First round I'll go with Ryle huge over Bellevue, Lloyd over NPT in a close one, Dayton big over SG, and Grant over Villa in the game of the night :thumb:

any results?

Bellevue lost big to Ryle, as predicted........67 - 24. It was ugly.

 

At the half the Lloyd - Newport game was only a 3point difference to Lloyd. I don't know how it ended.

Villa 53 - Grant 44, I thought Grant would be the better team tonight...obviously not. Villa is playing well. The Lloyd/NPT score is the only one not posted on khsaa...any word?

any results?

Villa beat Grant County 52-44. It was a good game by both teams. Don't know the score but Dayton beat Siver Grove by a fairly big margin. Silver Grove seems to be improving every day.

I think this tournament will give all these teams an equal exposure of teams at their own level, with the exception of Ryle...

Lloyd 52, Newport 42(per the enquirer/no box score)

Are they playing in the old gym at the high school too? ouch

 

Middle school gym, thank goodness!

What happened in the Grant County/Villa game? I heard Grant had the lead most of the game.

that's good. It's a nice gym for a middle school.

Grant did not play with their normal intensity. They looked lethargic compared to their more recent games. Free throw line was the game. GC 5 Villa 24. The PG for Villa was, herself alone, about 13 for 17 from the line. Grant couldn't buy a foul. Can't win if you give them the free shots. Some say refs, but a point could be made that when a team plays out of their normal rhythm, especially on defense, you send the other team to the line & get into foul trouble. If you send them enough, look what happens. Have to admit, a 24-5 point difference at the line is something to think about.

Yes, hopefully Grant is ready tonight, or they will have their hands full with Ryle.

Last nights games ended up as expected, except for Bellevue knocking off Villa. Grant wasn't far off Ryle. Any news? I just saw what was in the Enquirer. They are actually giving a good article towards the tourney each day.

I just saw Grant/Ryle game. Grant came out in much better form & gave Ryle a good game. Halftime was 31-30 Ryle. Grant could not get shots to fall in the second half & Ryle couldn't miss! Ryle's point guard had the hot hand last night. It was a good game & it was nice to see Grant step back up, bring some intensity as a team & continue to improve.

that's good to see, since everyone thought Ryle would cakewalk through this...wish Grant was in for the long haul. Standings?

Pool A: Pool B:

Lloyd 2-0 Ryle 2-0

Newport 1-1 Grant 1-1

Dayton 1-1 Bellevue 1-1

SG 0-2 Villa 1-1

Interesting way it's shaping up. Winner of Grant/Bell will play for #2 seed, and if Dayton can knock off Lloyd, that will throw a wrench into Pool A. Newport, I believe, got their first win of the season last night.
