I told you guys in the preview thread that a)it would be a barn burner and b)BW's 5 are better overall than HC's 5.

 

Hats off to Brian Romes. He does something that VERY few high schoolers do or know how to do. When Sorrell wanted to cut without the ball, Romes simply bodied up and cut him off. Its a lost art. There's no rule that says a defender has to follow behind or along side. It makes Sorrell work harder than he has to.

 

You then add in that HC didn't make Romes pay for bodying up. Sorrell was running all over the court trying to free himself up without the ball. Very rarely did HC pick Romes. Romes has to be picked 2 to 3 times per set if he's going to play chest-to-chest on Sorrell. There were times when Sorrell tried to run him off the pick but the picker let up and didn't set the pick. Great job by Romes. Terrible job by HC.

 

I know I'm in the minority but the two players that make BW go on offense IMO are Buettell and Romes.

 

BW's demise will be their FT shooting.

I was very impressed with Beechwood. Not sure of all the names of the boys but #21 is a very nice player. #23 Romes, did great job on Corey Sorrell. I can only remember Corey having 1 basket in the second half. I'm sure this is wrong and I'm sure Sandman can correct me.

 

Hall hit his 3pters when he needed to and Beechwood hit their FT's for the most point down the stretch.

 

For those that are going to try and press Beechwood. Good Luck they are already laying it in while you set it up.

I think this just shocked the basketball community in NKY!!!! This ranks up there with St. Henry beating Boone!!!!

Way to go Beechwood!!!!!!! Congrats Coach Shumate !

 

Or SK beating Highlands? Not that big of a shocker if you consider how many similar type upsets there have been in the 9th and statewide, especially recently. Now if someone with a really bad record beat them, I would say it was a shocker.

Agreed. These two with the combination of #21 is the heart and sole of BW. Hall adds to these 3 and is 3pt compliment that they need. A week ago I had Alex Hall on my "Players to watch list". He's now off of it and #21 and Romes are added on to it.

 

On another not, Holy Cross players played hard. The difference in my opinion was BW outcoached HC.
