7 - Holy Cross 5 - Deming 3 - Ryle 2 - Scott 1 - New Cath Tiebreaker - Deming

No, we have one really good freshman. Oh, sorry, you meant Henry Clay...:lol:

Home court or not, without Chambers, SK is a very different team...I say Scott by five.

Big win for Holmes...that's 8 straight against the Colonels Final Holmes 64-60

Holmes 63-60 TO CovCath :29 to go

60-60 with a little over a minute to go

Connelly 8-13 shooting...18 points. 7 for Thelen

Holmes 47-43 end of 3

It's Thelen time!! Holmes up 42-41 after the Thelen dunk.

Connelly is back and is having a great night.

tie ballgame 37-37 4:36 3rd Qtr

Connelly led CovCath with 11 points, but left the game with an injury with 5 minutes left in the 2nd Qtr. Jaleel Gray led Holmes with 13.

I am listening to the game on CovCath Internet Radio from my hotel room in Detroit. Halftime score was Holmes 37-27

I had him with three turnovers which did not lead the team.

Played about 14 minutes.

The boxscore is missing a few players...the total points only add up to 50 for the four players listed.

I'll take the Browns.

May be rescheduled after the All "A" tournament.

One of Dixie's wins did come at the hands of the #18 team in this ranking system. I am not saying to rate them high or anything, but if it is almost the middle of January and you are still undefeated, unless you are playing the Little Sisters of the Poor every game, you should be in the state rankings somewhere.

Please look in the final score thread titled "Holy Cross 44 Lloyd 41"

Does the extra day help or hurt either team?

I have to agree with some of my bgp.com brethren that the Litkenhous Ratings are a joke. My issue is how can the last two undefeated teams in the Commonwealth (Dixie and John Hardin) not be ranked somewhere in this poll? Dixie is a glaring absence and if you look at the "Sweet 16 in November Contest" entries, the consensus for the 5th region winner was North Hardin who John Hardin beat. :confused:
