George Rogers Clark/Mason County predictions (at Mason County)

[Randy Parker]

Arguably the two most storied 10th Region programs get together in Friday night's second semifinal, as Mason County entertains defending champ & long-time rival George Rogers Clark.  These two clashed on The Fieldhouse floor at the end of January--GRC playing without leading scorer Jerone Morton.  Still, the Cards whipped up on the Royals in a dominating 83-55 triumph.

Mason County hasn't lost since, rattling off 14 consecutive victories, most recently a 75-58 trouncing of Scott in Tuesday night's Quarterfinals.  GRC cut down the 10th Region nets a season ago, and has won 18 straight against 10th Region competition, dating back to last year.  The Cardinals last loss?  To these Mason County Royals, on February 7th, 2020.

Will the Cards return to the title game again, or will the Royals reach the final night of 10th Region action for the first time since 2016?

I think GRC wins a tough one by about 5 points.
