I wasn't aware the Weyers and Balls were related.

 

Grandpa is busy with this bunch.

Did I overlook Covcath stats, thanks in advance.

What a great atmosphere for the game. What was final tally of the attendance? NKU averages 2,297 per game. Would love to see this kind of crowd supporting the Norse.

What a game, I agree with what has been said about Weyer and Hall but lets not forget when Hall went out although they lost the lead I thought Steven Pangallo did a very good job. Coming in with under that kind of pressure for that long was tremendous, even though he had no points he ran the offense and got he ball to the right players and played very good defense. I bet he had about 4-5 assists.

I have not seen any official numbers but I would guess that last nights attendance was about 3X what NKU averages.

We saw the same thing and were talking about. That lady has some serious issues.

 

Myself and my father In law saw the whole thing. I said what is she doing? She's missing a heck of a game. They had BB&T personnel talking to her as well as the admins from CC. I WAS pretty close to the crazies and heard nothing extremes/vulgar. That lady needs to grow up.

Congrats to NCC getting that regional title after coming so close some many previous years. A special Kudo to Austin Neff and keeping the streak of getting a NKY Tar Heel/Ky Select AAU player to Rupp alive. That's 4 in a row and 9 out of the last 12 that there has been a player from the organization to get to participate in the Sweet 16!!

Good luck Austin and the rest of the Breds...bring the trophy back North!!

I stayed a little too late at the postgame celebration at Barleycorn's Cold Spring.

 

What? Isn't Barleycorn's a feeder school for Brossart? Someone call the diocese.

A feeder school to Brossart but the owners are alumni of Newcath LOL

I went to (2) of NKU's biggest games (Valpo & Wright St) this season. I would say last night was 4 to 5 times greater.

 

Would love to see NKU have regular Saturday afternoon games & ascend toward the top of their league. BB&T Center could be rocking.

A little lunch & a craft brew at a local establishment, followed by a Norse game with a 2nd beer, makes for a good day!

Can't we all just get along?! :jump:

Exactly! I'd even buy you that 2nd beer.

I would buy you the next round, but since driving home, I'll keep that $14 in my wallet.

I stayed a little too late at the postgame celebration at Barleycorn's Cold Spring. It was great to see the packed house greet the team and coaching staff with a standing ovation upon their arrival.

 

Equally great is reading the class being shown here by the CCH fans and others congratulating the Breds. Very classy. I have to believe that legendary teachers/Administrators/and friends Carl Foster and Jack Kaelin are proud of both teams and the fan bases. These two teams have been going at it for 50+ years. They espouse the same virtues on and off the court. The pride, toughness, and gravel in the guts is typically on display when these two teams play. It's great basketball.

 

Great for Ron Dawn, Jimmy Pangallo and the staff. Very humble in victory, deferring all credit to the kids. They have tremendous respect for CCH and Coach Ruthsatz. They know the future at CCH is very bright and in very capable hands with Coach R.

 

Jimmy is basically the ambassador for the school and just about every kid in the 9th region. He is often seen hugging the downtrodden opposing player in defeat (McNeil of Cooper comes to mind) or congratulating them in victory. Jimmy is 50 years old but could still play out there today. His energy is boundless.

 

I thought Ron Dawn coached a fantastic game last night. Having Weyer slagging off of Mayer to keep him from driving, also allowing Weyer to stay down low. Then the master stroke of going zone (typically a four letter word for Ronny). They didn't want Ruthsatz and CVH driving for buckets or drawing fouls to extend the game at the line. Putting CCH on the line you are basically saying goodnight. They have shown to hit many a clutch free throw during Coach R's tenure. Ronny also showed great patience in sitting Hall for a quarter and a half. In the end it paid off as the sophomore hit one of the biggest 3's in school history.

 

The Seniors got it done. Cliché as heck, but they did it for all the teams that were disappointed to not go down state. Many of those players were in attendance and on the floor postgame.

I have posted on here prior that NCC, CCH, and Brossart play the best defense in the State. With apologies to a lot of teams I have not seen. My sampling is the 8-9-10 region and a little bit of the 11th. If there is a better defensive team than NCC right now I would like to see it. The Anderson twins get after you 84' x 50' (or 94' by 50') depending on court size and Weyer blocks whatever comes his way. Hall, Neff, and Moeves play great D as well.

 

Congratulations NCC team and staff. Next stop Rupp. The bracket is tough, but go get the Ring.

 

Lawnboy is buying for everyone at the Hyatt bar. Just put it on his tab :)

 

I saw Jake Schulte, Seth Freppon, Michael Bueter, Zach Pangallo, & Drew McDonald down on the floor. I'm sure they were tickled to death for this bunch, but sad that they never got there.

 

I'm buying, only if we get a little "Boo-Ray" game going before hand.....I c ya, bull. :lol:
