The Cougars visit the Msgr. Finn Activity Center on Saturday night. Your thoughts?

Conner should be able to use their size to a big advantage in this one. Look for Robinson and Hodges to have big nights. Feed the block. I am sure HC will come out in zone. Conner will need to be patient and get the high/low working. Great gym.

The key will be how Conner deals with the press. If they can utilize their bigs to break it like Highlands and NCC did and convert then they should win. However, I dont think threes will come easy for the Cougars and I know how they like to step out and fire em up. HC does a nice job with their zone, its the most active I have seen in years.

 

I think HC will rebound from their loss to Highlands and force enough turnovers to win.

 

HC 62

Conner 54

HC should have Avery back for this one and I think the tribe get back on the winning track at home.

 

HC 67

Conner 55

I haven't watched HC a lot this year but I'm not sure they will play a zone. If so it will be a trapping zone. Their M.O. is to pressure your guards and get turnovers.

In the topsy turvy 9th I will go with Conner in this one by 6....66-60. Think Hodges & Robinson will have big games. Flesch will have to handle HC pressure and get good shots for big guys like Highlands was able to do. Look for Burger to have a big game for HC.

I'll take Holy Cross by 7

Conner by 3
