Way to represent the Bluegrass, Mason Co.! Keep it up!:jump:

This was a really crazy game. I am lucky enough to have seen it first-hand. After watching the first quarter, it looked like it could be a long game for the Royals. They just couldn't get a shot to fall. Then, they went on a 15-0 run to start the second quarter and got themselves into the locker room with a lead at halftime. It really shows alot about the Royals that they clawed back into the game when they could've easily given up.

 

Russ Middleton took over in the second half. He was pretty much scoring at will and was penetrating with ease. They really didn't have an answer for him. Phil Barner and Keith Downing played some great defense, they both took turns guarding one of their best players and both did a pretty good job. It was great to see Phil show that he has the ability to guard a smaller, faster player. Not alot of big men can do that and it will be great to have that asset come tournament time. He did a great job rebounding as well.

 

Neal Pawsat had a rough game. He just couldn't catch a break. It just wasn't his day. He seemed to be in the wrong place at the wrong time a few times, and generally it wasn't his fault. He just plays hard and is strong and other players don't like playing against guys that strong. The guy fell on top of him when they called the double foul and there was just some talking going on back and forth when he was sent out of the game along with a Harrison player. I had never seen anything like that in my life. Neal will keep his head up though. He is a great player and an even better kid, and the Royals need him if they are going to be successful.

 

All in all, the Royals are happy to get out of there with a W. It will be interesting to see how they attack the size of the United Faith Christian Academy, as they have not faced a team that big in awhile. The Royals will enjoy their day off and then get back to work Monday at Noon.

Nice job Royals!

Go Big Blue!:dancingpa

United Faith Christian Academy is rated no. 1 in Division I in North Carolina and have 5 players going D-I

Listened to it on the radio, congratulations to Mason. Solid win.:thumb:

Career high for Middleton; sounds like the Royals needed pretty much all 30 of them today.

 

Way to go, Royals!

Always good to see a 10th region team play well against teams from other states! Congrats to Mason Co.

Like I've said before, if Russ doesnt score a majority of their points they wont have an offense. There just isnt as much firepower on this team as the past years and that will come back to hurt them down the stretch. But congrats on the W and representing your state along with town with class! Should be an interesting one Monday
