Great game tonight at the Joe. Pioneers came out on top!

A fairly tight game throughout but controlled by Kenton and tied as late as a minute to go in the third. The 4th belong to SK as they pulled away for a 13 point win. I watched via live stream and it was cutting in and out so it wasn't very clear. I don't have a box score but Oldham could not stop SK drives which opened up the outside for Sk. SK is very well coached and deserved the game.  Oldham was without their best athlete in Jakobi Mcroberts and potential starter  Brooks Knightlinger is still out with a severe ankle injury. Injuries happen , and the Colonels already extremely young are going to have to find a few plug and play pieces to step up to fill the voids. 

 

Congrats to Simon Kenton for a good win.

Will McRoberts and Knightlinger be out for a while with injuries for Oldham?

Nice win Pioneers! 

Great win by Simon . I thought the young Colonels would struggle playing there 

Mcroberts plays, Oldham probably wins. He is a gamechanger

Well the youth for Oldham just got a whole lot younger. Heard today that McRoberts for Oldham County has quit the team. McRoberts had 21 points last game he played v Henry County and was averaging 14+ per game. This one is a head scratcher if true but certainly a huge loss for the already youthful Colonels. Not sure they have the firepower in their younger levels to replace what he brought. This one doesn't make much sense. 

Not sure how long Knightlinger is out for. Hate seeing seniors battle injuries so hopefully he is back soon!

Wow, wonder why. Without him they go from pretty good, to average.

Wonder why?

The kid is/has been fed bad info his whole HS career.

He's been at multiple schools with good teammates and great coaches. Surely THEY are the issue.

Congrats to the Neers! Anyone have a box score on this game?

I first saw Jakobi as a Freshman at Desales. I thought he had tremendous potential . Ballard Freshman team had trouble guarding him. He also had a really good Jv game against Ballard. I know he has bounced around quite abit, and don't know the story. Seems to be a good kid. MOST people in life are role players, and there is nothing at all wrong with that. Be a great role player and a team player not just in basketball but in life and I think you set yourself up for a better life. I don't know his situation but perhaps he wanted more shots or more control ? I don't know? Its a loss to that young team no doubt and his athleticism will be missed especially with how they are trying to play this year. Hopefully they can get Brooks back soon to give them some size and rebounding inside.
