Mr. Athletics

Final score from the Gallatin Steel Tournament. Does anyone have any details?

South Oldham was the runner up last year. They lost to Shelby in the finals while SK lost to Shelby in the semi-finals. South Oldham has an outstanding veteran coach in Frank Wright. Look for them to go deep in the post season again this year.

Congratulations to Coach Dave Miller and his staff and team for a good win.:ylsuper:His teams always play hard and are well coached.

No doubt about it. Steve and Tara do a great job at Scott County each and every year. Other coaches that come to mind are Chris Stallings at Bullitt East, Kerrie Stewart at Trimble County, Mark Wilhoit at Williamstown, and Jamie Walz Richey at Highlands. All of these work extremely hard year round to make their teams the best they can be.

Look for E-town to win the very tough 5th region. They have talent and are well coached.

I like the boys from Warsaw to win the tournament.

The regional tournament is at Shelby County this year. It will be tough for anyone in the 8th to beat them on their home court.

Somewhat shaky. I look for Owen to beat them. Owen has all the parts for a good team.

Gallatin can name the score---Eminence has pretty much a middle school team playing varsity.

I agree. The Berea Holiday Tournament is one of the best in the state. Coach Jerry Bingham and his staff do a great job hosting the event. A 32 team tournament takes a lot of work by a lot of people.:thumb:

Shelby has tremendous talent and seems to bplaying the best right now. They have struggled somewhat in March. Oldham plays slow ball and relies on strong defense to win games. Forrest has a habit of padding his schedule with "A" schools. It does seem to work for them. Anderson is due for a regional title. Glen Drury has been around in the 8th region as long as anyone. It will come down to these 3 as it does most years.

Every new coach needs time for the team to adjust to the style of coaching. Sometimes it just takes a bit longer depending on the situation.

By the way, congratulations to Trimble on the win.

Was Gallatin at full strength? I heard they had some players out.

I don't think the coach has ever taken a shot, made a turnover, or missed a rebound in a game yet. Let's give him/her a break.

You are correct about their middle school program from what I hear.

Final score- Carroll County 47 Harlan 44

They have the BEST band in the region IMO. Those kids get into it! They are seated directly behind the visitors' bench. Coaches usually have to take their team out to the free throw line so they can communicate during time outs.:thumb: If some school has a better band at their home games, I would like to know about it.

I don't understand why so many schools have added black to their color scheme. I think Duke at the college level did it and it must have filtered down to the high school level which makes no sense to me.:scared:

I believe the Wildcats will keep on rolling against the big boys as well. They seem to have it all together.

Summer ball doesn't mean squat. Coaches and teams don't always take it serious.

I have heard Harlan has a strong inside game. Any truth to that?

Gallatin by 20 as long as they are not looking ahead.

Trimble is still winless I believe and I think they are a senior ballclub. Hopefully, they can turn it around. When I have seen them play, they really seem to work hard.They have played a tough early season schedule.

Did Walton Verona hang with them for any period of time? How did Hargett and Heeger do?
