Should be a good old fashioned shootout Wednesday 1/4 in Latonia at the Finn!  You can watch this one on (859) Sports Radio at 7:30.

Probably should be a Conner/HC poll up as well.  I think they play tonight and then HC/Highlands tomorrow.

Points.  LOTS of points.... That is my prediction.

Ok, I'll step and make a selection.  Holy Cross wins this one by 7.

Birds by double digits 

This game feels differently to me, as a "no dog in the fight guy", after Conner rolled into Holy Cross last night and won by 20.  I realize Conner and Highlands have different styles, and I do think Highlands plays in such a way that could allow Holy Cross the freedom to get up and down with them and make it a track meet, but I can't get past last night's result in thinking about this game tonight.

We'll certainly learn a lot about HC and Coach Sorrell tonight, in terms of how they bounce back and how the Indians play tonight.  I expect the building will be jammed, so the Tribe should be buoyed by that as well.  

I'll take Highlands by 6-8 and both teams eclipse 85 points.

Not sure they are that different.  Conner hit 11 threes in the first half and went 15/26.  The 9th region record is Bellevue with 19.

Not sure I have seen in person three players with 20+ like Conner had.  Lohr 23, Kramer 22 and Hamilton 20.

Conner defends, that was my too subtle point.
