Conner had their way with things in this one. I'd imagine the Crusaders had more turnovers than field goals. Way to much trying to dribble thru traps and bad passing. Hemmerich did what ever he wanted for Conner. Nice player and didn't force anything. Good luck to the Cougars the rest of the way.

I'm really happy for Matt Otte, rooting hard for the Cougs this year.

 

The Cru have a lot to replace, they'll get a lot better as the season unfolds.

Conner will travel to Paris Ky this Saturday to face Lexington Catholic...

Unfortunately Saint Henry will be too small this yr. They have to be more disciplined in the press break and trap situation. Too many easy buckets for Conner.

I'm sure it was special yet odd for Matt Otte to lead a varsity team into his alma mater.

 

Good news for the Cru is that they have CCH next on the docket.

Woww. Hemmerich is off to a great start to his senior season. Conner with a big win after their battle with Ludlow. I am a little surprised at the point differential here, but it's still way to early. Good luck to both teams moving forward.
