Touch The Line

Agreed, with .5 you can only get a tip!

Nice District win for the Indians tonight, two complete games in a row heading into Deming tonight. This should be a great game tonight @ the Devil Dome.

One of the most complete games Montgomery has played this year!

Doubt if Pike will guard Cheatum. Cheatum does not have the size and strength to play down low against Pike therefore will probably stay out on the perimeter meaning that more than likely Stansberry will guard him most the time, still will be a nice matchup. IMO Dixie will throw several players at Cheatum to wear him down. Lloyd will have considerable match-up problems at all positions. I have to go with Dixie big in this game.

This will be a great game. I think Deming has beat Bracken twice this year already (I apologize if I am wrong, no need to rip me if I am) and if this is the case it is very hard to beat a team 3 times in one year, so I like Bracken in this one. I also like Bracken to win it all, they have been playing well lately.

Corey Rogers continues to play well. Might be the most consistant player in the region night in and night out.

This will be an interesting game with a possible Rogers and Thelan matchup, however, I will take Rogers in this battle by a lot, IMO. Clark wins easy.

On a side note, Clark's leading scorer is Corey Rogers, so it would be Rogers and either Zollo or Stenzel, whichever is averaging more.

If you lose your top two scorers, you don't score as many points, I think?

Is that the final schedule????? I thought they would have to play all the teams in their district (ie Johnson Central???). Seems to be a pretty favorable schedule for the Indians. I hope with the success they had this past season that it will draw some more numbers for the program!

Is this the same Ben Nevels that was at Lloyd years back?

You could say the Indians are young, but not inexperienced, Taul, Spence, Colliver, are all returning starters and Lockett coming off the bench played valuable minutes last year. Rogers and Tipton have enough experience by now and have played enough not to use that as an excuse. Their bench might not be very deep which might be an issue.

Perhaps a big reason why Bellevue was able to get back in the game was that Cheetum was out of the game. Plus the fact that Cheetum was out of the game in the 4th must have meant Lloyd had a nice lead to begin with.

Any word on if this game will still be played tonight?

Coach Key has his boys playing well! Watch out for the Juggernauts, I have a feeling they will sneak up on someone in the postseason and stun some people.

Good road win for the Jackets against a very underrated Southern team. I would agree that perhaps a few weeks ago, Woodford probably looses this game, I think they are showing a lot more growth here in the past few weeks.

I remember those mid-to-late 90's teams, they had some pretty good talent and some good teams then.

I like Scott County in this one with thier pressure defense and uptemp style play, Scott County 79-74.

Handshoe has been playing extremely well all year, been a very solid scorer for the Indians, might just be the Indians leading scorer this year (not for sure though). Most people do not know of him b/c of the Prewitt kid, but he might just be one of the better players in the region that most people have just not yet heard about.

Good road win for the Indians, thought that the Asberry kid stepped up huge tonight, played really well off the bench.

Well if its Stanley, he still played last time the two teams met and MC won by 30 or so. I was expecting a name/player that had not played in a while.

Wondering the same thing and how long has he been out?

Montgomery County travels to Paris tonight to play thier district seed game. I like Montgomery in this one, but I think it will be closer than the first game between the two. I really think that the past several games against Lincoln, Tates Creek, and Mason have really helped the Indians to learn and grow as a team. Paris is a very dangerous team and when they are hitting shots they can beat a lot of teams. Any other thoughts?

Bench and JV players get a lot of minutes tonight.

Not trying to sound mean, rude, or whatever, but didn't they return most of, if not thier entire team from last year. If so there shouldn't be anything to figure out????? Regardless of whether or not they figure it out, they will not be back on top of the polls, too many other teams in NKY have shown they are better than Conner (Dixie, CovCath, New Cath, Ryle, etc). On the other hand, I think Coach Hicks in a mastermind at getting his teams ready to play in March, it seems every year his teams make a run. Perhaps that pressure of being atop the preseason standings did not fit well with his players and they would rather play the darkhorse again come tourny time.
