2026 is here, not much Hope in Pope and I haven’t made it to any games which is not normal for me! Give me some must see matchups coming up! Preferably NKY or Cincinnati!

Neither gym is big enough for that game this year! I'm going to do my best to make that one, could be a fun atmosphere! 

Campbell vs Highlands at NKU on Feb 1 should be a good one.

Campbell @ Holy Cross on Feb 4

Some of these All A Regional games after the first round could be interesting.

You sure? The Birds will play them tough. Is it at CCH or in the Fort?

At the Fort.

That makes things even more interesting. 

I’d be remissed  if I didn’t add NewCath vs Brossart to end the basketball season. It’s a heated rivalry between the two Catholic schools in Campbell County.
