December 19, 200718 yr My post was based on last year... He doesn't play for anyone right now. How long until he's back and playing? Thursday. Well that's when his boot comes off, the Firehawks play sunday so we'll see if he'll be ready or not.
December 19, 200718 yr Thursday. Well that's when his boot comes off, the Firehawks play sunday so we'll see if he'll be ready or not. I haven't seen him since this past summer. Has he grown anymore? The kid was starting to develop some strong post moves.
December 19, 200718 yr I haven't seen him since this past summer. Has he grown anymore? The kid was starting to develop some strong post moves. He's about six one now. He broke his growth plate in his foot out so hopefully that doesn't stunt his growth.
December 19, 200718 yr He's about six one now. He broke his growth plate in his foot out so hopefully that doesn't stunt his growth. He is Twenhofel material right? Not summit?
December 19, 200718 yr Also, curious as to how you guys are doing against Cincy Lakers, NKY Tarheels, MBA Warriors and the Cincy Lakers in your league. What is your record with these teams? That should provide stout competition. Well, they have only had 2 games so far. One was snowed out vs. MBA Warriors and the Tar Heels game we had 5 kids missing so we rescheduled it. We opened up with Cincy Lakers and lost by 5 pts I believe, although we had 5 kids playing in that NKU tourney the same day and many had 2 games prior to this one. Take nothing away from the Lakers, they get up and down the floor very well. The only other game was also against the Lakers at home where they won 34-31 I believe. Games this week for the NKY Warriors (Rockets) are on Saturday vs. MBA Warriors in a makeup and then on Sunday out at Simon Kenton High School vs. the NKY Knicks. Anybody have a clue who is on this Knicks team? Twenhofel kids?
December 19, 200718 yr I looked up the state U12 results from last year. Here are your Rockets games: Rockets 52 Mason County Swarm 46 Rich Whitford led the Rockets with 11 points. Mason County was led by Alex Stahl with 11 points. Richmond Kentucky Stars 62 Rockets 51 Dominique Hawkins led the Stars with 27 points. Bailey Witte and Rich Whitford led the Rockets with 10 and nine points respectively. Rockets 59 Bullitt Storm 23 Bailey Witte and Lukas Turner led the Rockets with 18 and 11 points respectively. Josh Miller led Bullitt Storm with nine points. Tournament Round N. Kentucky Pacers 56 N. Kentucky Flash 47 Tyler Lonneman and Jackson Brennan led the Pacers with 11 and nine points respectively. N.

Campbell County Kings 48 The Truth-Maroon 47 Nathan McGovney and Justin Saunders paced the Kings with 23 and 17 points respectively. Jordan Bridges and Lavonne Holland led The Truth with 16 and 15 points respectively. Mountain Thunder 48 Ice 46 Dylan Hamilton led Mountain Thunder with 24 points. Bryson Williams added 12 points on four three point baskets. Sam Maybriar and Ross Cook led Ice with 19 and 11 points respectively. N. Kentucky Nets 48 Firehawks 41 Max Nussbaum and Jared Kunkel led the Nets with 14 and 11 points respectively. Andrew Sampson and Jared Swanson led the Firehawks with 13 and 11 points respectively. Richmond Kentucky Stars 40 Fleming County Jaguars 31 Joey Grove paced the victors with 11 points. Justin Dailey and Desmond McAdams led the Jaguars with 10 points each. Somerset Future 55 N. Kentucky Pacers 42 Quarterfinal Taylor Gover led Somerset Future with 37 points. Drew Mays and Zack Moo Young led the Pacers with 12 and 11 points respectively. Louisville Storm 57 Northeast Kentucky Royals 44 Quarterfinal Tony Goral led the victors with 23 points. Alex Jones and James Yates added 10 points each. Kyle Skaggs and Elijah King led the Royals with 21 and 12 points respectively. Campbell County Kings 68 Mountain Thunder 57 Quarterfinal Garrett Geiman and Nathan McGovney led the Kings with 22 points each. Geiman and McGovney recorded four and three three point baskets respectively. Dylan Hamilton, Bryson Williams, Richmond McAnallen, and Shane Hall led Mountain Thunder with 17, 13, 11, and 11 points respectively. N. Kentucky Nets 52 Richmond Kentucky Stars 41 Quarterfinal Mike Mallot led the Nets with 21 points. Tanner Moeves and Jared Kunkel added nine points each. Dominique Hawkins and Dakota Alexander led Richmond Kentucky Stars with 17 and 10 points respectively. Somerset Future 49 Louisville Storm 46 Semifinal Taylor Gover led Somerset Future with 24 points. Ryan Dishman added 15 points on five three point baskets. James Yates and Tony Goral led Storm with 16 and 13 points respectively. N. Kentucky Nets 58 Campbell County Kings 51 (OT) Semifinal Mike Mallot led the Nets with 18 points. Jared Kunkel and Max Nussbaum added 16 and 11 points respectively. Nathan McGovney led the Kings with 23 points. Ben Uebel and Garrett Geiman added 11 and nine points respectively, with each recording three three point baskets. Somerset Future 46 N. Kentucky Nets 43 Championship Taylor Gover led Somerset Future with 20 points. Mike Mallot and Jared Kunkel led the Nets with 15 points each. Thats a nice summary. If the Rockets would have gotten by the Richmond team they would have faced Fleming Co. who they have beaten before and then I believe the matchup was going to be with the NKY NETS. That would have been a very good game. Nets did a great job advancing and the CC KIngs actually had a very nice tournament last year as well. NKY was represented very well in this as they typically always do.
December 20, 200718 yr He is Twenhofel material right? Not summit? Correct, Sampson PF is out for Summit..
December 20, 200718 yr I think it would be pretty cool to get a list of AAU teams across the state with their rosters and any information posters could provide about these teams. Somewhat like a STate preview. Let me know what you all think. We talk so much about the top players but there are alot of other kids out there playing that could surprise some people over the next couple years by growing/improving their game.
December 20, 200718 yr Well, they have only had 2 games so far. One was snowed out vs. MBA Warriors and the Tar Heels game we had 5 kids missing so we rescheduled it.

Anybody have a clue who is on this Knicks team? Twenhofel kids? Correct. They've got a good undersized post player. I'm not 100% sure of their roster anymore but I know most are from Twenhofel and maybe a couple Summit View kids.
December 20, 200718 yr Correct. They've got a good undersized post player. I'm not 100% sure of their roster anymore but I know most are from Twenhofel and maybe a couple Summit View kids. Didn't Racke used to play for the Knicks? Without him they really don't have anything.

I didn't get to see any of their Friday or Saturday games.
December 20, 200718 yr Didn't Racke used to play for the Knicks? Without him they really don't have anything. Yes, a few kids have left the Knicks and went other places in the past couple years. I don't think thats True. Tanner Norton plays hard down low, and they've got a couple scrappy guards who can knock down some threes.

I've watched them play 3 games at the BCI last year and lose by 40 to Kings, 30+ by the Nets and Pacers. And that was with Racke.

December 20, 200718 yr Racke isn't the savior. It's a new year, we'll see how they play this year. I'm just saying that's all they had last year.
