Holy smokes. Didn't see that coming. Anyone see or hear anything from the Region 8 Championship game?

 

South Oldham gets the St X/Trinity winner in the next round.

How about them Maher rankings?

Shocked by this result OC best SO twice this season, thought it would be a lot closer. Any details were they playing players down?

South Oldham was only five spots below Oldham County in the Maher Rankings. South Oldham has also won their Region 3 out of the past 4 years. They seem to know how to get it done this time of year, so I'm not all that surprised that they won.

 

I'd just be curious if Oldham County went behind and ended up chasing the game to continue to fall further and further behind?

Sorry that came out wrong .... Any players hurt or did they get any red cards?

South came out and scored on two breakaways in the first twenty minute as oldham was playing a high line. South was definitely aware of #9 all over the field and kept his touches to a minimum plus double him when he did got the ball. South actually scored on four breakaways in the game and missed on two more. I think the oldham team gave up after the fourth goal and stopped playing. Really was disappointing to see.

We all know that playing tough competition helps prepare for states. According to Maher South Oldham played the toughest slate of KY opponents in the state this year.

 

Going into the game, Oldham County had allowed 33 goals (39 at the end of the game). Having seen them twice already this year it looks like South Oldham had Oldham County figured out.

 

South Oldham has also already seen both Trinity (0-2 L) and St X (1-2 L). The Region 7 winner will no doubt be favored, but they'll have to travel to South Oldham to punch their ticket to the quarterfinals.

 

Region 7/8 winner faces the Region 9/10 winner in the quarterfinals. Should be interesting. Go Northern KY!

When 9/10 plays 7/8 it's over for nky.

Any truth to what I'm hearing. Several of OC's better players did not play in this game because they were on fall break? If so I would really question their dedication to their team and team mates.

Don't know but that might explain why they didn't play well.

How's that again?

I got to admit had seen both of the teams and with some of the results of other games didn't think CCH had it.

Just yanking your chain. Having seen CCH all year I knew they had it in them it was just a matter of playing at the level they were capable of playing at and they did that last night.

Good to see that they are playing their best at the right time. Good luck to the boys next week.
