wise ran a lot of talented kids of this year is what i'm hearing.

It seems funny to me that the people posting these comments are from Clark County.

I've been following the MC program from Rison to Griesser to Wise and I don't know what talented kids Wise ran off. Basically the same team players this year that played for Griesser last year. SO PROUD of our team! You would be hard pressed to find more character and better sportsmanship from any other team in Kentucky and that's what matters in life. Congrats on a great season we're so proud of you all!

I am not for sure how a snow day will affect the team, but I am hoping Montgomery County comes in ready to play.

Both teams have a snow day so it shouldn't be a factor. Game should be exciting. Montgomery by 8.

Not only closed but one report indicated 6 inches of snow in Mt Sterling

Yes, 6 inches in Mt.Sterling and the road crews have already been clearing the subdivision roads. If Mason and Campbell can get here I would think they will still be on.

So they wore their away uniforms... can someone who was there confirm if they sat on the bench closest to the end zone seats or the bench closest to the concession stand?

Wore blue uniforms, were guest on the scoreboard, sat near the endzone, and were introduced first, as is customary for the visitors. Mason County fan is just trying to stir it up.

Wow!! Congrats to Coach Hundley and the Woodford boys! Keep on moving on!

Montgomery's starters sat more than usual in the first half due to 2 fouls being called on Prewitt, Fruth, and Handshoe. Our point guard only played about 6 minutes in the first half. That definitely affected the first half, but the Indians pushed through it and got their 21st win tonight. Combs stepped up big and had 8 points and 9 rebounds.

Montgomery moves on to 9-1 in the region. Way to go Indians!

Brandon Rash (Montgomery County) is having an outstanding career at Transy!:clap:

Brandon Fruth has really emerged as possibly the 3rd, if not 2nd go to scorer. How many games now has he had in double digits?[/quote

According to the website, Brandon has been in double figures for 11 of the last 13 games. 14 games total this year.

Good quality win, Indians!

Last game of the Joe B. Hall Classic started around 9:15 p.m. Exciting day of basketball! Montgomery started out slow, but rallied @halftime and shot 61% in the 2nd half. Prewitt 15, Handshoe 13, Fruth 12, Crisp 9, Kelly 8, Jones 2. Letcher County Central were led by Johnson with 17 and Stewart 14.

Obviously Madison Central is terrific, but what chance does Montgomery County have in the 10th region?

Montgomery County has an excellent chance to represent the 10th region in March! Their losses have only been to top 20 teams, they've had some very impressive wins (GRC, Marshall Co, Owen Co., Ashland, Male, Lafayette, etc.). They have a great group of guys with a lot of varsity experience; 5 guards who are all capable of scoring in double figures many nights (Prewitt-top, Fruth, Handshoe, Crisp, and Jones); athleticism; quickness; a very-experienced, cool, calm and collected point guard (Fruth, sr.), another experienced point guard (Crisp, soph.); all 5 guys can handle the ball under pressure. Defense is good, but still room for improvement. Down low, you have football player, Kelly or baseball player Combs who give the team another dimension. They played Central to within 10 pts. the first time; this time pulled within 3 in the 3rd quarter, but couldn't get over the hump. The difference was in single digits much of the game. Also of note, the Regional Tourn. is at Home this year! Exciting year for the Indians, they just need to play as a team so they can click on all cylinders.

I know Jacobs missed almost a month, but he's had a huge impact in the games he's played in. I'm thinking primarily of their game against Montgomery County. I was basing it on production, that's why Black and Gillispie aren't on there yet.

If I am picking a team, I am picking Prewitt first. But I am a homer

How many games has #7 played this year? Are these rankings on potential or production on the current season?

Montgomery wins by 7.

All Tourney Team for these two:

Madison Central: Kenjah Bosly, Dominque Hawkins, Quan Taylor.

Montgomery County: Omar Prewitt, Brandon Fruth.

Madison Central is certainly athletic and deserve their high rankings. Montgomery County is playing very well with a tough schedule so far. The new coach (Tony Wise) is doing an excellent job in bringing Montgomery along at a good pace.

Yes it is a little crazy, and also both teams are royal blue and white with red trim. I'm pulling for Montgomery County to pull this one out by 5.

Qryche11 I'll go one further and say the Indians will win:

Final.

Montgomery Co (11-2): Prewitt 18, Fruth 15, Handshoe 15, Jones 11, Kelly 9, Combs 2.

Marshall Co (9-1): Clark 21, York 16, Buchanan 12, Renfrow 5, Nelson 2, Northcutt 2, Logan Taylor 1.

Congrats to Montgomery Co.

Montgomery Co vs Madison Central in the Gateway Holiday Classic finals Friday @6:00 PM.

Congrats Indians on the win! Glad to see Handshoe backout on the floor! Good luck tonite against Marshall Co.!

Agree, good to see him back! Other positives: the team's defense is improving each game and this team is learning how to play through adversity! Go Indians!

Montgomery - Prewitt 24, Jones 13, Fruth 12, Crisp 7, Kelly 6, Handshoe 5. Prewitt leads the Indians back in the 4th quarter, Fruth hits a buzzer better 3 to take it to OT.

Owen - Shelton 19, S Williams 11, C Williams 9, Ripy 9, Osborne 7, Ball 3, Taylor 2.

Final.

Knott Co and Montgomery Co play Wed. @ 7 PM at Dunbar. Should be very good game. This is a semi final game.

Four Indians in double figures again! Prewitt with 24, Crisp 18, Fruth 12, and Handshoe 12. Consistent scoring lately from Crisp (12 vs. Ashland) and Fruth (18 vs. Ashland) are making the Indians a more well-rounded offensive team. Jones is also on the rise as a game changer.

Kentucky Bank Shootout. MC had 5 players in double figures. Prewitt 24, Fruth 18, Handshoe 12, Crisp 12, and Jones 10.

Congrats Indians!
