Eta Rho Posted February 1, 2009 Posted February 1, 2009 Final. Bardstown got a steal with 20 seconds left, down 3, turned the ball over with 6 seconds left and then fouled Justice. Justice missed the first free throw, and Bardstown called a timeout with 3.6 second left. Last shot for the tie by Hickman hit off the rim. Shelby Valley wins their first ever state title.
Dawg81 Posted February 1, 2009 Posted February 1, 2009 :thumb:Got to watch the last quarter, good game
16thBBall Fan Posted February 1, 2009 Posted February 1, 2009 Can one of the Mods take my post off. As scary as this may be looks like me and Eth Rho were thinking alike and posted at the same time. Congrats to Shelby Valley at least Eastern Kentucky brings home the trophy. I was rooting for Elliott but Shelby is the next best thing.
Eta Rho Posted February 1, 2009 Author Posted February 1, 2009 I think this game also showed that Bardstown is maybe overlooked a little. They played SV tough the whole game. I wouldn't count them out in the 5th.
mcpapa Posted February 1, 2009 Posted February 1, 2009 Congratulations to Shelby Valley. Should move up considerably in the rankings! Congrats also to Bardstown; they always seem to be right there in the All-A.
StickerMann Posted February 1, 2009 Posted February 1, 2009 Congrats to Shelby Valley on their first ever State All "A" Championship--You earned it by beating Elliott and perennial "A" finalist Bardstown!! :thumb:
D IT UP Posted February 1, 2009 Posted February 1, 2009 Bardstown has a nice team. They could be a spoiler down the road. Justice is unbelievable
Obie1 Posted February 1, 2009 Posted February 1, 2009 Looks like SV dodged 2 bullits today. Congrats Shelby Valley!!!!
ky hoopster Posted February 1, 2009 Posted February 1, 2009 Way to go Shelby Valley!!!!!!!!!! I would say they are in the running for the other title also...contrary to popular belief!!!!!!!!!! I have coached some reffed some and watched Basketball for 35 years and I said before...I have watched em all several times and there is no clear cut fave!! IMO
Eta Rho Posted February 1, 2009 Author Posted February 1, 2009 Any All tourney news yet? Elijah Justice got championship game MVP, tourney MVP, as well as All tournament team. I think I'd agree with the commentator earlier that he was the best PG in this All "A" tourney and would say he's the best in the mountains IMO. I believe Adams, Bryant, and Hatfield also made all tourney team. Hickman of Bardstown led them with 21 points and also made all tourney team.

Not bad when you look up and see a 6 10 guy walk in your school.
