From what I understand, Carroll County from the 8th regional should have a good team. They have about 10 seniors who have been playing together since they were very young.

Amen brother!

Without a doubt politics and reputation is involved. This would seem fairly obvious by the names on the list because there is no way all coaches see these players. Except for the kids, who really takes any of these lists seriously?

I agree with Mike, I'll have to take Owen in this one simply because of their height. Owen should contain Burns easily. Should be a good game, too bad I have to work.

Great job Will - from GC. Good luck to whatever the future may bring.

:ylsuper: Congradulations to a fine young man, this is a great accomplishment

Maybe the sophomore took the shot even though it wasn't planned that way. That has been known to happen on occasion.

We just returned from down south and heard about this horrible tragedy. Our thoughts and prayers are with the families and all of the Gallatin community.

Gallatin always enjoys an advantage of playing at home (boys and girls). Been this way for years. However, Williamstown did miss some opportunities.

Congrats to Trimble County. Great win.

DC Craig and Zack Wise of Carroll County are two of the top players in the region. Wise was invited to a Sophomore showcase at UK last year, I think. I'm not much of a baseball man, but I'd like to get out to a game this year when it warms up to watch them as I have heard a lot of good things. This group has been playing together for many many years and this could be their year to make some noise.

So many things discussed here are completely out of hand in high school sports, whether it is football, basketball or baseball. You can come to our games and see parents sitting on the first or second row coaching their child from beginning to end, parents who know nothing and I mean NOTHING about the game screaming at the officials and/or coaches and making absolute fools of themselves to where others around them are totally embarrassed for them to even criticizing other players (which to me is the absolute worst thing you can do). You can look around at the parents and if another player makes a good play or scores, they won't even cheer unless it is their child. I've watched this for a few years now and am so glad my children are out of high school as this was really not the case when they were coming through the program.

Carroll hasn't had a true post player for several years but #20 always battles and is as tough as they come. The majority of the players do not have much varsity experience but they continue to improve. It was good to see Wise in the varsity game, hopefully he will earn more playing time as the season continues and help out under the basket.

The refs called a tight game as they should. GC gets away with too much hacking and has done this for years, why? the reason has always escaped me. Hopefully they will continue to call them tight in GC.

Good game in Warsaw tonight. Wish the Panthers could have pulled it out though.

If price is no object -- once you own a Mac, you'll never go back. Best thing I ever did was change from a PC, got my daughter an IMac for college and she has converted several of dorm mates.

This was a great game to watch. All of Carroll's team showed a lot of heart by fighting back from a large deficit. CC sure needed to get a rebound at the end. Great to see Carroll playing team ball and the bench up cheering. Keep working!!! Osborne, great game!

I believe everyone knows that Walton and Gallatin are both in the 8th region. You have missed the point. Being away from Warsaw absolutely does have an effect. Playing at Warsaw does benefit the home team on an extreme level. Coach Jones is an excellent, excellent coach but he works the refs like no other, as well as teaching his teams to hustle on each play. I have not seen the Wildcats this year but I suspect nothing has changed. This game will be a dandy, wish I could be there.

:ylsuper: Agreed.

I agree! Both teams played really hard. Carroll Co. players still need to get some of the "football out" and recover from the many injuries but it was great to see everyone contribute to a team effort. These games are why I love to watch high school sports. Good job to both teams!!!

It appears as if Eminence has improved if the summer games are any indication. But GC should win this one by 10+

I for one really enjoyed seeing some of the former players. It was a great crowd and a lot of fun. Hope they do it again sometime.

Prayers from Warsaw

I sure hope he is o.k. Seems like a great kid who has never received the credit he deserves.
