This is exciting for UC basketball!

Ok, thanks.

That may be, but he was referencing Matt in the article: "The Wildcats just cut lose two players -- Kevin Galloway and Mike Pilgrim -- to get down under the maximum 13 scholarships to 12." However, I just checked the article and the error has been fixed.

I think Walton will give everyone a surprise this year. They are returning everyone from last years team who did better than most thought they would- and with a new coach- it could be interesting.

That was my understanding. I thought that too when reading the article. I also liked how Mr. Katz referred to a "Mike Pilgrim" that just recently left the Wildcats- funny.

This is a link to Andy Katz' article on this issue- interesting read. http://sports.espn.go.com/ncaa/recruiting/news/story?id=4298168

Is this a list of players considering UK? Hill is #27 not 28, and has already signed with Arizona.

It got me and a buddy of mine. I came home right when they were talking about it on PTI- my jam dropped and I picked up the phone to call my buddy but he was calling me at the same time. We were freakin out!

From what I hear, they have some talent coming back next year and they understand a little more what it takes to win games. Good luck to them next year. I hope to catch a few games.

And I hear he is the choice for next year as the Head Coach at WV. He is currently the assistant for the Girls team, but possibly came with the intent that this position would open up.

Sorry to see WV lose, but they finished the season out great. I expect big things from this team in the future!

It seems that WV has been playing really well lately! Good luck agains SK

The 32nd district (Grant County, Walton-Verona, Williamstown, Simon-Kenton) is pretty weak this year with all the teams being about as bad as each other (And Im a homer from that district). I really dont know who will win it this year.

From what the present AD says (she is retiring after this year), the job is his if he wants it. He is technically able to hold both positions at one time, but with a growing school like WV it would be pretty difficult I would think. My guess is WV has a new head coach next year. Walton could have two present or past HS head coaches on staff at the school that aren't coaching- Sullivan (Campbell County) is the schools Assistant Principal and Bennett (Walton) could be the AD.

This performance by Walton really surprises me- how do you beat a team by 10 twice in a season and then lose to them by 27. It doesn't make sense! I know that WV is young and inexperienced, but they are better than this! And about WVs coaching staff- I played for Coach Bennett and I always liked him as a person and a coach and I dont think that he is the problem at WV- I dont know what is. Good luck to both the Bearcats and the Demons the rest of the season.

The game was very sloppy- a lot of turnovers from both teams and Ludlow couldnt hit a shot. Not a very impressive game by the officials either.

I was at WVs game the other night and at times they had a 7th grader(Mullikan), 2 8th graders (Clinkenbeard & Sandlin), a Frosh (Ginn), and a Soph (Dixon) on the floor- and that looked like one of the better lineups they had. WV should be really talented in the years to come.

Cameron Burns I believe is his name.

Honestly- I wasnt impressed by GC at all when I watched them play on Tuesday against Owen, but it sounds like it was a pretty bad game on GCs part- not the norm. I say SK wins it.

I would say that Beechwood and Holy Cross are the favorites- I would love to see Beechwood win it!

In my opinion they always do with the talent and numbers they have in Walton.

Walton is really impressing me. For a team that everyone discounted bc of their youth and inexperience, they are playing really well right now.

Wow! Walton is playing really well right now- maybe they are playing with a little more confidence since that win over SK last week.

Nice win Walton! Congrats!

Any results on this game?
