Final

Birds down 39-35 at the line miss 2 FT's never recovered.

 

AJ Collins had a nice game, he can shoot it. Maniacci was silent in the First half but had 9 in the 2nd half and they were Big points.

 

Birds struggled making shots today.

 

Jags were 9-11 from FT Line.

 

I Believe Collins had 15 to léad Cooper. He had 3 treys.

 

Luke Turner led the Birds with 12, Towles had 9, Lewis 8 and Witte 7.

 

Coach Sullivan is a riot on the Cooper sideline. I hope he lives to see 50.

Sully is intense.

Not the Birds year this year. Congrats to coach Sullivan.

On the brightside the Highlands Frosh win by 15 improving to 11-2 and the JV won a close battle by 3 led by 6'2 195lb soph Seth Hope.

Hope the Birds have some better days ahead. Lot of season left....

Nice win for Cooper.

Jags' coach reminds me of KSU's Frank Martin.

Not a bad comparison. He does have "the look."

I cant believe the way Sullivan was arguing with Shields, the referee. They looked like 2 brothers screaming at each other during a timeout. No technical?

 

Coach Flynn definitely Did not get his moneys worth for his T the other night at CovCath.

 

Maybe Sully is allowed to get away with it or Shields enjoys it I dont know but they were going at it and spit was flying. LOL

Sounded like a kodak moment...anyone?

This speaks volumes to me.

Saw the stat sheet tonight that listed the Birds 1 for 16 from 3 point land. Good luck beating anyone shooting that poorly.

It was a fast paced game that just lacked scoring.

 

Pretty Good synopsis of the game and How it went. Cooper has a nice staff of coaches.
