I agree 100%. I thought we would win but not by this much. Great defense in 2nd half to hold BC to only 15 points and GRC scoring 45 points. Taylor for GRC had a heck of a game but only scored 6 points. His rebounding ,assists and defense is what stands out.

Bracken with an unexplainably awful second half. I guess the wheels just fell off in this one.

Credit it to GRC's defense.

 

Think many under estimated how good GRC is.

Thought GRC would win but not by that margin.

Lots of games (back to back to back) produce heavy legs and poor shooting. Solid week, just not a great weak. Recover and get ready for next game.

I don't think anyone underestimated them. Been 4th in my rankings and BGP for about 5 weeks.

Coach Cook should be in discussion for Coach of the year.

10th is no doubt a 4-team race now: Campbell, Scott, Paris, GRC. Those four should be in the semis of the regional tourney in a few weeks. But it will come down to the draw. With 2 of those being district winners and two runner-ups, they could potentially face each other in the first round (winner vs. a runner-up)

GRC had a solid game plan in this one and it worked quite well.

Tale of 2 halves. Was a great nip and tuck game in the 1st half with several ties and lead changes. GRC took the lead late in the 2nd quarter and never looked back. 2nd half was just a flat awful half of basketball for BC and an awesome half for GRC. Third quarters have either been really good or really bad for BC. And tonight it was really bad, probably the worst 3rd quarter BC has played all season. Was not shocked GRC won the game just the margin by which. I would have said neither team would win by 10 or more. I've been wrong before and I'm sure this won't be the last.

 

The sun will rise tomorrow and the boys can shift their dice to the last two regular season games and district tournament play.

It's looking that way for sure. Not as much parity as last year. Gonna make for an exciting 37th and 40th tournament.

He has been a winner everywhere he has been!
