Top 10 North Oldham faces off against the Dixie Heights Colonels in an 8th Region - 9th Region faceoff in Goshen.  

Dixie Heights is 3-0 against North Oldham, all-time, including a 71-65 victory last January.   The three games were decided by 4, 6, and 9 points - and the 9-point DH win came in OT in 2016.

North will play without their second game without the services of junior shooting guard Jack Scales (12.3 ppg, 50 made threes in 16 games at 41.7%).    Jack Fischer will get his second straight start in Scales' stead; Fischer had team-highs of 16 points and 9 rebounds on Saturday against Lloyd Memorial.

After back-to-back 20+ win seasons, DH is entering a pivotal part of their 2022-3 schedule.   After facing Top 10 North Oldham, Dixie will face a 12-win Highlands team, Beechwood, Top 20 Mason County, a very tough Lloyd Memorial team, and Walton-Verona, which has been in the top 20 this season.

Looks like another scrimmage game for N. Oldham.

ColonelMike, you heard anything about Jack Scales’ injury?   If his shoulder is even close to what I heard, I can’t see how he’d play the rest of the season…..

I Hope Dixie has enough to make this competitive but my gut says North by a bunch. 20 plus 

Dixie is full-on rebuilding with a talented new coach, this will be one-way traffic.

Minor point but scales is a senior, not a junior.

You are correct.   The lone underclassman starter at North is Grant Neal, who is a junior.

Nothing concrete.   As of Saturday, they were still talking with the doctors and doing tests.   Speculation is all over the place, ranging from out 2 weeks to out for the season.    

All injuries are unfortunate....senior year injuries are particularly sad....he got hurt on a "hustle" play, diving for a steal attempt in the backcourt.    Here's wishing him the best....I hate to see a senior having to sit....
