School Yard

Heard Jake Giesler passed Dave Cowens on NCC's career rebound list and is now #2 all-time. Nice job.

Final from Erlanger

Hanna Theim 13 Dixie 12 Really? Is that the correct score?

How?????

That's funny. I would say you bleed KY blue.

Nice win and great career for both the King brothers.

NewCath played man the entire game until the last 2 minutes.

What game were you watching, most entertaining girls game I've seen all year. Both teams played very hard and physical. Very fun to watch. NewCath just played a little better defense than Ryle tonight. Ryle is very athletic and physical team, even more physical than NewCath. It's going to be one heck of a Regional Tournament.

He does have the flu but it wouldn't have mattered today, Desales shot unbelievable. Most of Brook's 3's were way past the NBA three point line, nothing NewCath could do about it. It was just one of those games.

It has already been voted on and it is not seeded. I believe the draw is on Monday 2/7.

Nice article, I didn't realize he was that tall, I always thought maybe 6'0. Good luck to him. Good shooter.

Is that 8/1 before school starts your Senior year or after school is out your Senior year?

I first want to say I have no dog in this fight and just wanted to see a good game. NCC was handling BBHS as expected by 14 or so when a NCC parent made a comment to a ref just like any other comment I've heard in the other hundreds of games I've been to. Instead of ignoring the fan, the ref turns around and instigates an argument with him telling him he doesn't have to take it and throws the parent out of the game. It was unbelievable. If that's not bad enough, he continues to put the screws to NCC the rest of the night. Very, very unprofessional. I don't know how that ref sleeps at night. Not taking anything away from Brossart, they hit some key shots but it should have never come to that.

I think there are at least 5 players that deserve POY honors. But the player that impacts the game the most both offensively,defensively and on the boards is usually a big man. Who would you want to start a team with? Answer that and that's your POY.

Wow, Deming had their chance but didn't get the ball to the right players in the last minute. The King's were caring them the entire 4th quarter and then no touches when it counted. Very entertaining game to watch. Good luck Stangs maybe you can meet the Breds in an all NK final.

All played on the same AAU team this year. Jake and Jake on the same day, very special.

Not sure what game you were watching but the reason NCC went to a zone is because Berger was hurting them when playing man. He had many nice backdoor cuts for layups after Giesler got 2 fouls and couldn't defend as agressively. The turning point of the game was NCC's tough zone and their ability to beat the press at will with easy layups.

Hightchew, Giesler and Doyle for NewCath. Berger and Arlinghouse for Holy Cross, 1 each from the other teams.

Congratulations Jake, great player and even a better person.

Was a little surprised by the score but really surprised by the lack of attendence. Nobody was there. HC had maybe 15 students and didn't see any Beechwood students that were not cheerleaders.

Hightchew and Bueter played very well.

I was impressed with St. Henry, tall athletic girls that can handle the ball and good passers. Really out played NCC most of the game until the last 2 minutes. Even when they were down 11 they were executing their offense well, they just couldn't finish. I believe the physical play of NCC is really something that is intimidating to most teams. It gives them a mental advantage.

I went to the Regional finals at Mason County last year with my 76 year old Dad. I would have loved to pay $3.00 to get a good parking spot.

I've got to say that this is the funniest thread ever. It's Brossart's turn to host the tournament and their gym is too small, so they go to the trouble to get NKU so all fans can get in and watch the games. And people complain about it. What a spoiled country we live in. Regents is a great place to hold the tournment, I wish the 9th would have thought of it.

We love it!
