If Beechwood plays team ball like they did last night (I think they had Draud, 16 pts Downton 14 pts, Riley 10 and Rolf 10 all near double digits they should win a close one. But St Henry at home with Vieth and Bessler playing strong will be tough. Coaching should be a big factor as well.

Have never been to St Henry for a game. Any chance this sells out? Have heard its not that big.

Is there a live video feed for this one? I've been a proponent for St. Henry at #2 in the regional rankings for a few weeks now, but after seeing them on video last night I'm not so sure.

 

They may have had an off night, but if that was a normal night either they aren't the second best team in the 9th or the region as a whole is really down compared to most seasons.

I've never been either but from the video feed of last nights game I would imagine it will be standing room only this evening.

Smallish, and yes, I expect it to sell out.

Would love you to expound on this.

St. Henry holds 1,250. Same as Covington Catholic. More than Beechwood or Holy Cross (900).

Do you have a link for the video feed?

If I had to guess, that comment comes from the "Dave Faust is a genius" camp.

Link is in post number one. I was watching live from the second half so I dunno if it's still available or not. But being youtube I imagine it was stored in the cloud.

There also is a "Goetz is a genius" sub-society, so I wasn't sure which one he was a member of.

SHDHS Crusaders VS Beechwood Tigers - YouTube

St. Henry very solid. Beechwood is not. St. Henry is getting open 3 pointers and they making them. Beechwood did a very good job on Vieth and Bessler. The non starters filled it up on 3 pointers.

 

Bad shots and mistakes by Beechwood fueled an end of half run for St. Henry. Crusaders lead 33-22 at halftime.

Excellent defense gets Beechwood back in the game. Q3 St. Henry 38 Beechwood 35
