Final

 

Good win for Dayton. Everyone in the prediction thread would've been wrong...

The end of the game was a mess. Refs decided the outcome with two technicals. It tainted a good game.

How did Eastin and Massey do?

VERY surprised Dayton won this game. Lloyd must be down pretty bad this year.

Very nice win for Dayton

How did Eastin and Massey do?

 

Massey had a decent game, and Eastin sat until midway through the 3rd quarter for disciplinary reasons I heard

How did Lloyd play? Who are the scorers?

VERY surprised Dayton won this game. Lloyd must be down pretty bad this year.

 

May be, but they were 2-0 entering this game.

Lloyd is not bad at all.

 

Brossart scrimmaged them at SK earlier and LLoyd was very athletic, the kind of team that would have drilled Dayton in the past.

 

If Lloyd was 100% this is a huge win for the Greendevils.

 

Congrats to 'em!

What happened?

Not to sound bitter, but why is it that if Lloyd loses to Dayton the first thing said is "Lloyd must be down." Lloyd isn't down. Dayton is up. Mustang can probably attest to that in that apparently Brossart played Lloyd this year and I know he commented in the past about Dayton's "potential."

 

As far as the end of the game, I don't know that I agree with the T's given, but I also don't agree with all the "hands on" Lloyd was able to get in the last 4 minutes. Up until then they weren't doing it and Dayton's guards were taking Lloyd's off the dribble every time. They let them get two hands on and they were getting steals. It wasn't the greatest officiating game in the history of the KHSAA, but when they were bad, they were consistantly bad. And I'd much rather see that than not every having a clue what kind of calls were coming.

 

And to comment on if Lloyd was at 100%, they had all of their players at their disposal, but for some reason Cheatum, who is one of their bigger threats especially with his height and athleticism, didn't play in the fourth quarter. It looked like he may have done something to frustrate their coach...

What happened?

 

It went something like Lloyd (who had trailed the entire game) had cut the lead to two and then caused a turnover with less than a minute left. The kid that caused the turnover turned around and and then he and a teammate jumped and gave it a "chest bump." One of the officials saw it and gave a technical to 'em both for excessive celebration/taunting. Dayton hit the FT's and got the ball and it pretty much put the game on ice.

Congrats to the Devils on the big victory. This is a great confidence builder.

They received a technical for a chest bump? I find that hard to believe. If that is true that official should be reprimanded or most games should start with free throws since many kids run out to the floor at the start of the game when their names are called and chest bump each other out by mid-floor. There had to be some sort of comment made or gesture.

I don't know.... Maybe there was, but it would've had to be from both players because there were 2 technicals called and Dayton shot 4 shots...
