Boone County opens the doors and turns on the lights above the hardwood on a wintery Saturday afternoon for Lloyd to travel one exit down for a game of hoops.

Boone ( 3-1 ) comes into this one after being throttled by Scott as the Rebels were looking for their first 4-0 start to a season in about 10 years. Boone did just get their 2nd 3-0 start over the last 10 years, so let's say the Rebels are trending upwards.

Lloyd ( 2-2 ) comes into this one after losing 2 in a row to 2 quality teams. In that 2 game span, Lloyd has seen they can compete with a top 25 team in KY in Ashland and also a team considered by most as a top 5 9th Region team in Ryle. Sure, both losses stung Lloyd but they know who they can be if they keep grinding.

From what is updated on Riherds

Blaackar comes in averaging an impressive 23.5 points and 7.5 rebounds per game leading his team in both categories.

Bryson Souder comes in leading the Rebels in scoring with 12.5 points per game.

Joel Montanya Brown comes in leading the Rebels in rebounds with 6.5 per game.

With only 2.5 miles and about 6/7 minutes separating these schools this matchup should be a little personal to some.

Riherds shows this game time has been changed from a 4:30 start to 1:30. I imagine to get everyone in and back home before the roads become too much of a mess. Great job by the coaches working to get this game in. The players got to be glad this game didn't get scrapped altogether.

Good luck to both teams, hope all players are healthy and safe travels to everyone transporting around Boone and Kenton counties today.

Yes.

Just for a little substance here. Lloyd had 2 starters and a couple bench players out.

Blaackar 17, could have had 30 if they wanted to press the issue.

Landrum with 21 for Boone.
