GRC out front early.  Cardinals getting the ball inside easily.

Oldham County seems a little rattled early in this one.

Colonels appear to have weathered the storm.   

Jerone Morton and Aden Slone both with 12 points for GRC.

Officials absolutely swallowed the whistles in the final two possessions of the half and it truly cost Oldham.

A drive by Slone results in a runner in the lane, then GRC comes up with a steal and a dunk by Morton to close the half.

Kind of weird each team has a Slone.  Not a real common name, and that looks like an unusual spelling to boot. OC with an uncharacteristic 9 turnovers in the half - if they’re unable to pull this out, that’ll be a big factor. I wonder of GRC is a trapping or harassing kind of D that turns people over, or if OC is just being anxious or careless.

If the game continues to be called this loosely, it very much favors GRC.

If the officials tighten it up in the second half, I think things begin to favor Oldham.

37-24 GRC; 4:43 3Q.

OC missing their friendly whistle? ?
