Is the"charge" a lost art in HS basketball ?
I totally agree and have been saying that for years. PLayers sliding in underneeth the basket after the offensive player has left the ground is not only not a charge, but down right dangerous. Go up and contest the shot or get out of the way.

NewCath 68 Conner 64 (OT)
I was impressed with Conner, they shoot the ball very well. Maybe the best shooting team the Breds have faced all year. It was a very good game until the referrees tried to determine who wins. Terrible calls on both sides. I think they need to go back to 2 refs. There's not enough experienced refs to have 3 at every game.

KHSAA Regional configurations
Isn't the chance to play at the BOKC worth the extra 63 miles?

Major venue pricing vs. high school venue for regionals
The concessions are not cheep at the BOKC, but are no more than going to any other major college game. They also have foods that aren't offered at high school games. Like it or not, a nice new venue has nice new prices to go with it. I personally don't mind, I can eat at home if I want to, plus if you factor in that you won't have to leave between games and pay again, it's the same price $5 a game.

Major venue pricing vs. high school venue for regionals
How are you coming up with $63? $8.00 each plus $2.00 ticketmaster charge per ticket x 4 tickets is $40.00.

9th Region JV tournment
NCC plays Holmes Friday night, the game was suppose to be Sat. but since they play on Friday night anyway- the JV game is going to count for the Regional Semi final. I don't know who plays in the other semi final game.

Holmes 77 Highlands 68
Lother got shoved because Riley couldn't get away from him and was frustrated, it should have been 2 shots and the ball for Highlands.

Newport Central Catholic 44 Bishop Brossart 42
Congrats to both teams, very entertaining game. It's the first time I've seen Rieger play this year. He's a really nice player, good size and quickness and not a bad shooter from 3. Looks like he'll be playing at the next level. The posts about Jimmy Pangallo are just unbelievable. Jimmy cares more about kids than any other person I have ever met. Sure he gets excited, but that's called passion. If you can't like Jimmy then you can't like many people, most people love him.

9th Region Tourney Advantages/Disadvantages of playing on a college court!!
I agree, it will help Holmes. I've seen them play against Scott Co. and Highlands and both times they struggled against the press. A bigger court helps them use their speed.

Conner @ Scott 2/6
Both teams have shown they can be very good at times and not so good at times. I guess it's what team shows up. I predict overtime to the home team.

NCC @ Bishop Brossart (2/07) Predictions
I hope it's not that low scoring, Not fun for thr the players or the fans.

NCC @ Bishop Brossart (2/07) Predictions
I guess they never thought the basketball program would be this successful to build such a small gym, or maybe like most private schools, they just didn't have the money.

Newport Central Catholic 77 Bellevue 47
He did not play, but I have no idea why.

All "A" Classic and Bank of Kentucky Center
I agree, as much as I would like to see the tournament moved to NKU, it really doesn't make sense. Richmond is a much better location for all the teams.
-
Shelby Valley 55 Newport Central Catholic 36
31% is about what they always shoot unfortunately, they're having a tough time on offense right now.
-
Jon Hood
He's a very good player that UK will have to put some weight on to prepare him for the SEC physical play. Can see a possible red shirt for him his freshman year.
-
Lexington Christian 51 Newport Central Catholic 49
NewCath outplayed LCA and had the game won but only made 2 of 7 FT in the last minute. Heartbreaking loss for the Breds.

Best Sophmores in KY?
A basketball player is made during the summer. So it's either AAU or the playground. No one is at the playground anymore so AAU it is.

36th District Draw
Yes, both boys and girls.

36th District Draw
It is a NewCath. I would like to see the district tournaments eliminated and just have one big regional tournament. Maybe seed the top 4 teams. It would be more interesting to play other teams in the post season than the same ones every year.

36th District Draw
NewCath vs Bellevue on one side, winner goes to finals Newport vs Dayton winner plays Highlands

NewCath 53 Newport 47
I agree Connor played some very good defense Sat. night.

A "True" Baseball State Tourney, AT LAST!
Totally agree, I think this is their way of not going to a class system. This definitely favors possibly a small school with that stud pitcher.

Should there be an AA State Tournament?
All players want to win every tournament they play in, no matter what time of year it is. Why have an annual Christmas tournament, it doesn't mean anything. Well it does to the kids and the coaches.It's really an All A and AA tournament and it means alot to every player. To most of these teams it "is" their state tournament because most of them won't make it out of their region in March. I say have a 3A/4A tournament also, if the big schools don't want to it's their loss.
