What a night to not be able to find the basket, Senior Night! Montgomery County shot 20.8% in the first half. Missed shot after missed shot. We came out in the second half and looked like Montgomery County shooting 51.9% but the hole was too big to dig out of. We even had a good game handling the ball committing only 5 turnovers while forcing Harrison County into 13.

Wow! Didn't expect this! Good win for HC!

Credit Harrison County's defense. They get after it. Held our Mustangs to 36 points a week or so back in Alexandria.

 

Harrison County playing their best ball of the season right now!!!! Will be a tough out, if they can clear the Pendleton Co hurdle.

Montgomery was the clear cut favorite to win the 10th region pre-season. Good team, returned players with varsity experience, and home court advantage for the region. A gold mine for the new coach. I believe this coach is in a situation that is way over his head. MC may still take it all, but I will be very surprised!!

I wish I could say that tonight, but I can't. I think Harrison could have stayed in the locker room the first half and we could not have made the shot.

Well, you have to give the credit where the credit is due. A hand in the face is a hand in the face. I wasn't at the game but seriously, someone was there to play the defense. Harrison had to of taken something away from Montgomery.

Wow. Huge win for Harrison!

Harrison seems to be hitting their stride at the right time.

I agree. Coach Wise is definitely in over his head with this job. I saw this team play this summer at the KBA and I watched them just recently and they were much better this summer with Keith Griesser.

If I'm not mistaken, Jake Handshoe was on the bench for the last play of this game.

Unless he was fouled out, I cannot understand any reason to have Handshoe on the bench when the game is on the line. Makes you scratch your head.....

Believe there is some personal issues there. That is sad that a coach would leave one of the best players on the bench in a clutch situation.

Hope they can get it figured out by next week. Handshoe is a tremendous player and young man.
