Kind of surprised I didn't see a thread on this. Maybe Holmes-Scott has captivated everyone's attention.

Isn't this kind of an upset if not Connor winning but by 15. Just wondering had not heard much about Connor.

This is a solid win for Conner. Highlands is ranked in the top 20 in several polls. Any details?

Great win for the Cougars. I didn't expect to see this one. Solid win!

Conner is looking like a very dangerous team as of late. They already played Holmes tough once. They could really be a sleeper come tourney time.

This is not as surprising as some are saying. Conner is well coached and usually gets better as the year progresses. Playing this game at 3pm on a Sat afternoon in probably an empty gym probably makes it tough to get excited. I dont know what the details of the game were but congrats to the Cougars.

Good win for Conner. I didn't see that coming, but Highlands is so unpredictable you never know which team will show up. Conner played well against Holmes but that is the only time I have seen them play, guess they are better than I had thought.

If anyone was there, what was the difference between this game and the last game???? That is like a 20 point swing in a week and a half. Conner has lost to Ryle twice (once by 27) this year but has beat Highlands (and lost to highlands) and played Holmes well. Are they that sparadic?

Conner has a nice team and is well coached.

Good win for Conner. Northern Kentucky basketball is still as unpredictable as ever heading into the home stretch.

Good win for Conner, hopefully they can build off this win.

I have been saying it all along, Highlands is just very inconsistent. They have the potential of beating or losing to anyone.

I agree. Conner is really looking like a solid team. The ninth is officially wide open!

Both teams are very young, so some inconsistency isn't a shock...
