PRP was missing three starters for the S. Oldham game and had a prior morning game with 7 players present... Good "summer ball" victory but might want to keep it in perspective. Hopefully see you again in L.I.T. or K.O.B.

Who won the point guard match-up between Stiles and Decker?? Stiles is quick. Is he a senior? Does one of the big guys play for Derek Smith? I didn't get his #no. He was solid.

 

 

I need to give props though... best team from any of the Oldham county schools I've seen in a couple years.

 

 

Adam delph was on the bench with a deep thigh bruise from two games prior. Are you sure about PRP attending S. Laurel tournament?? What about the point guard match-up??

Decker played under control and hit some big jumpers but South Oldham's point guard got to the basket more often. The game was really won on the boards the South Oldham big men controlled the game on the glass. S.O. also did a nice job handling the pressure from PRP that bothered most other teams.

Decker won the point guard battle he controlled the game by keeping it close without his running buddy Adam Delph. Decker kid had 33 points in the game by hitting 5 threes in the game.

Actually still needs two teams. KOB is having a hard time getting out of state teams due to dates. Interest and good teams wanted to come but couldnt get out of school to come. Fairdale, Ballard, Male, Desales, Hancock Co., Meade Co., Warren Central, Etown, Central,Franklin Co., Doss, Shelby Co., Central Hardin, Rose Hill.

Do you feel that this may the be the weakest KOB in some time. It looks more like the 5/3 tournament from last year.

I knew he hit a bunch of threes. I didn't know how many points he had but he is definitely for real. It was a great game to watch between the two guards. I wouldn't be surprised to see them both at Rupp in March next season.

I think it hurts not having out of state teams. However they are still trying to get two from out of state. The KOB should have moved the dates back a week. On paper it could be down. However, Ballard, Male, Warren Central, Doss, and Etown will all be in the top 15. Fairdale will be much improved, and Desales will be solid. I would say Pettigrew from E-town will be leading candidate for Mr. Basketball. Twanny Beckham from Ballard will also be a candidate. PRP opted to go to South Laurel's tournament. The KOB had two teams from Ohio committed. One had a 7 ft' that UK and UL where recruiting. However, could not get out of school. Miami Sr. was coming but could not get out of school. The KOB will have to watch dates and have to move the tournament back.

I always get to at least go to one day of the KOB. I hope it keeps its appeal high.
