CovCath just has too much for Conner.

CCH has too much firepower. But Connor could keep it close for a couple quarters.

Conner may not be loaded with talent but they always find ways to win come tourney time. I think they could suprise some teams

CovCath's worst nightmare...Coach Hicks and the Cougars in the Regional Tourney. I can't help but remember a similar setting, at Holmes, when Chad Wachs was a Senior and Lewin and Co. were Juniors, losing to an under-manned Conner bunch down in Covington.

 

While CovCath is the better team at nearly every position, this one just scares me. Hopefully, CCH comes out intent on the game at hand and puts this one away early. I just don't expect it to happen.

I think CCH has played Conner the last 3 opening rounds, when the tournament is held at Holmes.

1. Scott Thomas coached that team.

 

2. Undermanned is probably not the right term. I believe they had 4 or 5 players sign D3 scholarships that year.

 

3. 2005 would be a more recent indicator of Conner's ability to handle CCH.

1. Ooh, my bad. They all run together.

 

2. They were significant underdogs on that day, so while they weren't lacking individual talent, I don't think many expected that outcome.

 

3. ...another example, I agree. :thumb: Although I believe that team had LaFollette, Kuhn, and that shooter...so they had some nice players as well.

 

Regardless, it seems to be a fairly predictable match-up...and one the Colonels have had a tough time with.

Cov. Cath. 60-43.

Only the uneducated were surprised, my friend.

Being a Homer for Conner and "hoping" it would turn out that way doesn't make you a seer. :bunny: :ylsuper:

I think CCH will be too much for Conner to handle. They also have depth in their line-up. I'll take CCH by 15.

In '05 Conner had Lafollette (Brett, I think) and Broyles (the shooter). Kuhn graduated in '04.

 

Conner's team in '01 was pretty good. I think they were, at one point, ranked #2 in the region.

Conner's '01 team was good. But them beating CovCath was definitely an upset. CovCath was #1 in the region, having only lost one 9th region game all year (at Dixie by 3). That includes beating Ronny Dawn and Co. at NCC. Earlier in the year the Colonels beat Conner by 19.

 

That Conner team was actually lucky to have even made the region tournament. They beat St. Henry by 2 in overtime in a district opener. That game featured a buzzer beater by a Conner player from the elbow that either won the game or sent it to overtime (I could tell you where I was sitting but can't recall if it was in regulation or OT).
