Final.

 

Observations:

- Scott gets big games from Jimmy Warren and Tyler Portwood tonight.

- Mackey was tough.

- Walls had a rough night shooting the ball.

- Henry Clay did not come into the gym expecting to win this game and got off to a very slow start.

- It was a very physical game and Scott Co. was the more physical team.

- Hundley did a great job not letting Moses touch the ball much - when he did you could write down the 2 points.

- Coach Brown was ejected with 2 technical fouls... He deserved the first one but not the second.

- Cards survive and advance.

- HC should be really tough next year with Boyd and Moses back!

I have to feel a little bad for Henry Clay. They were ranked in the top 20 all year in the courier journal but had to open the tournament against the #1 ranked team in the state.

One more observation: Henry Clay might have had 30 fans at the game (not counting their band). It's a shame that the folks in Lexington just don't follow the high school ball like we do out in the counties...

And those fans were probably there for the band and cheerleaders.

 

I have noticed that too this year with some of the city teams. There was good representation from LCA boys and girls, Lafayette boys and Lex. Cath boys so far at the 43rd tournament. Dunbar boys did not have the fans they deserve. Seems like with a school enrollment of 2,500 more than 75 fans would be interested enough to drive the 3 miles.
