Thanks @Baseball Nut 24 really appreciate it. :thumb:

 

And speaking of David sleighing Goliath, I don’t have to tell you that your Tribe gets the first crack at it. All eyes will surely be on that game. Can’t wait to see the game plan. I’ve been pondering just that, and I haven’t a clue. Well, there’s no shot clock, right?

 

Best of luck to you guys, it sure is going to be interesting.

Maybe but how bad did Cov Cath beat Highlands, St. Henry and Beechwood?

 

Took the words out of my mouth.

Happy for the season the CRU is having-all good kids.

Took the words out of my mouth.

 

26, 26, and 24 point wins for those keeping score at home.

This underscores my belief that Beechwood, Highlands and St. Henry, Conner all can beat each other any given day. Those teams are toss-ups. Cov Cath is the giant to slay. Who will be the team to step up?

You won't find out in NKY, you'll have to go to Rupp.

9th Region is crazy this year. Cov-Cath is not so unbeatable after losses to Cincy schools and Male. It appears if a team can shut down Diskin, and match up physically with Green, Hupman, Starks...they are beatable. Any one of 6 or 7 teams have a chance with the right draw...defense..and 3 point shooting. Could be fun at NKU when I thought all along it was a Colonel march to Rupp....maybe not so much!

 

Covcath will most likely win every game in the district and regional tournament by double digits, they aren’t losing if they do until the state tournament. They lost to Male, and this Cincy schools because those schools are very good teams too. Those schools if they were in NKY would be the top ranked team in NKY just like Covcath is. No one in NKY is beating Covcath this year, and honestly won’t even be close.

 

Which to be back on thread though. I do think overall St. Henry is the second best team in NKY.

I do agree that CCH is by far the best team and should win the Region this year...but my opinion has changed in that I believe they are more vulnerable than I thought them to be after their Florida Holiday tournament win. I think Hupman makes a difference..with him it will be tough for anyone to beat them. Keeping to the thread St. Henry has proved they can win big games. They appear to have great chemistry but don't think..even playing their best can beat CovCath...It would take huge a huge game..freakish 3 point percentage..an off night from Diskin and containment of Green, Starks, Stocks, Hupman?. Don't get me wrong, I love heart and it would be cool to see..but unlikely. I think the teams with the best chance to unseat the Colonels are Highlands, NewCath and Connor. I think those teams can match up physically better with CCH. I believe CovCath to be a HUGE favorite to win the Region..but again..they have shown vulnerability. Or maybe I'm just hoping for some BB&T arena drama. Let's get there and play the games!!

This thread is about the St. Henry/Highlands game, folks. Keep it on course.

With all of the talent that was in this game Vinson, Vieth, Mueller, Bessler, ect. Did anybody see any college coaches there?

Saw the Beechwood coaching staff there, but of course that's because they get Highlands at home in Ft. Mitchell tonight.

Who of those kids do you predict will play Division 1 basketball?

Not sure that @BBTEA was implying D1 coaches exactly, but everyone mentioned here is a junior, and we already know that NKU is looking at Vinson, so it’s not entirely impossible that by next season we see at least one more of these guys getting some D1 notice as they all have certain qualities about them that may warrant that discussion.

All fair.

 

I just think the CJ / Kunkel / Beetle (and to a lesser extent, Sean, because his route was rather non-traditional) have skewed people's expectations a little.

 

We forget how UNBELIEVABLY good Cole V.H. and Ben Weyer were (and are), and both are having GREAT careers at D2 schools. Trentman and Aiden Ruthsatz as well.

 

If he didn't mean D1, I assume that I went there, but that was how I read his post (which is a me issue, not a him issue). Those are all very nice players, and Vinson may well end up at a MAC / Horizon type program, but odds are they won't, which is perfectly fine (and actually, INCREDIBLY impressive).
