, missed it, and as the ball was rattling around on the rim he just hung on it...and hung on it...did a chin up...and got T'd up. It was a no doubter in my opinion. Bourbon County hit both free throws to cut it to 3. Then had a contested look at a three at the buzzer that just rimmed out. Went around quickly and spun out, so it was just barely off.

 

So at the end of each half he probably had the most ridiculous play and boneheaded play I've seen all year.

Congrats to Paris no winning the 40th district. Best of luck to both team in the region.

I'm confused as to why the thread title says "37th District finals" am I missing something?!

Congratulations to Coach Brooks and his kids.

Parking was awful. I should have just walked from my place!
