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

[ColonelMike]

general observation from Frank.   "AC looks tired to me."

"Amiya Jenkins (AC) just got tackled and SHA made the layup."

Sacred Heart leads, 50-45 with 5:02 left

[ColonelMike]

I REALLY wish I could have seen this game in person.  

[ColonelMike]

Editorial:   Frank insinuated that Jenkins of AC was fouled....he must not have seen the boys' tournament.....

Whistles were optional in the boys' tourney....

[ColonelMike]

Very physical game

Sacred Heart still up five, 50-45.

[ColonelMike]

Marshall County and Henderson County have to be loving this.    Both are quality teams - but both would normally be underdogs to either SHA or Anderson.    This is the perfect game from their perspective - watching the favorites beat each other into oblivion.

Anderson 51

Four fouls now on Anderson's Amiya Jenkins, the Lady Cats' top scorer

[ColonelMike]

I know that Anderson twice this year played two games in one day (and not patsies, either....one of those days they faced Central Hardin on the road and then came home to face Boyd County) in order to learn the toughness / stamina necessary for state....we'll see if that pays off for them now.....

Observation:   SHA has controlled this game for the most part, and AC isn't getting good looks.

[ColonelMike]

Not that AC has given SHA all that many great looks, either....it's been a game of attrition.
