Irish Warrior Posted January 3, 2008 Share Posted January 3, 2008 After a month of play who are some of the standout players, and who will contend for the 9th Region Freshman Championship? Or, what player or players from each 9th Region school is considered to be the standout player(s) for his program? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madman Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 I've seen several Freshman teams this year and Conner has been pretty impressive. Cov. Cath. is always tough and Ryle plays a physical/aggressive game. From those I've seen, I think Conner was the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frmwaydwntwn1212 Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 Madman, what makes Conner stick out over Boone, Cov Cath and Ryle? I know they have beaten Cov Cath and Boone but haven't played Ryle yet. Ryle lost to Boone but that was their only loss in NKY. Conner lost to St. Henry and someone else. I am not trying to question your opinion I just want to know what makes Conner look the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
83birds Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 Has Highlands won a game yet? They won their first two games of the season in the Holy Cross Christmas Tournament to come in third. They lost a heartbreaker to Boone County last night by 2 at the buzzer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure there is one thing that sticks out regarding Conner. I was impressed with their overall size, quickness and depth. I've also seen Boone, Cov Cath and Ryle play. All of these teams are very good and each have their strengths and weaknesses. On any given night, any of these teams can beat the other and I'm sure there's no clear-cut favorite. I was just a little more impressed with Conner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frmwaydwntwn1212 Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 I know I'm not being impartial here madman but if size is what impresses you, Ryle has the most size of any freshmen team in NKY. I doubt that Conner has the depth Boone and Ryle has. Once again, I might just favor Ryle and Boone because I am more familiar with their teams.

NKYBOY1487 Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 From what I hear its Boone, Ryle, CovCath. Then everyone is pretty even from there down. I can list a few nice players I know of in NKY. Keyvon Arnold-Holmes (playing JV and Varsity) Brennan Kling-St. Henry John Patula-St. Henry Zach Barnett-St. Henry Cubby Conley-CovCath Jake Thelen-CovCath Troy Timmerman-CovCath Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frmwaydwntwn1212 Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 Trevan dont know his last name at Boone is good, their point guard is pretty good too. Conner's point is very good (not good with names) Ryle has a guard and center who are really good, both will be on Varsity next year, if coach Mullins lets them. NCC has a couple bigs that are good.

They are strong and physical. They are all good teams. It will be fun watching all of them the rest of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
That's Pat Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 Newport has two of the best freshman in region. Nair Johnson ( I may have the last name wrong) , and Melvin Calhoun. These boys can flat get it done, But they need a qualified coach. I don't mean any disrespect to anyone its just opinions. How does Newport pick there sports coaches?? The AD needs to take control, they have great players in all the main 3 sports, they just need someone yo lead them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
