First Posted December 27, 2015 Posted December 27, 2015 Running clock in the third quarter. Mercer led 23-5 after 1 and 48-17 at half. As far as the third region goes, Muhlenberg isn't in the same league as Meade County.
Rez Posted December 28, 2015 Posted December 28, 2015 This is my first time seeing Mercer Co this season. They are really really good. They definitely looked like a top 5 team in the state.
gchs_uk9 Posted December 28, 2015 Posted December 28, 2015 Mercer plays Madison Central tomorrow. I think it will be a little closer than today's game, but I believe Mercer wins by 15-20.
catfan09 Posted December 28, 2015 Posted December 28, 2015 Not overly surprised. Muhlenberg Co likes to play up in tempo and lacks the size down low to compete with Mercer. Madison Central will be a tougher test, but it seems like Mercer needs to be given credit. They're playing some good ball right now.. That's what happens when you return your entire squad. Chemistry seems to be strong.
PurplePride92 Posted December 28, 2015 Posted December 28, 2015 Mercer County scrimmaged Madison Central and beat them easily without the services of Will Hager. I expect the same tomorrow.
Rez Posted December 28, 2015 Posted December 28, 2015 I think Mercer is probably the best team in the tournament by 10-20 points.
PurplePride92 Posted December 28, 2015 Posted December 28, 2015 I think Mercer is probably the best team in the tournament by 10-20 points. No probably to it. That is the truth.
First Posted December 28, 2015 Author Posted December 28, 2015 If Mercer is fortunate enough to make it to the championship, and they play Montgomery, it won't be an easy game. The Mercer staff all spent time at Montgomery and several of the kids know each other pretty well. Lots of respect both ways, but both sides will really want the win.

So humble. :lol2: Mercer County by 14 in the championship game if it's Montgomery County. Mercer County by 21 if it is someone else.
40391 Posted December 28, 2015 Posted December 28, 2015 Mercer County Been playing a fools gold schedule. They will have a test today with Madison Central and we shall see how they play. Wins by 30 plus points and running clocks aren't test.....
40391 Posted December 28, 2015 Posted December 28, 2015 If Montgomery does make it to be championship then this will be the biggest test. I'm hoping this is the case because I like to get back up and watch this matchup. I'm just a fan of basketball and really don't care who wins.

Wins by 30 plus points and running clocks aren't test..... I will agree that Mercer has not played the most stout schedule around...BUT...they have dismantled several average teams, which is what they needed to do if they are that good, they beat pretty handily the hands down (by some accounts) region 3 favorite Meade Co...and they pulled out the victory against their lone tough game against a good South Laurel squad. Not the toughest schedule around for sure but they have done what they needed to do against the competition they have played so far. I will say that knowing this years team was going to be pretty stout that the schedule should have been beefed up. Would loved to have seen them at the Traditions Bank classic at LexCath this weekend, maybe the KOB. I do think that would have helped now and down the road.

40391 Posted December 28, 2015 Posted December 28, 2015 For the talent they have on that team one of the bigger tournaments would have been great exposure and some good testing. They are a fun team to watch.
mcraycraft Posted December 28, 2015 Posted December 28, 2015 No probably to it. That is the truth. Central up by 11 with 3:47 in the second.
