Warren Central played in the King of the Bluegrass and the LIT, and a good tournament in Missouri. They also played Christian County, University Heights and Apollo, last year's state runner-up?

 

Nothing wrong with that schedule ...

 

I was about to say....

 

I know they played two top 10 teams in Doss and Ballard. They lost to both, but they played.

WC come out of the half strong WC-39 JBS-33

Its not a bad schedule. But to be honest UHA was not very good and Apollo wasn't close to a top 10 team. I think Christian Co ended up around #15.

Was Doss top 10? I don't think they were at the end of the year. A pretty good team none the less.

I was even wrong on that one. They played three top 10 teams in Ballard, Male, and Doss.

 

Add Christian County to the mix and they played four top 20 teams and in all, four Sweet 16 teams.

50-38 WC at end of 3. Horrible 3rd by JBS.

male was #12. Doss was #21.

It looks like Warren Central played a better schedule than I thought. They played a few teams in the #10-#25 range.

Central outscores Buchanan 18-7 in the third quarter.

male was #12.

You should know that wherever those rankings are from (Cantrall?), they're dirt on here. We go by BGP. Those are the rankings in the link I gave you.

Warren Central played in the King of the Bluegrass and the LIT, and a good tournament in Missouri. They also played Christian County, University Heights and Apollo, last year's state runner-up.

 

Nothing wrong with that schedule ...

In the Missouri tournament, Warren Central beat a team from Georgia that was 17-8 at last report and the top-ranked Class A team from Tennessee, which was upset in the regional tournament by a district rival it had beaten twice by an average of 15 points during the regular season ... a team that lost to the eventual state champion by two points in the semifinls.

 

The team that beat the Dragons in Missouri was the Class 6A runner-up in Arkansas.

score?

On a game note, it's 56-43 WCHS with 5:30 remaining. You may be surprised to know that Jeremy Anderson still has only 2 points.

Two reasons the game was close at the half ...

 

1. June Buchanan shot 55 percent from the field and hit more than half their 3-pointers. If they do that, they can play with some people.

 

2. Warren Central's two leading scorers, Britt and Anderson, were a combined 1-10 from the field and had five points between them.

Lead is now up to 62-43.

The Crusaders are 5 for 18 from the field in the second half.
