Anderson County vs. Sacred Heart (Sweet 16® Semifinal) Predictions/Updates

[ColonelMike]

IMO, this may well be the game that decides the championship.....Goliath vs. Goliath.

I'm not there, but one of the Pegasus announcers is and he's keeping me updated...

Midway through the first, SHA up 7-0 on Anderson.   Quick start for the Valkyries.

Frank - one of my color commentators during our girls' basketball coverage - sent me a picture.   Looks like the lower bowl is maybe 1/3 full....can't see the end zones, though.

Still tied, now at 18.

[ColonelMike]

Going to be interesting - not just to see who wins, but to see what the winner has left in the tank after this one.

[ColonelMike]

I'm thinking this one will take every bit of 32 minutes to decide - and wouldn't be surprised if it took more.

SHA zone has kept AC from getting great looks and the occasional pressure from the Valkyries has also bothered AC a bit.   That said, everytime SH seems to get going, Anderson has counter-punched.

Both teams seem to have an answer for each other, but SHA may be controlling the game flow a little more so far.
