Nice win Coach Davis and Boys. Some people need to wait before they start bashing coaches. He is one of the best coaches we know.

Jeff Davis new coach at South Laurel
You don't have to go by his AAU record, his record at SK is enough said! Any school is lucky to get him. Boys respond well to him and love him as well as the parents.

Jeff Davis new coach at South Laurel
Congratulations Coach Davis! He will definitely be missed at SK! South Laurel is lucky to have a coach who is great with the kids and has an incredible knowledge of the sport. Looking forward to watching your trip to Rupp!

Oldham County 54 Simon Kenton 51
IMO SK had the chance to win, but most of the players on the floor looked like they had no desire to be there. The passes were lazy and turned over many times, also not a lot of hustle. There was no effort to get the ball into the hands of some of the shooters that are needed to win a game. You cannot wait till the last two to three minutes of a game to decide to play because you don't want your season to end. At that point it is to late. Oldham County used their bench wisely, SK uses maybe one or two off the bench, could have made the difference in the game to have fresh legs and boys out there that may play with desire to win.

2011 All 8th Region Team
I agree 100%. He has continuously showed composure, rebounding, scoring and working hard. He has more points scored this year than probably half those boys on the list.

Walton Verona 62 Grant County 51
They did the same with SK student section the night before. The Sheriff literally stood right in front of the student section and watched them the whole time. Then when the game was over all three Sheriff's stood on the court right in front of the SK student section. Totally unneccesary. The SK students were nothing but well behaved. They could have said a lot in light of the situation but did not. But unfortunately the WV students chose to call the players on the floor names so that everyone could hear. Where was the WV administration? Is that considered good sportsmanship. It seems like WV likes to bash the other student section (SK and Grant) but never addresses their own.

Conner 60 Simon Kenton 42
Really when you think about it most of the game last night Conner had mostly Seniors on the floor. SK at many times had 3 sophmores on the floor. SK has quite a few seniors on their team and usually starts many of them but a lot of minutes come from other players which are mostly sophmores. SK will be fine. Team did not shot well and most players seemed to not give a lot of effort. Rabe played a good game, as well as Ayers who is really stepping up as a sophmore. Monson handled the ball well with no turn overs and played good defense as a sophmore. But this game is over and it is time to move on to the next matchup. As for saying SK is no matchup for "ANY" NKY team, we will see what has to be said at the end of the year.

NKY Frosh Championship
SK played well in the JV Championship game. They lost by 5 but should hold their heads high. Hope Boone County realizes that the SK team is made up of 5 freshmen, 3 sophmores and only 3 juniors. All Freshmen got plenty of playing team and will be extremely exciting to watch over the next three years.
-
Top Nky freshman teams.. Who do you think will finish in the top 3?
I think if the five freshmen boys (Ayers, Bowling, Monson, Sampson, Swanson) playing for SK JV/Varsity were playing Freshmen for SK they would be the team to beat hands down.

Simon Kenton Vs. Dixie Heights (1/15)
I believe SK will pull it out again. The last time they meet Dixie, Pike was playing. So with or without him, I believe they will win.

Simon Kenton 60 Walton 37 (JV)
Don't believe either of them missing would have made much of a difference in the JV game. SK beat them the first time this year with the players there. Just really don't see it making a difference.

Simon Kenton 57 Gallatin County 40 (JV)
It seemed everytime the five that were on the floor started to come back and played hard they were taken out. Not sure why you don't keep the kids in that are scoring and defending better, to turn around and put another five in that are cold and turning the ball over. Still a good season. First loss

Gallatin County 68 Simon Kenton 64
Basham hurt his back over the weekend during practice so he did not play at all. SK could have used some of his 3 point shots, but they need to move on. The officials did not help out in either game. They called little fouls but never call the big fouls. SK needs to get ready and move on. Good luck tonight at Boone.
-
Simon Kenton 55 Scott County 52 (JV)
Great come back for SK. They were down in the first quarter 14 to 4. They fought hard and every player gave a great effort and never gave up. Sampson was big at the end of the game. Great three pointer by Monson to keep them close at the end and a huge three pointer by Riley to win. Every player contributed and did a great job against a tough Scott County

Simon Kenton 78 Dixie 70
Was at both JV & Varsity games. The Refs were not good at all. In the JV game the Pioneer boys could not look at a Dixie player without getting called for a foul. They missed tons of walks, so forth. Even though they had different refs for the Varsity game it was definitely not a well called game. JV was down at half time and came out fired up second half and took over the game. Way to go Pioneers.

Hester (Simon Kenton Grad)
Not sure if it is true, but heard NKU offered him a place on their team. He is coaching during the Spring/Summer for an AAU team. Wanted to be home more to be able to adequately coach the boys.

AAU Grade Exceptions???
You know some people hold their kids back in elementary school because they may have a learning disability or having a hard time. So you wish to punish them by telling them they can't play with their classmates and friends. That is what happened with my son. He does not think he is awesome or better than most. He is a kids that is realistic about the fact that when he goes to college it will be about getting an education, not basketball. I will for one say that playing older kids is what makes the player better not jplaying someone their own age that is even with that player or not as good.
