DragonFire Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 Christian County is the first team from the second region to advance to the finals since University Heights did in 1992. And will be favored to be the first second region team to win it since UHA did in that same year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Scribe Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 Christian County beat Madisonville in the region finals. Madisonville is coached by Marty Cline, starting guard on that 1992 UHA team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DragonFire Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 This was a pretty good one I saw posted by Bowling Green football coach Kevin Wallace: "In the 4th qt of FB and BB playoff games, Christian Co has trailed against BG, WC, Lex Cath, and Eastern. Won every game. Hickey wins...." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jpa2825 Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 When was the last time a team played in the Football and Basketball finals in the same academic year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Professor Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 I sure thought the finals would be Eastern vs Bullitt East. Rowan County has surprised me more than anyone in the tournament. With Christian County you knew they were good and had a shot at the championship game, but not Rowan. Of course, the bottom bracket was a lot easier than the top, but still....

drill sergeant Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 When was the last time a team played in the Football and Basketball finals in the same academic year? Central did it in the school 2008-2009 school year. Won the state championship in football and was runner up in basketball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Polar Cat Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 The only bad thing about the Sweet 16, the format. Seeding would make for a better championship game imo, but how would you do it? You have to be kidding!!! It doesn't get any better than this!!!!!!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DragonFire Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 BTW, just occurred to me, wasn't that last time a 2nd Region team made the finals (UHA in '92) the famous game played at the same time as Kentucky/Duke, ensuring that almost no one was paying attention in Freedom Hall?

dd734 Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 Eastern by far the best team? They squeaked by in the first round by three and then lost by 3 in the semi's. They are anything but "by far the best team". :thumb::thumb::thumb::thumb::thumb: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember everyone in the suites watching the UK/Duke game and the crowd for the finals was very small. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
