Great night cap! Niece is a player, but no where near 100% as her quickness isn’t there yet, and they seem to protect her on the defensive end.

Schwartz is a player, but has to play smarter. She seems to get frustrated easily which leads to silly fouls.

Scherr is a player. Very smooth. She’ll be one to follow these next couple years as well as this Ryle team. They have everyone back next year.

Spot on post. Agree with everything you said here.

Great game tonight, great atmosphere. Tonight to me seemed kind of like the changing of the gaurd so to speak. You had the older battle tested warriors in Niece and Harmeyer, who weathered the storms of competion of high school basketball, Ally since 6th grade and Shelby since 8th grade, now giving way to the up and coming younger group of players ie; Scherr, Schwartz, Jones, Stamper etc..now, since Shelby's high school career is over and since this will probably be my last post on the girls H.S. threads, a few proud dad comments..I want to say how proud I am of Shelby. Ally has been one of the best girls players to play in Ky. and Shelby knew that coming in when she made the choice to come to SK. She knew that most of the attention would be given to Ally and she would be in her shadow so to speak. I think she handled it superbly.. I am proud of her toughness...she overcame a stress fracture in her leg her first season at SK and still managed to be the second high scorer and 3rd high rebounder on the team. She has played the last 2 seasons with foot and shoulder issues against my wishes, especially this season because she said she felt the team needed her because Ally was out. I am proud of her maturity.. before she came to SK she was a different kind of player. She was a more active player on offense, but she was asked to be more of a role player(shooter) at SK..I think this bothered me more than it did her because she accepted it without complaint, and I guess the fact that she holds the SK record for most 3's in a single game (7) and fell 5 short of breaking the school record for most 3's in a single season (70) meant I was wrong. And lastly I'm proud of her being a good kid. There is no greater compliment than to have parents of younger players compliment you on how good of a kid you have and how she has helped them and encouraged them, or opposing teams coaches tell you how great of a kid you have. Sorry for the long speel. Good luck to Ryle and good luck Shelby and Ally on their college careers!

It's okay to be proud of your kids.

Well said @Dixiefan1. Your daughter played a good game hit some big shots. It sucks when the kids wrap up their careers and move on. Makes you feel old and wonder where time went . But sure is fun while it lasts.

You are just getting started my friend.

Thanks for sharing this with the BGP nation. I love stories like this one. I wish all the seniors the best with their future endeavors!

Is Shelby playing ball in college? I noticed she nearly had a double double in the game, and 4 treys? Pretty nice game in a state tournament! While a win is always preferred, she did have a great game to end her HS career!

 

Schwartz also deserves a thumbs up too, having a double double in the game. Again, a great accomplishment by Ryle pulling off the win in the state tourney sweet 16! Good luck tonight!

Thanks...and you are right about Schwartz..but what really impressed me about the game was the play of the other 3 starters...that was the key I talked about in the prediction thread..how they would react on the big stage..they certainly answered that question.

Shelby was blessed with 11 offers to choose from and chose Campbellsville University..

Hope she has a great college career at Campbellsville.
