SW had cut the Lincolns lead to 4 with just over 2 min to go, but we made some costly TO's and missed FT's down the stretch. Hats off to Licoln who hit 9 of 11 FT's down the stretch to pull away and seal the win.

LC jumped to early lead and didn't play very well the rest of the night. LC has not been on their "A" game recently.

 

At least they continue to win, playing average basketball.

Need to pick it up the region is just around the corner, because one loss and your done. Play like you know ou can play and you can be back in the big show.

Sounds like Southwestern is starting to play a little bit better, they've been more competitive lately. I know that they're young but who would have expected a 20+ loss season. This has just been a lost season for Southwestern Boys Sports, the football and basketball teams have combined to go 5-27 so far.

Congrats Lincoln!

Southwestern is starting to play better. Coach Schulz teams always peak this time of year. Look back at his career and you can see the trend. In 2000 we were probably the worst team in the region at Christmas, but that team ended up winning the district that year. (Somerset, PC, So. Laurel and No. Laurel were the other teams in the district then)

 

While I wouldn't have expected us to lose 20+ games this year I knew it was going to be a long year. That tends to happen when you lose @ 97% of your offense.

 

I respectfully disagree with you on this being a lost season. The experience we have gotten and the lessons we have learned have been invaluable. Because we rely on juniors, a sophomore,a freshman and two 8th graders we have looked at this thing as a two year journey ,not a one year lost season.

 

The good news is that we will return 99.5% of our offense next year. So the future is bright on the southern end of town.

 

I think Somerset will experence this somewhat next year when they lose all those talented seniors. I am not saying they will only win 3 games, but I do think they will pale in comparison from their past years successes.

I can see this somewhat. However, the same players that you will bring back are the same players that Coach Schulz has called out several times this season for not playing hard--how will the experience help that?

Because hopefully they will not want to repeat this years failures. And hopefully they have learned that you have to put the time in the gym, and you have to practice hard, prepare hard and play hard. Some kids that were starting earlier in the year are watching from the bench now. So if they want to play next year then they must really improve during the offseason.

 

The Epperson Twins will be in the gym all summer and will vie for starting positions next season. So this junior class will have to elevate their intensity level or they will not play. I think they see the writting on the wall. And I believe they will respond and step it up.

Wished the Warriors had pulled off the upset. I agree with the Coach, I think they will work their tails off to get better and become a contender again.
