I watched every second of this game and it was an impressive showing. They are undersized but they competed on every play. Offensively they move the ball better than any team I have watched all season.  Colton W got hot in the second half.  Even though Ballard was emotional drained after the St X game it was still an unbelievable showing by the Dragons. 

Its an impressive win no matter how you look at it. Huge over look game for Ballard after beating X but I take nothing away from South Oldham. Very impressive win.

South would have beaten North yesterday, we'll see how it plays out.

North over plays the perimeter against South and forces them to back door cut and drive which they are not wanting to do. They literally take the number of possessions away from South.. IF you can do that you make South very pedestrian. Not a ton teams have the personnel and coaching to be able to do that to South. I think North does. I think North beats South 8 out of 10 times they play them just due to style. Just my opinion and I am wrong 50% of the time.. lol

On a side note, I know Big Mason is just a Freshman and will vastly improve.   But after reading some of the articles on him I was somewhat disappointed seeing him for the first time.

He is VERY good. But Willis had him out on a island guarding Siakum (sp?) Very easy for me to say, but I would have over extended my perimeter defense and funneled everything into Big Mason making South score over him. Watch him against St X the night before. He controlled that game inside. Hes only 14... 14 and he gets tired. He was tired and take nothing away from South they are a very good team.

North didn’t have literally their best player… they were playing guys who had hardly played all year… and still beat a solid Seneca team.

I agree. Seneca flat gets in your face and makes you play 94 feet. very impressive win.
