The game was ugly, Harlan threw in a bunch of deeeeep 3's in the first half while Cumberland went 10 or 11 deep into their bench and never got in any kind of rhythm. Then they finally let their key players play a little together in the 3rd and blew Harlan out before subbing heavily in the 4th to keep it from being a 30 point game

Cumberland keeps on rolling.

Good win for the Skins. Any stats on this one and did Brock and Garfield play tonight?

It sounded like Harlan played them a lot tougher than I expected, and Harlan lost its best player for the fourth quarter due to an injury. Cumberland had everyone tonight.

I listened to the game and Harlan must have played well. I don't remember Cumberland going 10 or 11 deep in the first half. I know they got in early foul trouble. I think Johnson played until there were about 2:00 to go in the game and Wilson played until there was about 1:00 in the game left. Both studs played more than half of the fourth quarter according to the radio. The radio also said it was 58-40.

Actually early in the 4th with 6 minutes left, Leisge came out after looking very good in his first game, then Johnson came out with 4 minutes left and Wilson played to the 2 minute mark with mostly subs after sitting most of the game in foul trouble.

Sounds like you are questioning the coach's. I got to check the HDE on the internet and seen where coach Edwards said that Leisge was a lil rusty and Wilson was in early foul trouble. The bench is what got them the win at Middlesoro when 2 starters were out. You knew Harlan was going to come out fired up.

 

Great win for Cumberland!

Cumberland seemed to have overlooked Harlan in the first half, but got on track in the third quarter. Cumberland did play everyone in the 4th quarter.

Harlan was blown out by the time the 4th quarter started and as far as Harrison going out, Cumberland had already started subbing heavily when he left. Bottom line, like I said Harlan hit 5 or 6 3's in the first half (something they wont do often) while Cumberland played a bunch of people and were not very sharp and allowed Harlan to stay in the game until they amped up the pressure in the 3rd quarter.

Harlan was held to only 1 field goal in the third quarter.........

So we can't give Harlan a little credit for keeping it close for a while?

You can give them what ever you want HDE, but I am just saying that Cumberland should beat a team like Harlan by 30 plus points and if they dont, then they have not, and did not last night play to their potential and I just dont like to see this team play that way. They need to establish the level of excellence that they are capable of and be consistent with it, like Elliot County (94-41 over Boyd County) JBS (100 to 40 something over Jenkins) and Shelby Valley (90-52 over a solid Covington Scott High) and not just beat 0-5 teams and 2-5 teams like Harlan and Barbourville by only 15 to 19 points. Establish an excellence that does not give their competitors much expectation of success against the the Skins. A lot of people may not understand what I am talking about, but I guarantee you the Scott County's, the Lexington Catholics, the PRP's, the Ballards, and the South Laurel's of the world know very much what I am talking about

Does anyone know why the FM station in Harlan won't do hardly any games in which Harlan is involved?

The AM station does all the Harlan games, or at least that was the plan I heard.

That's a worthy goal, but it usually takes a while to build that. Cumberland has come a long, long way in just a couple of years.
