Final

 

King of the Bluegrass 1st round.

Manual scraps out a win for its 2nd one over a top 25 this season. Excellent win with Jenkins still out. Taylor County up next and a win could put them in the semis Monday, the date set for Jenkins release. Could get interesting.

 

Bardstown is good, but it may be a tough season in the 5th.

Good win for the Crimsons without Jenkins. I had a feeling Bardstown may have been a bit overrated coming in to the season.

Bardstown may be a bit overrated, but this is still a nice win for Manual, especially without Jenkins.

Bardstown was not very good. No guards other than Hickman to handle the ball and he struggled at times. Manual could not have asked for a better draw in the tournament. Every win is nice win especially in the King of the Bluegrass.

Manual is that good, I take nothing away from Bardstown.

When will Jenkins return? What is his injury?

Foot injury. Monday could possibly get release.

Thanks, look forward to seeing him back on the hardwood.:thumb:

Bardstown had the same troubles last year as well. I believe they had 27 turnovers in the game against Holmes at Rupp.

Bardstown is better than what they showed, plus they were down one of their guards. They hadn't played anyone of that caliber yet, and still were in it until the final minute. They'll be OK. Better to have a bad game like that now than against North Hardin in the region tourney.

 

They can get away with being loose on the boards and with the ball against most 5th Region teams, but not against somebody as good as Manual.

It will be January before Jenkins will be able to play.

Jenkins was misquoted. Trust me on this. He sees the doctor again for clearance Monday morning after seeing him already today. Possible return Monday with a definite return for the 5th/3rd.

Bardstown will be alright when they get all the players 100% healthy and on the same page. Coach Goode has to decide if he wants Hickman to sprint down court on the break or have him help bring the ball up the court to relieve some pressure from or other inexperience guards. Demarco Phillips is not mentally over his football injury and D Edelen still has a torn muscle in his thumb. Jordan Hickman had a severe ankle sprain the first day of practice and only practiced maybe a week or two at tops. He is no were in basketball shape and is trying very hard to catch up. Bardstown will be fine just keep playing and it will come together.

I feel you. Wouldn't want him coming back either. Just optimistic thinking on your behalf. Jenkins returning to form soon is a scary thought.
