Knott County Central 66 Owsley County 58

Knott broke open a close game and won by 8 over Owsley in the semifinals of the All A Tournament played at Breathitt Coliseum.

 

Lady Owls senior Macie Gibson had a big game with 44 points and 20 rebounds, according to the Hindman radio announcers, but it wasn’t enough to overcome Knott. She leads the state in scoring averaging 30, and also in rebound average at 17.

Gibson is such a great player! With Kamryn Thornsberry back from ankle injury Knott was at full strength for the first time since before Christmas. Allie Ohair had huge game for Knott and Thornsberry made some huge defensive plays. Lady Pats must improve free throw shooting.

I wasn’t at the game but listened to it on the Hindman “Killer B” radio station. Just by listening to the broadcast it sounded like a physical game. I saw on Facebook where someone said Macie Gibson had a black eye after the game. Owsley had 3 players foul out and Knott had several in foul trouble. But they have a deeper bench than Owsley and can handle foul problems better.
