They are a tough, well coached team. I know their record isn't sterling but they do play in the 7th Region.

Ballard has to be one of the tallest teams in the State. Their frontline is 6-3,6-3, 6-1. The scored one basket from outside 4 feet, the rest were free throws and 2 footers. With a couple of outside shooters this team would be tough to beat.

Final score from a hard fought game in Union tonight. Ryle was led by Cheeseman's 20, Crittendon's 16, and Jump's 11.

Thanks Frank:) I have stayed away from the end of this thread for obvious reasons. We love Ashley and what she brings to our team. Without a doubt Ryle's most improved. She has and I'm sure will continue to bring it every night. Incredible game Saturday night. If she wouldn't have gotten her arm stepped on she might have had more:)

Sounds like it was a good game. Hope the Greenwell girl can finish the season.

Ryle had 16 3 pointers overall. Tough week ahead. Monday, at home, in a make up game with Louisville Ballard, Tuesday, on the road at Notre Dame, Friday, closing out the regular season at Campbell County.

Final score from last night's game. Theim led the way for NCC with 13points. NCC put 13 in the scoring column.

Final score from last night's matchup. Stephenson led the Lady Pioneers with 14 points. Dixon had 13 for the Lady Bearcats.

Agree.

Abby Jump amd Liz Meyer are our Seniors. Cheeseman was lights out. She had 6 of her 8 in the 1st half.

Ryle, Boone, NCC, NDA, and then it's pretty much up in the air. Can anyone win on a given night? Sure, but don't hold your breath.

Ryle's pressure defense was too much for Fern Creek from the start. Ashley Cheeseman led Ryle with 24 pts. She set the school record for hitting 8- 3 pointers tonight breaking teammate, Abby Jump's record of 7 in a game. Jenna Crittendon chipped in with 11 pts, 11 rbds, and 6 assists. Abby Jump had 13 on Senior Night. Ryle improves to 19-5 on the season. Fern Creek Center, Tiona McCune led the Lady Eagles with 15 pts, and 5 blocked shots.

Final score from Union.

Once again Ryle is up against a team I am not familiar with. It will be a Senior Night matchup with 2 Wright State signees. (Jump from Ryle and McCune from Fern Creek). Any thoughts or ideas on this one?

My wife commented on the way home how well received everyone from Ryle was from the Scott fans. Go make some noise in your District Tournament! Nice meeting you, as well.

As a total outsider looking in, has anyone considered that maybe the players aren't playing up to their potential or that they may not be as good as advertised early in the season? When a team starts the season with high expetations and don't live up to them the Coach is always the first to take the heat. As it should be. However, the players play the game and they should share the burden of a disappointing season.

This was only the second opportunity I have had to watch Lauren Tibbs play and I will say she is pretty special. Great footwork, soft hands, and great effort. Good luck the rest of the season and in your career with Marquette.

Final score from Taylor Mill. Ryle was led by Jenna Crittendon's 23 pts., 7 steals, and 8 assists. Scott was led by Lauren Tibbs. Don't know Miss Tibbs stats but she scored a bunch.

Quite an honor, congratulations to Miss Hammond!

I was talking to Cooper's JV coach after the Ryle Cooper game last Saturday and in our conversation I said that Cooper is not too far away from competing with the 9th Region's best squads. Sounds like, from their Freshman team this season, I was closer than even I thought. Good luck to both teams in the Finals.

I watched enough basketball over the years to know that ANYTHING can happen on any night

Absolutely.

Nice piece.

You're right. My quote was from a fan's perspective who love the up and down , run them in the ground type of game, that's all.

Agreed, but I do favor either Ryle or Boone in the Region on a big floor. I played my days in a true crackerbox ( Beechwoods old gym) so I know first hand how you can beat a top team in such circumstances.
