A good defensive effort by both teams. Ryle broke open a close game in the second half. Ryle was led by Jenna Crittendon, 17 points, Ashley Cheeseman,12 points, and Abby Jump, with 11 points. :walk:

:thumb: Lot of wear and tear on my Lady Pioneers. Hung in there for a good portion of the game. Good job girls. Rest up for Walton on Monday. What a fine young team this Ryle is. Sound, fit, quick and dead-on shooting. Oh, ya, and a lot of them!

Did Wainscott play?

 

I agree, Ryle can wear you down.

The Lady Pioneers are a resilient team and should be very proud of their effort. It's hard to lose 18.7 points a game . Good luck the rest of the season.

Did Wainscott play?

Wainscott did not play. Obviously would make a difference. Was it me or did it seem like there were more turnovers than shots taken? Very sloppy.

Ryle 55, Simon Kenton 41

 

Simon Kenton (16-5) -Ponzer 4 0 11, Stephenson 5 0 11, Pace 3 2 8, Brown 2 1 5, Blevins 3 0 6. Totals 17 3 41.

 

Ryle (14-7) -Williams 1 0 2, Jump 4 0 11, Meyer 1 0 2, Cheeseman 3 2 10, Crittendon 6 2 17, Douthit 4 0 9, Johnson 1 0 2, Oliverio 1 0 2. Totals 21 4 55.

3-pointers: SK 4 (Ponzer 3, Stephenson 1); R 9 (Jump, Crittendon 3, Cheeseman 2, Douthit 1).

Sloppy? Yes. Lots of turnovers. also, SK has not been able to take advantage of breaks that did go their way. Many times Monday against BOONE they would get a call, a Boone turnover, great rebound, and turn right around and give it back.

 

You can always say "IF" however, this game looks completly different "IF" RYLE doesn't hit 9 :eek: (yes 9 half of RYLES pts) wide open 3's and "IF" SK only hits their average number of turnovers this season.

 

I think last night for the first time they looked "gun shy." :idunno: Brown needs to step up (they cannot pick up Wainscott's 18 and the 7-9 she has been short the last two games.) I know she gets doubled up and isolated but needs to fight through it.

 

Only "two" officials last night :confused: let the game become much more physical than it should have been IMO. Short handed makes it that much more difficult espically when Brown-Stephenson - Ponzer get no break.

 

I am not saying they could have beaten either of these teams without an experienced player like Wainscott, but considering both Boone and Ryle left their starters in (given their leads) the games could have been in the 3-4 point range.

 

Wainscott and Brown play so well together and you can see the difference. I don't see Wainscott back till after the Lex. Cath game on the 2/12 or even before the Districts for that matter.

Hope Wainscott heals quickly. It would be a shame to go into Districts without your top scorer.

Sorry, what do you mean by the other team isolated her. I saw that in your Boone post the other day and wasn't sure what that meant. (Sorry, not a coach, more of a fan.) Also, when you say double teamed do you mean they were face guarding her with two players all over the floor?

I feel your pain ebrown5606, injuries throw your chemistry out of whack, among other things. I made a comment to my friends last night that the referees aren't calling much and letting the girls play. That's fine to a point. Don't want to see any one else hurt. Your girls play hard and when Wainscott get back you will be a team to watch out for in your District and Region.

As for my Lady Raiders, they've been up and down but when they're good they're tough to stop. Very athletic and good shooters most of time. You all killed us on the boards in the first half, much to my dismay.

Wainscott was out and if you look at some tape of game Brown has a player posted on each side of her when SK was on offense. Second half great D by Davis of Boone she looked like her and Brown were attached at the hip. Maybe "isolated" isn't the right word but, no Wainscott and Brown 23 straight minutes smothered, the others (not known for excessive scoring) need to find 30 additional points. Not the same bench as it has been the last couple years when you had an injury and could call up a Figgins, Wainscott or Brown.

 

SK can play solid D. Stephenson, Pace, Orr, Blevins getting experience each game and playing well.

 

I look for Wainscott back maybe just before districts. Hopefully. :popcorn:

Replace word offense for defense in first line.

e brown, what happen to Sydney and when will she be back?

 

She was having a great season. We have lost two of our best players and it is killing us. We hope that Syd is able to come back soon.

Ankle injury...at Shelby Co. last Saturday at the start of the 2nd QTR. Hope she will be back by districts. In the mean time a real rough schedule to finish regular season. We came back and won the Shelby game that night however, the results of the next two haven't been as enjoyable. Boone Co. (L) and then Ryle (L). Play Walton-Verona this coming week.

That will be an interesting game. Walton is good but they do not play the schedule of SK. Good luck and go Nikki!
