Male 

Edelen 16, Gasaway 13, Gainey 12

Male was 6 for 27 from three for game Spencer County 8 for 20 that's the difference 

 

Spencer County senior guard Camden Cox named player of the game.

Great comeback by the Bears after trailing by as much as 11 in the second half.

That last minute and a half was pretty wild! Spencer County's Jack Armstrong hits a clutch three to go up 63-61, then they swamp Male's players under the basket to force a couple of missed jumpers and Andrew Barron gets in to tie up Keashawn Jordan for a jump ball. Possession goes to Spencer County after the jump ball with 1.2 seconds left on the clock. Timeout Bears to discuss their inbounds play. They go for a long bomb, but the ball tips off the rafters in the gym to turn the ball over to Male under their own hoop. The Bulldogs take two timeouts to plan a set play on their inbounds, but a miscommunication on the inbounds pass turns the ball over to the Bears who dribble the ball away as the remaining second ticks off the clock.

Who would have guessed Male would be in the KOB consolation bracket after the first round?

Big win for Spencer County!
