Good win for the Hounds.

35 points = VERY sneaky:D

Ouch.

This is no disrespect to Holmes. They have a very fine team. However, there is much more to basketball than Sports Center dunks. My only point was that EC does a lot of little things (i.e. fundamentals) very well.

The polls are simply subjective opinions; nothing more, nothing less. All that matters when discussing who is number one is whether the team has a reasonable chance of winning the state. The answer for Elliott Co is a resounding yes (as it is for several other teams). That being said, Elliott would get my vote for number one, particularly on the basis of knowing how to play the game and being fun to watch. However, I am sure the fans of several other teams could make a strong case for their team being voted number one.

Congrats to Nicholas

OUCH!!!!:eek:

Random thoughts: 1. Elliott, as stated earlier, is the most entertaining team in the state to watch. 2. Regarding meeting an equally athletic team with more size in the state tournament last year, they basically won 31 minutes of the game. Just a weird finish prevented them from the W. 3. I wonder how many comments about running up the score, etc. were made in years past when Boyd/Ashland, etc blew out Elliott (yes, what goes around does indeed come around). 4. Good thing Elliott isn't a private school.

I think this one could be close...........

Agree. Plus Montgomery/Mt Sterling and Paris/Bourbon

For anyone to say they can't compete at Rupp in March, I would submit last years's Mason Co game as evidence to the contrary.

Elliott will not lose to another eastern Ky team.

At least both teams can score. Some teams couldn't score this many points against their own jv

I think he/she meant downtown Maysville.

Sounds like Downing's defense has made a difference for MC.

Oh yes, the game to decide the token state "runner-up". Another case of the government (KHSAA) trying to manipulate the market (sound familiar??)

MC's success will depend in a large degree upon the 3 sophs. Middleton will be by far their strongest player, that is a given. Barner will definitely help. Hamm will help with ball handling and some scoring. A previous poster mentioned their second best player. I am not really sure who that is. After Middleton, I think their second best player will vary from night to night. I think they have several fundamentally sound players who could fit that bill.

Good thing the two 6'5" football players weren't there.

FT shooting, turnovers, and rebounding hurt MC.
