Scoring by qtr's so far.

 

Birds 12 13 15

Dogs 18 19 15

 

The 3pt shooting is the difference in this game. Birds are playing them even here in the 2nd half. They better pull a magic rabbit out of the hat if they want to win this game.

Is Highlands staying in the zone? I suspect if Holmes can maintain this advantage until about 4 mins that they will have to come out of it and Holmes should be able to pull away.

55-41 Watson makes 1 of 2 FT's

 

55-43 now as Gordon scores for Birds. Back to 12 pt game.

57-43 Pittman with an And one but FT is no good.

 

Kowolonek scors for Birds on other end 57-45 now Dogs.

59-45 Pittman makes 2 FT's.

 

Birds cannot cut into the lead. Closest they have gotten is 6 pts since they cut it to 4 late in the 1st qtr.

Drive and spin in the lane he scores. 61-45 Holmes.

 

Oh and Rico is coming back in the game with 5:03 left.

Stewart makes 2 FT's for Birds now 61-47.

No Problem, thank Walter he is at the game and giving me the updates via text. Im jujst sitting here watching NKY sports legends...my old teammate Brad Hissong from Bellevue.

Big Steal by Rice and lay in so its 63-54 Holmes. Big bucket for the Dogs there.

The Dogs seem to be playing with a little more fire tonight. Rice really having a big game and a huge thorn in the side of the Bluebirds the past 2 yrs.

63-55 Holmes- Grote makes 1 FT after foul on JJ. 1:12 left in the game.

The Dogs seem to be playing with a little more fire tonight. Rice really having a big game and a huge thorn in the side of the Bluebirds the past 2 yrs.
