I guessing Cov Cath doesn't get beat by 20 at home very much.

 

I can't remember the last time it happened...

Nice win for the Royals.

'04-'05 season:

CCH lost by 16 to Brossart on Senior night.

That year the Colonels lost their 1st game at home (Dunbar, by 8) and their last game (The aforementioned Brossart.)

 

'05-'06 team lost 2 games at home:

Highlands by 2; Scott County by 6.

 

'06-'07 Season:

CCH lost by 2 at home to Cincy St. X

Lost by 5 at home to Scott County

Lost by 7 at home to Brossart - on senior night.

 

'07-'08 Season:

Lost to Highlands by 1 at home

Next game, lost to Boone by 16 at home.

 

I guess the moral of the story is don't play Brossart on senior night...

Tough night for NKY basketball

I hate when CCH loses at home...

Thanks to Vories from the elbow and Stephen Kowolonek on the layup. Just thought I would take a walk down memory lane with you all.

Congrats to the Royals! Just see what happens when you play as a team!! Just a note, Ryan Hamm played, he did not start and probably didn't see near as many minutes as he will when he is back 100%. Cov Cath's cheering section is very entertaining and it was great to see so many kids from Mason make the trip as well. I love to see the students supporting each other. Great job kids!!!!

I disagree. Shover takes care of the ball. I think CovCath is within 5 the whole game with Shover in the game handling the rock. Too many bad passes and too many turnovers. Maile cannot carry this team on his back. Can you imagine if he decided to stick with just baseball? :creepy::scared::scared::scared::creepy::creepy:

 

 

 

:lol::lol::lol:

 

You obviously did not see the same game I saw.

Enjoy those regular season victories brother. :thumb: CCH has ended your Birds season 3 straight years. I think we will take that over meaningless January games!

Enjoyed beating you in your house and as far as the tournament goes, you all went one more game than the Birds and lost more meaningfull games.

 

I was just pointing out the way those victories went down. I wasnt trying to depress CCH fans so relax.

 

But lets get back to the thread at hand.

That was a great game. It wasn't nearly as entertaining as the JV game before it, though.

:lol::lol::lol:

How can you say that? Shover played about half the game at LexCath and did you see the results? I assume you weren't there. Even the 9 point loss was inflated. They were down 63-60 with 50 seconds to go against LC. A tough turnover and an AND 1 shot them down. You cannot say that Shover would not have helped keep the game close.

Shover may have made the game a bit closer, but you can't really think that he would have made it a 5 point game or even anywhere close. CCH was outmatched. It is impossible to beat a team with a tall lineup like that, with your short guard lineup in. And unfortunately CCH is going to live and die by that as it has done in past years. It just won't work as well this year because beyond Shover and Ives, we don't have a guard that can be trusted to control the ball. It is going to be a rough season, esp. with Shover being out.

 

And probably the worst thing of all is that fact that in the first two games alone there have been 36 turnovers..you just can't win games that way. And FT's were bad as well.

 

Mason County just flat out won this game, no question about it. I don't see how Highlands beat them...

 

Ps: CCH needs to develop an offense. Passing around the arc and across to the other side of the arc doesn't seem to be working.

You pretty much summed it up.

On a side note, I was much more impressed with Downing tonight than I was Middleton. Downing seemed to get to the rack whenever he wanted, was a great defender, and rebounded well. He seems to be the spark that ignites the Royals.

 

Barner played very well down low. He sat out most of the first half in foul trouble but when he got in the second half he made the most of it and scored pretty much at will down low and was very good on the glass.

 

Mason Co is a solid team when at full strength. BTW, Pawsat is a big kid. I didn't realize he was that big until I saw him after the game. Mason Co overall has a very nice team with some decent size. It's tough to defend and score on a team that has a lineup where a 6'4 kid is your smallest player.

 

As for Covcath....well it was pretty ugly. 12 points at halftime after starting the game on a 8-1 run! They seemed to play scared after Mason Co took the lead and got up by a few. Any team with decent size that presses Covcath is going to have a very good chance at getting a lot of easy baskets. The CCH guards don't handle the press well at all.

 

And for the last time...they are not good enough to live and die by the three!!! I've said this since over the summer. When they actually started driving to the basket in the 4th quarter they had a lot of success and started scoring points. That is their strength and Listerman needs to realize you can't go with a 5 guard lineup. Isler and Welbrock need to be in there together or CCH is going to get killed on the boards every game. At one point tonight, Coach L had the entire JV team in there on the floor, it was so bad.
