Final per the NFHS. 

Holy Cow!!  I've seen a lot of HS basketball games, but I have rarely seen a team shoot like NDA did tonight.  a tournament record (I believe) 17 threes.  Bucket was the size of the Grand Canyon.   

Congrats PaNDAs.  Rest up and get back at 'em on Friday.

Notre Dame has struggled to score all year, but Pikeville was the "defense" that allowed them a million wide open jumpers.  

NDA will have to lock in next round, it won't be a laugher, and Taylor County will be all you want, assuming they win tonight.  

Wow. Big game by the Pandas!

Confirmed as the record in the team's post-game interview.

Nice work PaNDAs, onwards!

They shot roughly 54% for the game, but 65% from behind the arc.  Not sure they can sustain that for 3 more games, but stranger things have happened.

They will see GREAT defensive teams in every game in front of them.  They definitely won't shoot like that again. They will have to win with defense-first, which at least on Friday, they are capable of doing.

I figured this one would be an anomaly.   But as I said, stranger things have happened.  I'm sure the coaches aren't banking on lights out from 3 again and will have a game plan in place to give them a chance to win.

Sheesh, they still have to make the shots!  I think a little credit is deserved. They made history in Rupp! Congrats Pandas! Way to show the state what you can do on its biggest stage.

No doubt, made shots, didn't let Rupp make them nervous, great showing against an over-matched opponent.  

Happy for the Wagner senior to get to set the record, a well-earned moment for that young lady.  

Taylor County was impressive vs. West Jessamine.

Lady Cardinals vs. PaNDAs Friday afternoon will be a battle.
