mcpapa Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 I haven't researched, but it seems like Brossart played UHA as tough as anyone in this tournament. Congrats to University Heights.:thumb: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2-3-Zone Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 Shelby Valley had UH down double digits in the second half. I haven't researched, but it seems like Brossart played UHA as tough as anyone in this tournament. Congrats to University Heights.:thumb: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Statsdontlie Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 I hope #10 from University Heights made the All Tournament Team. He played great all week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mustang Posted January 28, 2019 Author Share Posted January 28, 2019 I hope #10 from University Heights made the All Tournament Team. He played great all week. UHA's #10- is sophomore William Bryan, and he did make the All-Tournament team along with McGowan, Hollowell and Tandy. I agree, he was very disruptive.

Region2 Hype Man Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 I'm proud of my Alma-mater for their great showing this weekend! I'd argue Hollowell made his case for tournament MVP yesterday. He held Rode in check and closed off their paint. He also provided points at key times. They won in a tournament where Kyky Tandy did not play out of his mind. Role players stepped up. As for the Sweet 16? We still have to get past Madisonville first. They are TOUGH. Then it will depend on our draw. With Tandy, I like our chances in any 1 game scenario. We still have some depth issues along with our lack of size. We did not sub 1 time yesterday because KJ Crump is still injured. Can we make a run at Rupp, no doubt. Now I really want to see where we stack up with the Scott County's of the world. Hopefully Scott and Trinity(Region 7) are on the other side of the bracket together.

UHA would have to go through Scott Co. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
