I think Coach Riley really wanted back in the state, and the position he got (Dean of Students) is one that I know he's wanted in the past. Owensboro Catholic is also a private school, so my assumption is that doesn't mess with is retirement. It's a tough district, but no tougher than the district he entered when he became coach at Warren Central all those years ago.

I have no doubt he'll do well there contending for All A state titles and 3rd Region crowns. There will be some talent in O'boro who would love to play for a guy with a state championship ring, who plays a fun system that provides lots of opportunities for stars to emerge.

Contending for 3rd Region crowns will definitely be a step forward for OCHS. I'm not sure they have ever been to the state tournament during the 75 years they have been playing basketball.

Riley was in a tough district with Warren Central. But he was at a school that historically was one of the better ones in the district from a talent stand point. Now he's at a school that currently sits last in the talent department in it's district IMO. The positive is Riley has no boundaries to pull from in a city/county with a large Catholic population. Things could get interesting.

Is there a K-8 Catholic school in Henderson? Or are there no prohibitions for Henderson kids to go to Catholic high schools in Evansville?

I don't know what the situation is these days, but I know that in the past kids from Henderson went to the Catholic schools in Evansville.

Henderson Holy Name is K-8.

 

Owensboro Catholic has never been to the Sweet 16. Was 3rd region runner-up in 2013, 2005, 1983, 1974, 1973, 1957, and a predecessor (St. Joseph) in 1947.

 

Getting Tim Riley will make things even more interesting in Owensboro. I hope he will be pleased with his decision.
