The Raiders of McCreary Central enter this contest coming off a huge district championship win, their first in 19 years, and dismantling 20-win East Jessamine in the first round. The Raiders just won their fifth straight.

 

Lincoln County Patriots are coming off their third consecutive 45th district title and jumped all over 47th district runner-up, nine-win Casey County. The Patriots have now won four straight.

 

Earlier this season, Lincoln took care of the home court and beat McCreary Central by 16 in part of McCreary's 2-4 stretch midway through the season.

 

Who wins this game?

 

I think McCreary and their very united and explosive play will win this game for the bigger Patriots and Spurlin.

 

The Raiders 70-62

Lincoln 25 & McCreary 85 :notworthy:

Congrats! I know it was tough, but you finally jumped on the bandwagon! :sssh:

L.C. 74 and M.C. 68 I think Lincoln gets this at the foul line.

This should be a great game. McCreary is obviously playing better than they were when Lincoln easily beat them less than a month ago.

 

Glad to see Watts in the region this year, he really put on a show in the first half. East should of got out of that zone a lot sooner, you can't play a relaxed zone against shooters like McCreary has.

 

Lincoln is coming off their 2nd straight disrtict title, and looking for their 3rd straight trip to Rupp.

 

Lincoln has the experience and the home court, but that may not be enough to beat the Raiders...

 

Looking forward to the game, should be a packed house.

I wasn't sure if they won the district a couple of years ago when they went to state or not. I knew it was a dandy with Boyle.

Home court helps Lincoln but it doesn't save them - Raiders advance to the finals with a 63-57 win.
