Big game in the 33rd as the Boone Co Rebels try to shock everyone but themselves by taking the #1 seed in the District tournament with already wins over Ryle and Conner.  Cooper has a loss to Ryle on their schedule and would like nothing more than to take that #1 seed away from Boone.  This is a very important game as the 2 seed will have a very tough time with the 3 seed no matter who it is.  One X factor going into District play for Cooper is they should have sharp shooter Andy Johnson back by the end of this month.  Going to change the dynamic of the entire regional tournament.  You can watch this game on (859) Sports Radio.

Cooper by 8.  They're just too tough on the defensive end.

Consistency will be key for Cooper.  They are building on the tough loss to Ryle with 2 straight wins with the latter being a very good Lloyd team!  Boone has been playing very well and is senior laden team, however, they only have 2 more 9th region games left on their schedule (Cooper and Dixie) so I question their schedule to date when the only teams they have beaten in the 9th with winning records are Ryle and Holy Cross.  They do not play CCH or Lloyd this year and I ma certainly not saying they are not good at all, but I look forward to seeing the outcomes of their games against Cooper, Williamstown, Campbell Co. McNick (OH) and Dixie which should paint a better picture on how they might perform come tourney time.  

 

This game is cancelled tonight and may be rescheduled for 1/20.

330 Saturday.
